Wow. I thought that after Bruney, A-rod, and Posada, you guys would catch a break. Was I wrong? Although, the way he's been pitching so far, this might be a good thing for the team.

Addition by subtraction!

I'm questioning this one. They might just be making up an injury so he can get some time with the pitching coach and work on not sucking.

That being said.....CAN WE CATCH A BREAK?? This is f*cking ridiculous. Why don't we just call up the entire AAA team to play in the majors, cuz that's basically what we're going to end up doing. So f*cking frustrating.

I'll bet it's a made up injury...

If he has been pitching hurt it's a good thing, hopefully now he can rest up and get healthy then start pitching like we know he can.

Wow, the Yankees are getting hit hard with the injuries. Soon they will have more players in the trainers room then the dugout.

You called this yesterday.


Rasner is coming up to make a start. This gives Phil 15 days to work his shit out.

It's only May 1st.

Thank you very much, I'll take credit where credit is due I'm here all week folks. O who the hell am I kidding, I'll be here for quite a while...

[browntown653]

I'm confused, what did you call?


Hughes' injury is worse than originally though...it's a stress fracture in his ninth rib and he'll be out for at least 4 weeks.

<3 life

[NYgiantsfan5689]

WHAT A PUSSY! How can a stress fracture in your ribs cause you to be out until june (new reports say until june AT LEAST)?! so dumb.

[ljshorty89]

Yankees GM Brian Cashman said he doesn't expect to see Phil Hughes back before July after he was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his rib cage.
That sounds right. Hughes will probably go 4-6 weeks without pitching, and it'd be for the best if he spends a full month in the minors before coming off the disabled list. Darrell Rasner will start in his place on Sunday.

Wow, why don't you get a ****ing stress fracture in your ribs before you call our most talented young player a pussy. Didn't realize we had a ****ing medical doctor here.

[NYgiantsfan5689]

All I know is I cleanly broke in half one of the bones to my wrist, and I was wrestling within 2 weeks. And I don't think anyone would argue that using your wrist in wrestling just in general requires more strength and stress than using your ribs while pitching. Unless you know nothing about wrestling...

[browntown653]

Do you know the exact extent of Mr. Philip Hughes' injury? Or do you question the Yankees medical staff?

[NYgiantsfan5689]

I'm questioning Hughes' toughness, yes
