The Yankees bullpen is stacked. And free agent signee Adam Ottavino is already getting rave reviews for his “disgusting slider.”
Aroldis Chapman’s knee has passed every test thus far this spring; Tommy Kahnle and Jonathan Holder each pitch 1.1 innings of scoreless ball on Sunday — and Zack Britton and Chad Green had solid bullpen session before the Yanks’ 6-5 win over the Pirates.
However, it was Dellin Betances, who entered his third Grapefruit League game, that still looks to be on shaky ground. Naturally, it’s Spring Training, not to mention Betances arrived in Tampa a week later than the other pitchers due to the birth of his child, so he’s playing catchup.
