Luis Severino News
New York Mets right-hander Luis Severino allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in Saturday's 9-6 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Severino did not factor into the decision. The 30-year-old had a bases-loaded walk in the second inning for his only earned run of the game. He cruised through the rest of his start and was in the line for the win until the Mets bullpen imploded by allowing five runs in the eighth inning. The former New York Yankee owns a 3.60 ERA, 1.60 WHIP, and 13:2 K: BB across 10 innings in 2024. Severino will look to build on Saturday's solid start in a tough matchup on the road against the Braves on Thursday.
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.
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.

After totaling just 18.0 IP in the three years prior (due to a shoulder injury then TJS), Luis Severino should feel good about the 102.0 IP of work he got through in 2022. The 19 starts saw Severino put up a 7-3 W-L record, 3.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 112 Ks. He had a 60-day IL stint between July and September, although it appears as though the Yankees were extremely cautious with Severino given his recent injury issues and he could have pitched again long before he did eventually return. He made three starts to close out the regular season before starting twice in the postseason so fantasy owners shouldn't be concerned about Severino beginning the 2023 season limited. Although it's unlikely the Yankees will let him reach the 191.1 IP he had in 2018. Severino was able to put up strikeout numbers similar to what he had pre-2019, with a 27.7% K% (28.2% K% in 2018) and 12.3% SwStr% (12.4% SwStr% in 2018). That was despite a drop in his fastball velocity from 97.6 MPH in 2018 to 96.3 MPH in 2022. Severino's 2.94 xERA, 3.38 xFIP and 3.37 SIERA all tell us he wasn't lucky last year so if he can stay healthy, Severino has the potential to be an SP2 despite being the ~33rd starting pitcher taken in drafts (~118 ADP).
