Oh, no, not this again.
Ten days in a row – same stupid comment.
Nice line-up. Hoping the hitters can get off to another quick start tonight vs Marcum
WCYF,
What are your other complaints this afternoon?
AJ…..Just stay on the mound and PITCH. Don’t turn your back like you slipped or fell in a hole. Man-up. Pitch with a purpose and don’t sulk. Get the ball and throw it.
Apparently, Hughes had better curves than Miss World 2010, Alexandra Mills.
Shame, these are from the Toronto system, including Gose and McDade, who’s leading in just about everything. All fastball hitters. They lead the Eastern League division. Here are the offensive numbers.

Do we get Dr. AJ or Mr.Burnett tonight?? Hope it’s lights out version….
A.J. hopefully learned a thing or two from Freddy last night.
Maybe he should pitch backwards?
Soft stuff mixed with the fastball.
Thanks GB, I’ll definitely be looking into that… I’ll wait till tomorrow when I’m at work and have the time for such leisurely activities
Shame, 6 of their players made the All Star team. A lot of fire power, even for AA hitters. Most importantly, Hughes held the velocity throughout the game and threw everything he had. a 100 pitch AAA start next week should get him ready to go.
craigcalcaterra Luis Vizcaino suspended for PEDs. In other news, Luis Vizcaino is still alive.
Ledger_Yankees CC said he pretty much B-buttoned his agent the last two weeks of ’08. He was gonna go on short rest despite his protests.
GB, been following your minor league updates. I have a question. Might be a dumb one, not knowing the details, but …
Is there any chance of Manny B. being a lefty option/lefty specialist out of the pen for the stretch run? Too many IP? Not ready?

********************
And, btw, thanks for all the updates.
GB – by my reckoning, Phil’s next start would be next Monday. If all’s well, then he could start for NYY before the ASB, I think the Saturday before. You could give him his first start back after the break, but then that’s one less start to evaluate his performance to see if they need to trade for a starter. Hate to think that way, but you have to consider the possibility at least.
awwww…..
Joba_62 Be sure to get those all-star votes in for @russellmartin55 @NickSwisher @cgrand14 @teixeiramark25 before the deadline!! Let’s do it!
Ledger_Yankees sat is still tba: colon has to go through drills first.
Back to Hughes for a minute: Seems like years since he took the mound at The Stadium.
I know he’s not back yet, but its exciting to read about how much progress he has made with this latest start.
Yankees can use his right arm to secure more wins.
Ledger_Yankees Yankees deciding what’s next for Hughes.
AndrewMarchand No timetable on Jeter. Definitely will have multiple Rehab games. It means likely Cleveland is the earliest he comes back.
Erin,
That must mean that Hughes looked impressive. Before he pitched today, it seemed they were leaning towards at least 2 more starts.
If Noesi piggybacks Hughes, I wouldn’t mind seeing him back with the team. But, it’s probably more prudent to have him get a start with Scranton.
Aldo, I wouldn’t bring Banuelos up before the last week or so…just to hang around the team and learn from Sabathia and Rivera. I think that Feliciano reurns by August and hopefully, Logan is straightened out.
A sure 0 for 27 if I ever saw one…Does Girardi want to lose this game?!
Only four players (Albert Pujols, Ralph Kiner, Eddie Matthews, and Adam Dunn) have hit more homeruns in their first nine seasons than Tex, and he still has half a season to go. That’s pretty nuts.”

Ledger_Yankees Cashman says he liked what he saw from Hughes.

———————————————————————————————————————-
Joe, you might be right. Would like to see hughes get over 100-110 pitches at Scranton. It would give the rotation two more turns to evaluate and figure out where to slot Hughes. It’ll be a touchy situation for somebody. They’ve all earned their spots.
Same lineup from yesterday!! Where is Cervi and Jones!! What game was he watching yesterday? This is an obvious case of Girardi asleep at the wheel. Its gonna be another one of those nights. Buckle up folks.
Erin,
He didn’t say “it’s a process.” I think we’re getting close.
Joe and GB-The Yankees have several options to choose from. Which direction they will go is the better question.
I think Hughes will benefit from another rehab start. Push the pitch count to 100 or more.
If that occurs, he would be in line to start the July 9th game vs Tampa
m- LOL
WTP – agreed, get the pitch count to 100+ in Scranton. If all’s good, then Saturday the 9th. Who knows, Phil could get the W, and Jeter could get 3K.
From one of our intrepid reporters/spys at the game today, she learned that Hughes was a lot bigger than imagined. “Not fat…just big and solid in the shoulders and legs .” Hughes is Roger Clemans big.
Uh oh, Phil is big…
BTW, where has Rich in NJ been? Haven’t seen him in a while.

I can see the Red Sox/Ortiz thing getting nasty.
He gets mean and ugly when he feels disrespected.

bojo,
Got pissed on for stating it today. “Ten days, smam stupid comment.”
same, I meant, and it was WCYC.

Ignore it. He can’t stand others having fun.
BloggingBombers The Cubs just released Doug Davis. You know, the guy that dominated the Yankees in Chicago less than two weeks ago. #YouCantPredictBaseball
bojo,
I come here for fun.
I’d sign Davis for a look and see for LOOGY—probably go to St Louis though….

Me too…and I stay for the popcorn.
Bojo,
Good idea. Think I’ll make some.
Back later for the game…see ya!
Ledger_Yankees Here’s what makes CC Sabathia who he is: His agent was pleading with him not to pitch on short rest in ’08 so he stopped answering the phone
Ledger_Yankees ?I just stopped wanting to hear it.” — Sabathia, who says he didn’t talk to his agent for the last two weeks of ’08. Impressive.
YankeesPR Joe Girardi is saying hey to fans entering the stadium today! http://yfrog.com/h8ft6ygj
Be nice if the hitters could stake AJ to a seven-run lead tonight. Mind you, he’d probably blow it.

Can he do the same this offseason when his agent is telling him to opt out?? Please???

or he could pitch 8 innings and give up 1 run and take a loss like against the indians,
so funny how this guy gets bashed and hes a good #2 or #3 starter….
so funny how this guy gets bashed and hes a good #2 or #3 starter….
Yeah, and I’m the Queen Mother! Too funny for words. True, he hasn’t had much run support lately but at best, he’s a No. 4 or No. 5 starter.
CC pitches to the game situation and wins. AJ pitches to the game situation and loses. If you score 7, he’ll give up 8. If you don’t score at all, he’ll be the one to give up one run. I have more faith in Garcia and Nova than I do in Burnett. Garcia might throw slop but he doesn’t walk many or lose his cool under pressure.
If I am Brian Cashman I have to be thinking about pitching match-ups in the post season and making a deal if he can. Big if. We have a solid ace and number one in Sabathia, but we really don’t have a strong number two. A Cliff Lee, a Dan Haren, a Matt Cain, etc.
If it were me I’d give Hughes one more start a AAA.
