Luis Severino has known German since 2014 and said the two are “good friends.”
“Every time I talk to Domingo, it’s about baseball,” Severino said Monday. “[It’s] about getting better. Every time we have a conversation, it’s about us or him getting better. That’s the only thing I have in mind. Helping the team get to the World Series.”
That’s a different tone than what Zack Britton used last week, when the lefty said of German, “You don’t get to control who your teammates are and that’s the situation. I don’t agree with what [German] did. I don’t think it has any place in the game or off the field or at all.”
Severino added he thought German was holding up under the added scrutiny.
“I think he’s handling it really good, with all the stuff going on,” Severino said. “I haven’t talked to him about that a lot.”
