With uncertainty looming in the rotation after the Luis Severino news, J.A. Happ helped put the New York Yankees at ease with a strong debut.
Lefty hurler J.A. Happ might be MLB’s frontrunner for Comeback Player of the Year after Saturday.
The left-handed pitcher begins his year with a stellar start for his New York Yankees, throwing two perfect innings in the team’s spring training opener on Saturday. Granted the start against the Toronto Blue Jays, Happ struck out three at George M. Steinbrenner Field.
Toronto eventually prevailed in a 2-1 final, but Happ’s debut, particularly his fastball, impressed those gathered in Tampa.
