Ouch...my head hurts. No it's not from drinking, it is from a serious lack of good news (or wins) to report about from the Bronx. Not great considering we head into a weekend series against the red sox, and especially since I stand to lose even more money. So here is the recap from last night, hopefully I'll have better news to report after the weekend:
Last night Yankees pitching prospect Phil Hughes made his major league debut. So how did he do? Hughes went 4 1/3 innings allowed four runs and seven hits. He struck out five and walked one in the Yankees 6-0 loss to the Blue jays. Not terrible (for Hughs) I guess, but certainly not what we had all hoped for. I will say that the guy is only 20, and Torre said that it didn't look like he was out of his league, but also wouldn't commit to announcing another start for right now. Mussina was supposed to make a start tonight in the Minors, but due to weather he is most likely going to throw a simulated game at Yankee Stadium.
Offensively we just couldn't get it done last night, A-Rod appears to be cooling off a bit, and Abreu didn't bring his A game. But to give credit where it is due, most of it had to do with a dominating performance by Burnett.
Lastly, we have yet another injury to report, DEREK JETER is out with a sore hamstring.
Pass me the aspirin please.
