THE ILK Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Ian Kennedy is doing better than all the pitchers the Yankees baby ruled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Ian Kennedy is doing better than all the pitchers the Yankees baby ruled. The same can be said for Jeff Karstens who they dumped....3.40 ERA and 43 Ks to 11 BBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeShelter Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 The same can be said for Jeff Karstens who they dumped....3.40 ERA and 43 Ks to 11 BBs. Yep. I never put too much stock into how they hype or handle young pitching. Hughes needs to come back strong and the killer B's down below need to live up to all the advance billing or Cashman and the Yanks are left with a poor resume on the decisions they made with their young pitching.

shawn306 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Well I can see the "Joba Rules" worked real well. Considering Joba's "fitness" routine I don't think we will be seeing him anytime soon. I hope between him and Hughes, Cashman finally gets the messages to stop babying these arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Joba's shoulder injury 3 years ago was really where it ended for him anyways. He was just a name at this point...He had a ton of talent, injuries happen. Hughes on the other hand is just a bitch and was never that good.

I hope between him and Hughes, Cashman finally gets the messages to stop babying these arms. Looks like the fitness routine consisted of nightly 12-ounce curls followed by a pizza run. As to The Rules-get Betances and Banuelos up here to fill in and cut the babying crap.They have nobody else; the staff is basically CC, Burnett every other turn, Robetrson, Mo and dreck. Look where The Rules got us; 3 prospects either gone (Kennedy), hurt (Joba) or useless (Hughes). Let these young guys pitch already and stop treating them like Fabrege eggs.

Bob Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I have not given up on Hughes yet. I gave up on Joba long before this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I never root for injury, but in Joba's case, I hope he tore the tendon during one of those fist-pump roid-rages you Yankee simps loved so dearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have not given up on Hughes yet. I gave up on Joba long before this. I did always say Hughes was going to be better. Just hoped it would be in the really good to great comparison. Not okay to out of baseball, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Smh @ giving up on Hughes at his age Joba at this point is never going to be a starter again which limits his impact a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
