Couldn’t agree with you more…I believe the Yankees won every game Hughes appeared in last Sept/Oct…that’s down the stretch…he’ll turn it around.

Phil Hughes showed us last year that he can pitch. Sure, he's having difficulties, but these are his first few starts in quite some time. Hughes is going to emerge as the #3 starter. With his stuff he's going to recover. Kennedy is questionable for a recovery, but not Hughes. I know with his last few performances that the skies are quite cloudy, but light will shine through against the White Sox this week. I promise.

The Jake (I think it's still Jacobs field) is a great stadium. It was one of the first "new but old" stadiums. That and Camden Yards. Hopefully the weather is OK. Hit the flats after the game.

Wasn't it 2006 when Giambi started off really slow and hit a ton the rest of the way? JGNYC,

Good point, Giambi does have 11 walks this year, so he still has a good eye…maybe it’s a mechanical thing…but really it does continue to be frustrating…

Wasn’t it 2006 when Giambi started off really slow and hit a ton the rest of the way?

According to Bill James, Bobby Abreu's daughter will be born in a much more efficient and team-friendly manner (just as soon as he gets married and has kids).

Mussina won't go inside to hitters to help the final year of his career and Giambi won't punch the ball to the left side of the field to help his cause against the shift.
