Maxman Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 The Yankees have 3 starters that are leaving a lot to be desired right now. And yet they are at .500. Interesting. They will turn it around. Consider yourself warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicBizkit87 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I am a Hughes supporter, and I didn't want him traded to Minnesota, but I think he should be sent down for a start or 2 to get his confidence back, because if this continues on, we may never see anything out of Hughes, and it'll prove we should have gone for that trade. I say give Hughes one more start, and if he ****s up, send him down to AAA for a start or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Injuries, medicore pitching and untimely hitting. To be at .500 is a minor miracle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsMan57 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Nothing wrong with a young pitcher struggling, but I watch Hughes pitch and I am just not impressed with his "stuff". Where is the 95MPH fastball he supposedly had and was talked about for years in the minors? His breaking ball is very hittable more times than not. He doesnt have a change, his slider is average. Right now he looks like a classic tweener pitcher; doesnt throw hard enough to overpower guys and doesnt have a good enough arsenal of pitches to be a precision pitcher. Right now he is looking like a #3-#4 starter, and if we didnt give that up for Johan Cashman needs to be hung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what Yankee fan wouldn't be thrilled with the Yankees being .500 right now with the way they've been playing. You basically have only 2 good starters, 1 old one who can be good or bad, and two young prospects who haven't shown up yet, a bunch of injuries, and yet they still have a .500 record.

Barton Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I still have not seen the Hughes that I saw in the Texas no hitter and before that. His fastball has been garbage ever since he came back and his curve ball has not been the same either. I dont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 On the bright side, Hughes is keeping his innings pitched down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you are kidding but Hughes and Kennedy have less restrictions on them then Chamberlain does. Although at this rate Hughes might have to play Winter Ball to pick up arm strength after a 131 2/3 IP season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor99 Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 All kidding aside, there really seems to be something wrong with him. His + fastball has gone missing, as well as his pinpoint control. Some time in Columbus would probably help him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Won't get you into the HOF, will it? This used to be the reason the Yankees used to trade their youngins, before they had a chance. like Doug Drabek when heir Schickelgruber lead with an iron fist.

OJDidIt Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 This used to be the reason the Yankees used to trade their youngins, before they had a chance. like Doug Drabek when heir Schickelgruber lead with an iron fist. The yankees are doomed. Now they will panick and put Joba in as a starter, losing the best setup man in the game and a potential future papelbon-like closer. It's all downhill for the Yanks. It's all about entropy. The dynasty is over. Tell Ca$hboy to post his resume on monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 He is hurt and on the DL. Makes sense. I knew once his ERA broke 8 that something wasn't right with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
