But it was Meatray that cost us the game.

I wouldn’t think that Hughes is out of options, but that could’ve been part of the decision process.

i think this was the yankees chance to really get hughes on track by keeping him in the mil and working out various issues. while his velocity was improved his stuff still doesn’t look like it did at the begnning of last year. it also looks like he wasn’t throwing over the top as much as he used to. i don’t get why the yanks felt the need to bring him back after one good mil start – especially when nova is pitching better than him now. seems to me this was a move that could have happened later on when hughes had really worked some stuff out and not just improved his velocity.
coney as usual said it best when he said this was his best start of the season but that wasn’t saying that much.

Speaking of Mitre, is Cashman purposely trying to sabotage the season?

I am also glad that I did not stay up to watch the game.
