Nestor Cortes, Jose Trevino altered Yankees' complexion at All-Star ... (Yanks Go Yard)

The New York Yankees sent a bunch of usual suspects to the All-Star Game, but it was a totally different story with Jose Trevino and Nestor Cortes.

From being released by the Orioles, traded by the Yankees, released by the Mariners, and re-signed by the Yankees, there’s no denying the novelty of this feel-good story. He’s genuinely taken aback and consumed by the moment! A few months later, he was an All-Star after failing to catch on for three-plus seasons in Texas. The lefty struck out two and induced a line out to center despite walking Pete Alonso and hitting Travis d’Arnaud with a pitch. That was reserved for catcher Jose Trevino and pitcher Nestor Cortes, who have had revered rises because of their unique styles of play and ebullient personalities. On top of that, their showing at the Midsummer Classic didn’t disappoint.

New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes followed up the 2022 MLB All-Star Game with an even bigger engagement.

And he established himself as an All-Star in 2022 with his current 2.63 ERA. He labored over those 5 games and his big league future was in question. He got his first taste of big league action back in 2018 with the Baltimore Orioles. After just four games, Cortes found himself on the Yankees in 2019.

Nestor Cortes Busted Out All The Moves As An All-Star (The Cold Wire)

One of the main attraction of the 2022 MLB All-Star Game was, believe it or not, New York Yankees pitcher Nestor Cortes. The southpaw has dominated.

And, although the pitch was a ball, it was a great offering: a slider with lots of horizontal and vertical movement that Alonso was tempted to swing at. One of these weapons is a funky delivery that he often tweaks to confound the hitter. The southpaw has dominated to the tune of a 2.63 ERA in 95.2 innings, with an incredible 99 strikeouts.

Perhaps the most interesting performance of this year's All-Star Game was from Nestor Cortes of the New York Yankees.

Nestor Cortes, although amusing to watch, is playing a huge part in this Yankees squad. New York's pitching is one of the main reasons the Yankees have been dominant this season. This season, Cortes has taken his game to another level. Fans throughout the entire MLB got to see Cortes' wacky windup. However, we have never seen anything like this from him before. His one walk came against New York Mets star Pete Alonso. It was in this at-bat that Cortes took his famous windup to a completely new level.
