I don't get what there's not to like. It's one year and the stuff looks good. He was still throwing the ball well. We're not talking about Syndergaard levels of cooked here.

As long as this isn't the only move they make I'm fine with it. They better add Yamamoto or another top tier starter, and not act like this is the final piece of the puzzle
I guess but now we have Megill, Luchesi, Buto and later Peterson who fit this project mold. Let's get some proven commodities in here.

So how many starts would you give him to turn it around?
I'd have more faith in him getting it together than Megill. It's a gamble worth taking and he's gonna be comfortable still being in NY and around a familiar face (Mendoza). The guy still throws mid to upper 90s and is 29. It's one year and only one move and the type they had to make ( high risk/high reward) w/ so many holes in the rotation.

If you're going to sign Yamamoto you're going to need depth. We have plenty of depth now to cover a 6 man rotation as we ease Yamamoto in. Severino is low risk high reward.

I would say low risk. It's only a 1 year 13 million dollar deal.
