Anytime the Yankees send Luis Severino to the mound; they are presumptive favorites. The problem is, the other four starters that make up the staff offer little competitive advantage, which is why the time is fast approaching to bolster the pitching corps to ease the burden, both on the bullpen and the offense.
Following Saturday’s 11-4 beat-down at the hands of the Angels, one that saw Sonny Gray revert to his “pre-personal catcher” preciseness, Gray dared to claim his stuff was good but the results weren’t. Good for a batting practice pitcher, maybe.
Gray’s staff-worst ERA now sits at 5.
