Luis Severino's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Mets starting pitcher Luis Severino had his best start of the season on Sunday Night Baseball against the Chicago Cubs, throwing six shutout innings to pick up his fifth win of the season in a 5-2 victory. Severino was firing on all cylinders in this one, allowing just three hits and striking out ten while walking none. It was his first double-digit strikeout effort of the season and the first time he allowed no runs in a start. Some fantasy managers in deeper leagues may have given up on Severino after a bad start against the Texas Rangers last week, and he is worthy of an add in those formats. In standard size leagues, taking a shot on Severino could make sense if pitching is a need, but he will have to show this more often to become a must-roster player.

The New York Mets have tweaked their starting rotation slightly, moving right-hander Luis Severino up to Sunday's contest at Wrigley Field against the Cubs, with left-hander David Peterson being pushed back. Severino will now get a better matchup, as he was previously slated to start against the first-place New York Yankees on Tuesday. Peterson will now likely start early next week in a tougher matchup against the Bombers. Severino allowed a season-high six earned runs on eight hits while walking one and striking out one in 6 1/3 innings his last time out against the Rangers. Overall, he's been serviceable with a 3.52 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 84 1/3 innings and 14 starts, but he's also carrying a career-low 17.4% strikeout rate. Peterson is a perfect 3-0 with a 3.97 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with only 12 K's in 22 2/3 innings over his four starts for the Mets in 2024.

New York Mets starting pitcher Luis Severino teased a no-hitter in Monday's 3-1 loss to the visiting Chicago Cubs, spinning eight innings of one-run ball on one hit and two walks with five strikeouts. Chicago's offense offered little to no resistance up until the late stages of the game, but Dansby Swanson's bloop single in the eighth inning broke up the no-hit bid to spoil a masterful performance out of Severino. It still added to a great start to the campaign for the 30-year-old right-hander, however, who looks revived in the early stages of the year following a strong spring training and now owns a 2.31 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and 31:11 K:BB through six regular-season starts (35 innings) for the Mets. Severino will take a ton of momentum into his next scheduled start on Saturday on the road against the Tampa Bay Rays, where he'll remain worth deploying in all mixed fantasy leagues.

New York Mets right-hander Luis Severino allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in Saturday's 9-6 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Severino did not factor into the decision. The 30-year-old had a bases-loaded walk in the second inning for his only earned run of the game. He cruised through the rest of his start and was in the line for the win until the Mets bullpen imploded by allowing five runs in the eighth inning. The former New York Yankee owns a 3.60 ERA, 1.60 WHIP, and 13:2 K: BB across 10 innings in 2024. Severino will look to build on Saturday's solid start in a tough matchup on the road against the Braves on Thursday.

New York Mets starting pitcher Luis Severino tossed five innings of one run ball versus the Washington Nationals in Grapefruit League action on Sunday. He also allowed four hits with one walk and four strikeouts. The 30-year-old signed a one-year contract with the Mets this offseason after being a New York Yankee for the entirety of his career. Severino had a rough go of it in 2023 with injuries and an ugly 6.65 ERA, but he has shown top tier stuff previously and owns a career 3.79 ERA. Severino has struggled with injuries as he hasn't made over 19 starts since 2018, but he has been mostly productive when on the mound. With an ADP of 298, Severino makes for an intriguing late-round target in deeper leagues. He is now 2-0 with a 1.29 ERA in four starts this spring with 12 strikeouts in 14 innings.
