Yankees ace pitcher Luis Severino is unlikely to play until mid-July, according to General Manager Brian Cashman when asked his injured hurler last Sunday.

“You won’t see him until after the All-Star break, in our minds” Cashman said on MLB Network Radio’s “The Front Office.” The All-Star game is scheduled for July 9, with their first game of second half of the season set for Friday, July 12 hosting the Toronto Blue Jays.
