At 2-10 no I was not panicking but said they must get it going. Hughes won't be needed much? Did you see Garcia throwing meatballs last night? If you don't think Hughes is an important piece for the Yanks and that their success hinges on him then you obviously don't follow the Yanks closely or know what Cashman's ultimate plans are. Trade or no trade, Hughes development and recovery is important to what the Yanks do. He is essentially their Buchholz.

DEAD ARMS HAPPEN!!! The Yankees will make a deal before the deadline. Millwood is gone. You act like Boston is THAT much better. Were YOU panicking when the Sox started the way they did? Come playoff time, if they went out and had gotten another starter then Hughes won't be needed as much if at all. I'd worry about your team too. Will Beckett collapse and go back to the pitcher he was LAST season? Will Crawford live up to the contract? He went there complaining from day1 about ldng off

You always have your eyes on the Yanks becaise you seem to be a closet Yankees fan who've met Veritek once. All you talk about is the Yanks and Tek and just now you spent most of the time talking about Phil Hughes and the rest of the Yankees rotation. you want to " snicker "??? Snicker about yout terrible Pen or the fact that the guy you're payin $150.million to is batting 8th!!!!! or the fact that Dice K is wilder than Six Flags. Just be ready to watch the Sawks play Golf once October comes.
