NEW YORK -- Since the beginning of July, the once-dominating Luis Severino has looked like a far different pitcher.
Within that six-week stretch, the New York Yankees' ace has allowed more runs and home runs than he had in the three months prior. A string of comparatively haggard outings have caused his ERA to rise, his losses to increase, and the questions around him to mount.
After dropping yet another game Monday night, this time to the New York Mets in a make-up of a game that was rained out at Yankee Stadium, Severino's only answer was a simple one: He just has to get better.
