Mon Mar 2509:32Luis Severino Enjoying Success In Grapefruit League
New York Mets starting pitcher Luis Severino tossed five innings of one run ball versus the Washington Nationals in Grapefruit League action on Sunday. He also allowed four hits with one walk and four strikeouts. The 30-year-old signed a one-year contract with the Mets this offseason after being a New York Yankee for the entirety of his career. Severino had a rough go of it in 2023 with injuries and an ugly 6.65 ERA, but he has shown top tier stuff previously and owns a career 3.79 ERA. Severino has struggled with injuries as he hasn't made over 19 starts since 2018, but he has been mostly productive when on the mound. With an ADP of 298, Severino makes for an intriguing late-round target in deeper leagues. He is now 2-0 with a 1.29 ERA in four starts this spring with 12 strikeouts in 14 innings.

Mon Mar 413:13Luis Severino Looking Sharp Early On
New York Mets right-hander Luis Severino is penciled in as the No. 2 starter behind lefty Jose Quintana to open the 2024 season. He looked sharp in his Grapefruit League debut last week, touching 98 mph on his final pitch while showing good ride on his fastball early on. Severino's mechanics got a little out of whack in his second inning of work, but the Mets aren't concerned at this point. The sinker that he added late last year was moving more down than in to right-handed hitters, and he's working on getting more of that arm-side run to make the pitch effective. The 30-year-old was hurt by injuries in his final season with the Yankees in 2023 and finished with a rough 6.65 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in just 89 1/3 innings, but with better health, he could bounce back and be a worthwhile streaming option in deeper fantasy leagues.

Wed Nov 29 202318:57Mets, Luis Severino Finalizing One-Year Deal
The New York Mets and free-agent right-hander Luis Severino are finalizing a one-year, $13 million deal on Wednesday, according to sources familiar with the deal. The 29-year-old will join a Mets starting rotation in serious need of reinforcements after he spent eight years pitching for the New York Yankees. Severino didn't exactly live up to the high expectations when he initially joined the Yankees, mainly due to various injuries. He wasn't very good in his final season in the Bronx with a 6.65 ERA in only 89 1/3 innings, and his season ended prematurely due to a high-grade oblique strain. Severino should be fully healthy by the start of spring training in 2024, though, and he will be locked into their starting rotation to begin the year.

Sun Nov 19 202314:39Mets Showing Interest In Luis Severino
Free-agent starting pitcher Luis Severino reportedly has at least eight teams interested in his services. According to Will Sammon, the New York Mets are one of the teams showing interest in the right-hander hurler. Severino is coming off a terrible 2023 season, but has a strong track record. Last season, Severino posted a 6.65 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, and 79/34 K/BB ratio across 18 starts. Possibly, he lands a multi-year deal, but could have to settle for a one-year prove it type of deal this offseason. The Mets could certainly use the help in the rotation with multiple voids to fill. On paper, Severino seems like a good fit, but we'll have to wait and see if the two can make a deal.

Tue Nov 7 202322:47Luis Severino Progressing From Oblique Injury And Attracting Interest
Free-agent right-hander Luis Severino's (oblique) rehab is going well and he's back to throwing and is currently feeling good, and there has been interest in him in from as many as eight teams. The New York Yankees aren't believed to be one of them. Severino missed the final month of the 2023 season due to a high-grade oblique strain, but he should be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season, barring any setbacks this winter. The 29-year-old threw only 89 1/3 innings for the Yankees this season due to injury and wasn't good with a 6.65 ERA and 1.65 WHIP. The Dominican hurler is a two-time All-Star, though, and went 7-3 with a 3.18 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 19 starts for New York in 2022 and could be a nice bounce-back candidate in real life and fantasy next season.

Sat Sep 9 202322:44Luis Severino Out For Season With High-Grade Oblique Strain
New York Yankees right-hander Luis Severino (oblique) will miss the remainder of the 2023 season after being diagnosed with a high-grade left oblique strain on Saturday. The 29-year-old was pulled from Friday's start versus the Milwaukee Brewers with a left side issue. He was later diagnosed with an oblique strain. The right-hander finishes the season with a 6.65 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, and a 79:34 K: BB across 89 1/3 innings in 2023. Severino is an impending free agent next offseason, and it's entirely possible his career as a Yankee could be over. The veteran will look to fully recover this offseason from his oblique strain and rebound in 2024 after a dismal 2023 campaign.

Sat Sep 9 202300:03Luis Severino Leaves Friday's Start With Side Issue
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino was pulled from Friday's start versus the Milwaukee Brewers due to a left side injury and he will undergo diagnostic testing on Saturday. The 29-year-old was in visible discomfort while favoring his left side and had to come out of the game before recording an out in the fifth inning. Severino allowed two earned runs on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts in four innings before his night ended. It remains to be seen if the oft-injured right-hander is dealing with an oblique strain, which could end what has been a fall from grace in 2023 for the former Yankees ace. Severino has staggered to a career-worst 6.65 ERA and 1.65 WHIP with 79 punchouts during 89 1/3 frames this year.

Tue Aug 29 202300:37Luis Severino Pitches Gem Monday, Earns Win
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino improved to 4-8 in Monday's 4-1 win over the Tigers. Severino pitched seven scoreless innings, allowing five hits and no walks with eight strikeouts. This was the second consecutive strong outing for the 29-year-old, who has struggled mightily overall with a 6.64 ERA in 81 1/3 innings pitched. While injuries have kept Severino from accumulating big innings, he had delivered strong results when he did pitch prior to this season. While he now has two encouraging starts in a row, fantasy managers should still be cautious, particularly in his next start at the Astros. At this point, fantasy managers cannot afford to trust him.

Wed Aug 9 202317:16Luis Severino Not Starting Wednesday
New York Yankees right-hander Luis Severino will not serve as the traditional starter on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox, with the Yankees choosing instead to use Ian Hamilton as an opener. The expectation is that the struggling Severino will be used as the bulk reliever after Hamilton goes an inning or two. Chicago has been a friendly matchup for opposing starters, but the 29-year-old Severino has been so bad this year that we can't recommend him as a streamer until we see signs of him turning a corner. In six starts since the start of July, Severino has surrendered 34 runs (32 earned) on 48 hits (nine homers) while walking 12 and striking out 22 in 25 2/3 frames. Not only has he been struggling, but he'll have a lower floor and ceiling as a streamer on Wednesday while coming out of the bullpen.

Wed Aug 2 202317:14Luis Severino To Start Friday Against Astros
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone confirmed that right-hander Luis Severino will start on Friday against the Houston Astros. Severino has been at risk of losing his spot in the starting rotation because of how bad he's struggled, but he'll get at least another turn to state his case to remain. The 29-year-old has gone 2-5 with a rough 7.49 ERA (6.27 FIP), 1.84 WHIP, 24 walks and 50 strikeouts in 57 2/3 innings pitched over 12 starts. He was even worse in his five starts in the month of July, giving up 29 runs (27 earned) on 43 hits (seven homers surrendered) while walking nine and striking out 18 in 21 2/3 innings. If fantasy managers are holding him for now, they should keep him on their benches on Friday in a tough matchup versus the Astros.

Wed May 17 202322:43Luis Severino To Start Sunday Against Reds
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) will make the start on Sunday on the road against the Cincinnati Reds, according to manager Aaron Boone. It will be Severino's first game of the 2023 season after he was injured in spring training. The 29-year-old right-hander didn't throw more than 58 pitches in either of his minor-league rehab outings, so he figures to be on a rather short leash this weekend in a great matchup against Cincy. Fantasy managers should be stoked to have him back, but expectations should be kept low for his first start on Sunday. Injuries have always been an issue for Severino, but when he's healthy, he has the ability to carry a fantasy pitching staff for stretches.

Thu May 11 202316:20Luis Severino To Make Next Rehab Start Tuesday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) will make his next minor-league rehab start on Tuesday for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, according to manager Aaron Boone. The Yankees aren't ruling bringing Severino back from the injured list after his start on Tuesday, but they also aren't committing to it. In his first rehab start on Wednesday for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Severino gave up a run in 3 1/3 innings of work (49 pitches). The 29-year-old Dominican right-hander is nearing his return to the Yankees' starting rotation for his 2023 debut, and he needs to be rostered in all fantasy formats. When he's right, he has the potential to be a fantasy ace.

Wed May 10 202312:04Luis Severino Goes 3 1/3 Frames In Rehab Start
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) made his first minor-league rehab start for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday and allowed a run on two hits (one home run) while walking one and striking out three in 3 1/3 innings pitched. Severino threw 49 pitches in the outing, so there's a chance that the Yankees activate him from the injured list to make his 2023 debut at some point early next week. The 29-year-old right-hander hasn't pitched in the big leagues at all this year, so he'll be a bit more risky than usual in his first few big-league starts for the Yanks. Still, Severino has ace potential for fantasy managers when he's healthy, so he needs to be rostered in all leagues right now.

Wed May 10 202309:01Luis Severino To Begin His Rehab Stint Friday
New York Yankees right-hander Luis Severino (lat) will make his first rehab start on Friday with Single-A Tampa, according to MLB.com. It will be the first of likely three rehab starts, and he'll aim to throw around 45 to 50 pitches. Severino has missed the entire 2023 season up to this point with a lat injury that he sustained during the spring. In 2022, the 29-year-old pitched to a 3.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 27.7% strikeout rate with seven wins over 19 starts. When he does return, fantasy managers should expect similar production from the Dominican.

Wed May 3 202316:32Luis Severino To Start Rehab Assignment Thursday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) will start his minor-league rehab assignment with High-A Tampa on Thursday. Severino is expected to make two or three rehab appearances on the farm before being activated from the injured list, barring any setbacks along the way. The 29-year-old two-time All-Star has yet to pitch in 2023 because of his right-lat injury that he suffered in spring training, but he should currently be stashed in all fantasy formats for his impending return to New York's beat up starting rotation. Injuries continue to be an issue for Severino, but he's shown that when he's healthy, he can operate as something close to a fantasy ace.

Mon May 1 202314:04Yankees Hoping Luis Severino Can Return In 2-3 Weeks
The New York Yankees are hopeful that starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) will be back in their starting rotation within the next two to three weeks, according to manager Aaron Boone. Severino is slated to start a minor-league rehab assignment with High-A Tampa later this week, and barring any setbacks down on the farm, he should rejoin the Yankees' rotation in the middle of May. Before being activated from the 15-day injured list, the 29-year-old right-hander is expected to make at least two rehab starts. Injuries have been an issue for the two-time All-Star, but he has ace potential for fantasy managers when he's healthy, so he needs to be stashed in all formats with his 2023 debut just around the corner.

Sun Apr 30 202317:02Luis Severino To Begin Rehab Assignment Soon
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) is expected to begin a rehab assignment on Tuesday or Wednesday. The right-hander threw a successful 40-pitch bullpen session on Friday. He continues to work his way back from a low-grade lat strain that has held him out of action since March. It appears Severino is close to returning to the big league rotation. It sounds like an early May return is possible for the right-hander. However, fantasy managers should be patient with Severino as the team will likely ease him back into action.

Tue Apr 25 202300:42Luis Severino Throws Live Batting Practice Monday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) threw two innings of live batting practice Monday and is scheduled to do so again on Friday. Severino was placed on the 15-day injured list in late March with a right lat strain. Manager Aaron Boone indicated that Severino would likely be built up to 70-80 pitches before being activated. The 29-year-old has been a fantasy asset in the past but got hit hard this spring, allowing a 9.00 ERA in 15 innings pitched. Fantasy managers should be wary of Severino whenever he does return.

Thu Apr 20 202315:04Luis Severino Throws Live Batting Practice Thursday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) threw live batting practice and some pitches in the bullpen on Thursday morning. He threw 35 pitches in total. Severino will see how he feels on Friday, but he thinks the plan is for him to head to Tampa and throw another live batting practice session before starting a minor-league rehab assignment. The 29-year-old is making good progress from another lat strain -- he dealt with the same injury in 2022 -- and should make his 2023 debut soon, barring any setbacks on his rehab assignment. His return later this month or in early May will be great news for a banged-up Yankees rotation and for fantasy managers. When healthy, Severino has ace potential.

Mon Apr 17 202312:21Luis Severino Throws Bullpen Sunday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) threw a "two-up" bullpen session on Sunday at Yankee Stadium, simulating an inning, sitting down and then returning for another inning. He suffered a right lat strain while working out after his March 21 start against the Tigers and was put on the 15-day injured list on March 30. Severino said he would be "blessed" to miss three to five starts during the regular season. He was hit hard in spring training, giving up 15 runs in 15 innings pitched. The 29-year-old right-hander has thrown three bullpen sessions in the last week now, so he should be getting close to starting a minor-league rehab assignment. Severino should be stashed in all fantasy leagues, as he has high-end fantasy potential when he's healthy.
