LOS ANGELES — “Put me up against two grizzly bears and I’m not afraid,” Trey Yesavage said at the MLB Draft in July 2024.
Put me up against a $148 million lineup twice and I’m not afraid – Trey Yesavage, probably, before facing the Dodgers’ star-studded lineup in either of his World Series starts.
The second-youngest pitcher to start in a World Series (22 years and 88 days for Game 1 last week), and a pitcher with poise beyond his years, he’s either too young to know any better or he was built for this.
Probably the latter.
But it begs the question: Who the heck is this new kid who made $57,204 in MLB money this season? Who is this dude who really might have spoiled the Dodgers’ plan to further “ruin” baseball with a second consecutive World Series title with their big, fat payroll?
