I just feel bad for the kid, he really deserved a lot more. I was hoping someone could have gotten him off the hook. Now he's 0-2 but he's only been given 2 runs in 3 games.

and has looked pretty damn fine for a 21 yr old.

Last time I looked this forward to seeing a Yankee Pitcher, believe it or not, was Al Leiter's debut, heralded as their #1 Prospect........

When you look at his demeanor on the mound he doesn't look like a rookie. He really appears to have that veteran mentality.

...the thing that impresses me most about Seve is his control/location...seems like he hits the catcher's target nearly every time. And location is as important as having good stuff, probably more so.

I'm looking forward to him being in stripes for a while...

Andd with McCann and Murphy behind the dish that location trend will continue. We all know McCanns abilities behind the plate, heard comments that the Yankee Staff feels pretty god with Murphy in there as well. I don't know who made the decision to bring up Sevey and Bird but it proved to be a good one.

I know 2 games is not often enough to determine a players fate, but Severino, IMO, has made his statement, and won't be going back down.......

I think we found our Stealth Pitcher, without having to give up another long term decade; big bucks contracts, for a POS Premium Hi-dollar $$$ SP.......who would of probably blown his arm out.......
