Luis Severino set for another MRI after experiencing more discomfort
New York Yankees pitcher Luis Severino does not appear to be any closer to making his season debut.
According to Yankees manager Aaron Boone, Severino, who has been coping with shoulder inflammation, struggled in his last long toss and will fly back to New York for another MRI.
Luis Severino “didn’t feel great” the day after his latest flat ground long toss according to Aaron Boone.
Severino is headed back to NY for another MRI and exam to determine next step. #itsnotwhatyouwant

This is never what you want to hear, especially with a young, hard-throwing pitcher involved. Severino has been shelved for over a month now, and he doesn’t appear to be any closer to returning. Even if the MRI delivers relatively good news, it’s getting harder and harder to see him back before the end of the month, and that’s the best-case scenario.
