Fantasy Impact:
Severino’s 3.91 ERA and 1.24 WHIP over 31 starts with the Mets in 2024, after injury-plagued Yankees years, locks him in as the Athletics’ Opening Day ace. The 31-year-old’s durability last season fuels hope. Fantasy managers can roster him confidently, banking on his innings-eating stability to anchor Oakland’s rotation with solid production in 2025.
