This is a brutal blow for the Yankees and an even bigger one for Luis Severino personally. Last season he worked so hard to come back from injury and return just in time to help New York in the playoffs and now this year he won’t even throw a single pitch. It’s a cruel turn of events for Sevy but I have no doubt he will work as hard as he can throughout the rehab process to come back stronger than ever.
For the second straight year now the Yanks will head into the regular season without Sevy at the front end of their rotation.
