Luis Severino's Next Start Pushed Back to Friday
Athletics starting pitcher Luis Severino has had his next scheduled start pushed back to Friday for the team's home game against the New York Yankees, per Martin Gallegos of MLB.com. Severino was originally supposed to start on Tuesday against the Seattle Mariners. However, the Athletics recalled left-handed pitching prospect Gage Jump to start against Seattle, opting to give Severino a few extra days of rest. Across 61 2/3 innings (11 starts) so far this season, Severino has recorded a 2-5 record with a 4.23 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, and 64 strikeouts. The 32-year-old's 24.7% strikeout rate is his best since 2022, but his 11.7% walk rate is his worst since 2019. He profiles as a capable deep-league innings eater, particularly when pitching away from the Athletics' hitter-friendly home environment in Sacramento.
