The Yankees’ rotation depth was a major cause of worry for fans prior to the season. Those fears were only stoked when Luis Severino’s trip to the injured list was originally announced just before Opening Day.
While Severino’s injury situation remains worrisome, the on-field rotation has remained surprisingly potent. A large part of that can be attributed to the emergence of a certain pitcher, who was previously considered to be depth, but is now putting up Severino-esque numbers across the board. That arm is none other than — you guessed it — Domingo German.
