And maybe the fact that they didn't know how severe Sabathia's injury was, they might need a spot starter? Who better than Hughes?

At this point, I think the beaten horse is now dead. Girardi is not capable of managing this team, and the Yankees are not likely to win the division with him at the helm. The only question left is will the Yankees desire to win trump their wanting to avoid the embarrassment of Torre's replacement not lasting two years.

In other words, they've lost 8 of the last 12 games. Maybe losing 2 of 3 to the Nats at home made more sense than it seemed? Yanks are 4-8 since the start of the last Red Sox series.

That kind of disfunction reeks of the Knicks. [412] They’ll never do it because looking bad about Torre seems to be more important than winning. That kind of disfunction reeks of the Knicks.

Girardi has gotten to the point where you can take your pick about which move cost the Yankees the game.

He hasn't done horribly, perhaps, but he hasn't distinguished himself and I think the team needs to be goosed. I doubt a coach firing would do the trick.
