My Take
Dellin Betances is the kind of hometown story I never tire of. Raised in Washington Heights and pitching for the Yankees right in his own city, he turned a towering 6-foot-8 frame into four straight All-Star selections. What I find striking is how intimidating he must have been at the plate, that long reach unleashing fastballs and a wipeout curve. Injuries cut his prime shorter than fans wanted, but I respect arms that overwhelm hitters rather than finesse them. He remains, for me, a vivid emblem of local talent making good on the biggest stage.
