2018 Yankees Thread...

Michael Kay just said A’s have the lowest batting average in majors against pitches that are 97 mph or more. And Sevi throws mostly fast balls. And the A’s hit the most fly balls in majors and Sevi allows the fewest fly balls on Yankee staff. And fly balls in Yankee Stadium means home runs. That’s why he thinks Boone went with Sevi over Happ. Plus if we win, it gives Happ 2 starts vs the Dead Sox whom he’s done real well against.

I actually think your latter reason drove this decision more than the former. If that's true that would be kinda crazy. Never look beyond what's in front of you now. Happ has undeniably been the better pitcher over the last two months.
