Luis Severino was impressed enough with the Yankees’ October surge that he was willing to amend the half-joking comment he made about his former team during the regular season
The Mets right-hander in July revealed that he tweaked former teammates in a text chain by saying the Yankees have “two good hitters.”
He added that the Yankees and Dodgers appear on even footing headed to Game 1 of the World Series on Friday. Mets, Steve Cohen should spend whatever it takes to pry Juan Soto from Yankees “I think everybody was waiting for a Yankees-Dodgers World Series for a long time,” Severino said. “It’s going to be fun. I think they are equal talent, so it’s going to be hard to pick one.” The Mets won all four games in the Subway Series this year.
“For me, if we’re not winning the World Series I would rather the Yankees win the World Series,” Severino said in July. “I have made a lot of friends there, not just players, but coaches and staff that I stay in touch with, so if we don’t win it I would want the Yankees to.”
