Read the article earlier today…nice work!

I agree with Fabian, there’s no reason Hughes can’t have the success that some other top level pitching prospects have enjoyed (Weaver, Liriano, King Felix) when they came up. I’m looking foward to it and I expect him to do well.

The jump in innings that he made from 2005 to 2006 fell under my radar. Here’s to Phil being everything we hope he’ll be.

Good article Fabian, agree with your main points. The only actual live games I’ve seen of Hughes were in spring training which obviously doesn’t mean too much, but the highlights of him I’ve seen, especially his curveball, are really sweet.

If he gives us 6 solid innings, against that lineup, I’ll be satisfied.

I feel like I am about to go on a first date with a hot chick… Not quite nervous, not quite scared, not quite anything just a mix of feelings.
I am praying for atleast 6 innings tonight!

I think we may have another rainout…

btw, am I crazy or are the Yankees pulling a Theo Epstein with Hughes? That is, saying one thing about his development a while back, then doing the exact opposite now.

There wonty be a rain out…

I’ve been thinking about some nicknames for Hughes. The one I’ve come up with is King Philip. Anyway, I’m hoping for a solid 6 inning performance, 2 runs MAX. GO Yanks!!

Just my luck.

I just checked the MLB XI sked.  They won’t be showing the game tonight.  Now I’m rooting for rainout.  If I can’t watch…

EB in LA, that’s mean.

A. PHIL, Phil hates being called “Philip”.
