Just for the fun of it, I'm peeking at some advanced stats. I thought perhaps Sevvy would throw less pitches per batter than most, but his average number of pitches per hitter is 3.90, compared to the league average of 3.86. Of course, he's getting a lot of those batters out, so he still has great economy of pitches, especially since he has a high K rate. I set the neutralized pitching tool to 1968 Dodgers, and under those conditions, Sevvy would have a 1.18 ERA this season, though the low-scoring Dodgers would have restricted his record to 9-4. What bums...We think WE'RE in a slump? I have noted that Severino leads the league in something called RE24, described below. This is impressive when combined with his league-leading FIP. It would seem that when the chips are down, he finds that little extra, focuses and gets out of situations with fewer runs allowed than anyone else in the game. There are some fine Cy Young Award seasons on the brew, but Severino needs not take a back seat to any of the others. Now leading in wins, he will garner more attention if that holds true, as well. RE24 -- Base-Out Runs Saved
Given the bases occupied/out situation, how many runs did the pitcher
save in the resulting play. Compared to average, so 0 is average, and
above 0 is better than averageI was hoping I could get an answer your semi-query about the 1-2-3 innings, chiyankee. Perhaps I still will, but I haven't found it yet. I agree though. He's one tough cookie, and his economy of pitches is getting him up among the league leaders in innings pitched...without wearing him down. Dang, he's starting to remind me of Bob Gibson on the mound. That defiant look. The aggressive pace. Now the 1.18 adjusted ERA is remindful of Gibby's amazing 1.12 season of 1968...the best $604,975.00 the Yankees could have spent this season... Thanks for info., inger. It just seems like with Severino, there's a lot of innings that end quickly. |

I think he'll remind you of Gibson, too... I can see the comparison....to be Gibby he would need to knock some guys off the plate, and then stare at them... ....it a different game today, as far as intimidating hitters, but hitters have to respect that 100 mph fastball and his command of it... |

Gibson would spend his career on suspension these days. Of course the fellow Severino went to for career advice was known to drill a hitter now and again. He was vilified for it, whereas Gibson was glorified.
That’s a sort of demonstration of the progression (or regression if you wish) of the game to the point we’ve reached today.
If a pitcher even looks at the hitter the umpires want to issue warnings to both benches...

Yankees option Jonathan Loaisiga to Triple-A, activate A.J. Cole
Following tonight’s loss to the Braves, the Yankees optioned Jonathan Loaisiga to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. A.J. Cole has been activated from the disabled list as the corresponding move. Aaron Boone indicated that Loaisiga could return for next Monday’s doubleheader versus the Orioles. It is unclear what the Yankees plan to do to cover Masahiro Tanaka’s rotation spot in the meantime.

Maybe Tanaka will cover Tanaka's spot? |

Maybe it's time to give Justus Sheffield a stab at it. He's been pitching well in AAA. Nice ERA, low hits per nine...He's only 22, but that's such a great age for nice, lively arms...
Imagine if the Mets would have said of Doc Gooden...He's only 19. Wait five more years before we bring him up...

Imagine if the Mets would have said of Doc Gooden...He's only 19. Wait five more years before we bring him up... It seems a no-brainer that with a spot start open, and a young stud like Sheffield in the minors, that he be brought up for that start....if he's in the proper rotation cycle of course.... The guy has electric stuff, and if he can command it, could be very good.......... |

Yankees' Gardner not pleased with pace-of-play fines
New York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner told Newsday that he was fined "thousands of dollars" in June for violating Major League Baseball's pace-of-play rules and he's not happy about it.
The New York Post reported the total Gardner was fined was approximately $3,500.
Gardner told reporters that "nothing I say about that is going to do me any good," but he made it clear to Newsday that he isn't happy about being singled out for taking too long, in MLB's opinion, to get into the batter's box.
"My agent started taking care of it," Gardner said. "I told them don't talk to me about it. I've got more things to worry about than taking three seconds too long to get to the box. Somebody else can (throw pickoff throws to first base) 27 times in a game and waste 15 minutes of everybody's time, and I get fined thousands of dollars taking three seconds too long to get in the box."

The guy has electric stuff, and if he can command it, could be very good.......... Sheffield had another strong outing on Monday on the normal 5 day rotation. However, in his 3 starts prior to that, the Yanks elected to skip 6, 6, and 8 days respectively between his starts. If the Yanks want to, they can skip 6 days between his starts again, and he would be lined up to start one of the DH games. Keep in mind that Montgomery is still technically on the 10 day DL. If they want Sheffield to start one of the DH games, all they have to do is shift Montgomery to the 60 day DL and add Sheffield. They would not have to make any other roster moves because MLB rules allow adding a 26th player for DH. The Yanks could start him and then send him back the minors. If he makes a start there, it would be better for him to go back to the minors because of All Star break- don't need him to sit around for 10 days or so between starts- go back to AAA, get the work in- and if they want to make Sheffield the big "deadline add," he would be ready after the break. |

I think that would be great , bringing Sheff up for the double header. Gotta see what the kids got against the big boys sooner or later... Might as well make it NOW. |
