Luis Severino DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Athletics starting pitcher Luis Severino let up nine hits and eight earned runs over four innings of work in a 12-2 loss to the New York Yankees on Sunday. He hit a batter, struck out two, and issued two free passes while totaling 97 pitches (57 strikes). The Yankees jumped on Severino early, scoring five runs in the top of the second inning before he could get the second out in the frame. He'd let up another run an inning later on an Oswaldo Cabrera double before unraveling again in the fifth and finally getting lifted. It was easily his worst outing of the season, but the 31-year-old has now coughed up 12 runs over his last ten innings and four or more in a start four times. He'll bring a 4.70 ERA and 1.32 WHIP into a road matchup with the San Francisco Giants late next week. Severino boasts the lowest strikeout rate of his career (17.2%) while affording batters a .295 xBA against him.

Athletics starting pitcher Luis Severino was nearly able to throw a complete game during Saturday's contest against the Milwaukee Brewers. The right-hander worked eight innings, allowing three hits, and one earned run in the win. Somehow, Severino was able to work this deep into a game while only registering one strikeout. The right-hander has looked good lately with one earned run or less in each of his last two starts. It appears Severino is back on track after a few rough starts to begin the season. He'll be a favorable streaming option for his next start against the Chicago White Sox.

Athletics right-handed pitcher Luis Severino started his 2025 regular season on a high note as he went toe-to-toe with Seattle Mariner's ace Logan Gilbert. Severino struck out six batters in six innings pitched, allowed three hits, gave up four walks, and didn't allow a run. The only concerning aspect of his night was his four walks and 57 percent strike percentage. He was able to work around the walks on Thursday, but he will need to clean that up moving forward. Nonetheless, his six scoreless innings resulted in a no-decision, as the Athletics bullpen coughed up the lead in the eighth inning. Fantasy Managers should be encouraged by Severino's first outing with his new team. Next up for the right-handed pitcher is a home matchup with the Chicago Cubs next week.
