He's really talented," Boone said. "He's got three really good pitches. I think the question is, can he be a full-time starter?

I try to have good contact and look for my pitch and try to help my team." "according to https://www.mlb.com/yankees/news/domingo-german-strikes-out-9-beats-mariners/c-281956724
