Remember the guy who was lights out in the eighth inning during the second half of the season? That was the most dominant looking setup man the Yankees have had since Joba Chamberlain of 2007. But that Phil Hughes has left the Yankees recently, and looks like the next Brian Bruney. Hughes ...
Here’s what to do in the eighth inning
lennysyankees.com 10/27/2009 — I think the most crucial issue generated from Game 6 is Joe Girardi’s lack of trust for Phil Hughes . Mariano Rivera , not Hughes, pitched the eighth inning of Game 6 to secure the pennant. Will it be handled the same in the World Series? That’s a tough call. When to use Hughes in ...
CAN THE YANKS WIN THE WORLD SERIES WITHOUT PHIL HUGHES?
majorleagueblogging.com 10/29/2009 — The answer: Probably not.
Sure, there are certainly other ways the Yanks can win. The Phils could fumble and collapse of their own accord (not likely). The Yankees’ starters could all go 8 innings every start, with Mariano Rivera closing out the 9 th (tough, but can be done). Or the ...
The Phil Hughes Situation
310tojoba.blogspot.com 11/2/2009 — Look, nobody is more upset than me about the fall from grace of Phil Hughes. I've been a huge supporter of the guy since he first burst onto the scene as a big name prospect. He was an integral cog of the bullpen this year and I hope he'll be a big part of the starting rotation for a long, ...
Some Quick Phil Hughes Pitch F/X Analysis
mvn.com 10/29/2009 — Phil Hughes hasn't been his dominant self this postseason; that has been very well documented. So far, his line reads:
4.2 IP, 9 H, 5 ER, 4 BB, 6 K.
That works out to a .557 BABIP, but it's not like he's been giving up weak hit balls. 35 percent of the batted balls against him have been ...
When you assume...
puristbleedspinstripes.com 10/23/2009 — We assumed. We assumed and we started to plan, as though all that was left was tying up some gift ribbons and signing the greeting card. We forgot, in the process, that the Yankees still had to win the game. They had to win the game, in Anaheim, against the best Angels pitcher. Even on paper it ...
Hughes/Rivera Combo Dominant For Yankees
mvn.com 10/14/2009 — For
the past few years, New York Yankees fans furiously debated how the
team should use Joba Chamberlain. The Joba relief camp desired a
dominant eighth-ninth inning combo that would make each game a
seven-inning affair when the Yankees had the lead. Plus, according to
that logic, Chamberlain ...
Hughes Stars As Reliever; Should Be Starter Next Year
dugoutcentral.com 10/17/2009 — For the past few years, New York Yankees fans furiously debated how the team should use Joba Chamberlain. The Joba relief camp desired a dominant eighth-ninth inning combo that would make each game a seven-inning affair when the Yankees had the lead. ...
Where did Phil Hughes’ curveball go?
riveraveblues.com 10/13/2009 — Like most (all?) of you guys, I spent my Sunday evening watching Phil Hughes pitch part of the 8th inning in the Yankees’ series clinching win over the Twins. And also like most of you, I was waiting for Hughes to throw either Denard Span or ...
The Amazing Phil Hughes
itsaboutthemoney.net 9/30/2009 — So we all know that Phil Hughes has been incredible this year. A revelation, even. But did you know that as a reliever, he's been the best pitcher in baseball? OK, so that's ignoring that Hughes has only pitched 49.2 innings from the bullpen this ...

Eiland: Fixing Phil takes only minor adjustment —
NY Post: Sports 10/24/2009
It's hard to understand why Phil Hughes threw Vladimir Guerrero that 1-2 fastball after the Angels slugger had just swung and missed so miserably at the curve. Guerrero still didn't miss as badly as Dave Eiland says everybody is missing the point, ...
Angels plan Yankee upset —
NY Post: Sports 10/24/2009
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Like any other tourists, the Angels will be in the city this weekend to see a show. It's called "Shock the World."
"I promise you, that's the plan," Torii Hunter said yesterday as the Angels spent a few more hours in the Califo...
