Jhony Brito probably wasn’t a name that too many were familiar with before this spring, when a disastrous string of injuries allowed him to break the Yankees’ rotation out of camp. It’s been an up-and-down season: a couple quality outings to start his career, an ERA above six from then to the middle of August, some detours to Scranton, and now, in five multi-inning appearance out of the bullpen since the 24th, a 1.29 ERA (2.55 FIP) covering 14 innings with just 11 hits and four walks. I like this version of Brito that we’ve seen as a true multi-inning reliever as of late, so I wanted to check out his most recent appearance against Boston and dive into the numbers to see if there’s anything there.
