FACTS/FLUKES: L. Severino, Torkelson, Gilbert, Pratto, Sborz

Severino is struggling with brutal ratios... Luis Severino (RHP, NYY) returned from Tommy John surgery last year with a 3.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, 27.7% K%, and 7.4% BB% in 102 innings. Severino dealt with a strained lat muscle on his throwing side that caused a delayed start to 2023. Unfortunately, Severino has destroyed the ratios, with a 6.66 ERA, 1.77 WHIP, 17.2% K%, and 9.4% BB% in 48.2 innings. Can Severino bounce back? What do his skills indicate?
