As far as Hughes is concerned , he has proven tonight he is NOT a starter, he is a reliefer and it is time the Fo owns up to that. Respectfully... If you had your way, the Yankees wouldn't be able to field 25 guys night to night. Stop listening to thirty different sports outlets every day. It's a long season. You're giving me whiplash. You are so right about the off season being better here

Certainly something to build on Its always the same though, something to build on never becomes the real thing. Four runs in 5.2 innings is still a 6.92 ERA.

Four runs in 5.2 innings is still a 6.92 ERA. Tonight wasn't the same thing. He kept the wheels from falling off. The 4th run while charged to Hughes was logan throwing gas on the fire. He has been horrible so far this year but i thought he looked pretty good tonight.

Also giving up the lead right after the offense gives him one. They ain't getting any runs anyways however. The pitcher would need to pitch a shutout to win. NC...

NYYGuy Posts: 3,304	Brian Matusz is not a good pitcher. If all the Yankees could get is one run off a guy like that...then I don't think Hughes should be blamed for losing. I thought Hughes looked all right, other than a couple of pitches he probably wishes he could get back. Velocity was clearly there and his pitches had some movement. Lets see if he improves in his next start.

That's terrible especially when you're fighting for your job. The guy needs to be sent down. Maybe it would embarass him into realizing that he needs a lot of improvment. NC...

His velocity was fine, and his pitches had movement on them. He looked all right. Not good, not horrible, just all right. Much better than he's been. Like I said I'm not going to blame him for a loss when the Yankees only get 1 run off a stiff like Matusz.

A good pitcher (note that I said good not great) will only give up 1 less run than his offense gives him. He gave up 4 in less than 6. What's that, an ERA of 6? NC...
