Severino (lat) will begin a throwing program Monday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to Marakovits, Severino said the pain and soreness in his strained right lat began to subside about four or five days after he was placed on the injured list July 14, but the Yankees still kept him shut down from activity for an additional two weeks. The right-hander will be eased into his throwing program by playing catch off flat ground from 60 feet Monday, and he should gradually increase his throwing distance by the end of the week. The Yankees likely won't have a precise timeline for Severino's return from the IL until he faces hitters again, but fantasy managers probably shouldn't bank on him being activated before mid-August.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Severino (lat) may be able to start throwing Monday, Max Goodman of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino has been on a planned two-week shutdown since he went on the injured list July 14, so he would be in the range of that timeframe if he is able to throw Monday. Boone suggested that the right-hander's return to a throwing program is contingent on the next few days going well for him, so it's not yet set in stone. Severino will likely need at least a week to ramp up once he starts throwing before he's able to return to the Yankees' rotation.

Severino (lat) isn't expected to throw for two weeks, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino landed on the injured list with a low-grade right lat strain Thursday, and he'll presumably require more than the minimum of 15 days on the shelf since he'll need time to build back up following his shutdown. A better timetable for his return will likely come into focus once he's able to begin a throwing program.

Severino was placed on the 15-day injured list with a low-grade right lat strain Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Severino exited Wednesday's start against the Reds due to shoulder tightness and underwent an MRI on Thursday. The right-hander missed most of the 2019 season with a lat strain, but his current injury is being classified as a low-grade issue. The right-hander will still be sidelined until at least July 29, and it's not yet clear when the Yankees expect him to return.

Severino was diagnosed with right shoulder tightness after being removed from Wednesday's start against the Reds, and he'll undergo an MRI on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old exited prior to the third inning of Wednesday's contest after tossing a couple warmup pitches. Severino allowed four runs over two innings -- including three straight home runs -- prior to leaving the game, but the only real concern is regarding the shoulder injury.

Severino was removed from Wednesday's start against the Reds with an apparent injury, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Severino surrendered back-to-back-to-back home runs during the second inning, and he was lifted before the third frame after throwing a couple warmup pitches. The specifics of the situation remain unclear, but the Yankees figures to update his status in the near future.

Severino (5-3) earned the win against the Pirates on Wednesday, allowing no runs on four hits while striking out three and walking none across six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Severino was lights-out, throwing 58 of 88 pitches for strikes across six frames. He limited the Pirates offense to just four hits. It was Severino's third quality start in a row, but his first game without allowing a run since June 4. The righty had back-to-back losses in his previous two games (both against the Astros), but he picked up a dominant win Wednesday. He'll take a 3.11 ERA into his next outing.

Severino (4-3) allowed two earned runs on three hits and two walks while striking out four across six innings to take the loss Thursday against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Severino has shown strikeout stuff all season -- he has 91 punchouts across 78 innings on the season -- but he induced only six swinging strikes across 87 pitches Thursday. Despite seemingly lacking his best stuff, Severino still managed to limit one of the better lineups in the league, with the only runs against him coming on a two-run double by Alex Bregman in the third inning. Severino also managed to work at least six innings for the seventh time in his last eight starts. Overall, he has a 3.35 ERA and a 91:23 K:BB across 78 innings on the season.

Severino (4-2) was charged with the loss Friday against the Astros after giving up three runs on five hits with seven strikeouts and two walks across six innings.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander kept Houston in check through five innings, but he returned for the sixth and served up a three-run homer to Kyle Tucker. It was still a solid start for Severino, though he continues to be hurt by the long ball, as he's surrendered 11 through 13 starts. He has a 3.38 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 87:21 K:BB across 72 frames this season and tentatively lines up to pitch versus the A's on Wednesday.

Severino yielded five runs on three hits and four walks over five innings in Sunday's loss to Toronto. He struck out nine and did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Severino was tagged early by Vladimir Guerrero's two-run shot in the first inning. He settled in to throw a few scoreless frames before George Springer hit a solo homer in the fifth. Severino was then charged with two more runs in the sixth while Miguel Castro was on the mound. It was the first time this season Severino issued more than two walks or allowed more than four runs in a start. The 28-year-old will carry a 3.27 ERA into his projected home start against Houston next week.
