not really ..... Yes he was doing bad for a while, but in his last 3 starts he's been good

News: Severino will start Wednesday's AL Wild Card Game against the Athletics. (Tue Oct 2)
Spin: The youngster had his rough patches this season but still finished the season with a 3.39 ERA, backed up by excellent strikeout (28.2 percent) and walk (5.9 percent) rates. He finished the season strong, allowing just four runs in 17.2 innings over his final three starts. He'll look to shake the memory of his performance in last season's AL Wild Card Game against the Twins, when he allowed three runs while getting just a single out.

the Key to Severino is that if they get to him early, it could be a bad day for the Yanks
not sure of the stat, but he gets in trouble early giving up the long ball. If he clears the 1st two innings, then he's tough moving forward

Last years wild card game he got pulled in the 1st inning.

4 hits/3 runs

[FONT=&quot]Since the All-Star break he`s 5-6 with an 5.57 ERA while allowing 76 hits and 39 earned runs.

He fucks up he`ll be gone in a heartbeat

A's have the pitching for sure and one of the new teams that can match Yankees bullpen. They also have clutch hitting. Yankees are better but not by a lot. Oakland for sure has a chance but as a lifelong Yankee fan hope NY wins.

Same. I'm sitting on +190 and think it's a good number, can't wait to see the closing number on this.
