When the Yankees acquired Domingo German back in 2014, he was a 22-year-old pitching prospect on the Miami Marlins who went on to miss the entire 2015 season due to Tommy John Surgery. After a positive but brief debut in 2017, his 2018 performance was volatile as he posted an ERA of 5.57. He’s made impressive strides in 2019, so much so that some are hailing him as the staffs new ace while Luis Severino and James Paxton sit on the IL.
German’s statistics make him a strong case for an unexpected All-Star appearance this summer.
