An Inside Chat with Luis Severino and Aaron Judge
Luis Severino: Hey Judge, what’s up, man? Congrats on the recent homer streak. Must feel good getting those runners home.
Aaron Judge: Thanks, Sevy! Yeah, it’s been a good run. But hey, how about you? You’ve been dominant on the mound lately. What’s your secret?
Luis Severino: Man, it’s all about mixing those pitches. Gotta keep hitters guessing. By the way, I saw that catch you made the other night—robbing that homer. That was insane!
Aaron Judge: Haha, yeah, that was a close one. Had to stretch a bit for it. Speaking of stretching, I noticed you’ve been hitting the gym pretty hard. You working on a new routine?
Luis Severino: Yeah, trying to stay flexible and strong. Keeps my arm fresh during those long innings. Plus, you never know when you need that extra juice for a fastball. You hitting the weights, too?
Aaron Judge: Definitely. Gotta keep the power for those long balls. But man, I’m always impressed by how you maintain your velocity deep into games. How do you do it?
Luis Severino: It’s all about conditioning and keeping the mechanics smooth. Can’t let fatigue mess up the motion. Speaking of motion, that new batting stance of yours looks pretty solid. What’s the story behind that?
Aaron Judge: Just trying to simplify things. Less movement, more focus on the ball. It seems to be working so far. We should hit the cage together sometime—might learn a thing or two from your bullpen sessions.
Luis Severino: For sure! And who knows, maybe I’ll pick up some tips on hitting. I mean, pitchers can hit too, right? Haha!
Aaron Judge: Absolutely, Sevy. Seeing you knock one out during BP would be something! Let’s make it happen. On that note, time to get back to it. See you on the field, brother.
Luis Severino: You got it, Judge. Let’s keep this momentum going. Catch you later!
