Phil Hughes Fantasy Baseball News, Notes, Rumors and Statistics
The latest Phil Hughes MLB and fantasy baseball news
Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:48:09 -0800 The New York Yankees are unlikely to trade SP Phil Hughes. The team feels he is a 15-game winnier who is coming off a down year. Plus, he is getting into his arbitration-eligible years, and that will make him a little more of a cost to other teams.
Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:17:54 -0800 New York Yankees SP Phil Hughes is in good shape for camp this year. He showed up to camp last year a few pounds overweight. However, the team doesn't feel that's why he had a bad year.
Mon, 16 Jan 2012 13:47:13 -0800 The New York Yankees signed SP Phil Hughes to a one-year, $3.2 million deal Monday, Jan. 16, to avoid arbitration. He can make an extra $225,000 in incentives; $50,000 for 20 starts and $25,000 each for 23, 26, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33 starts. His deal is not guaranteed.
Sat, 10 Dec 2011 20:24:18 -0800 The New York Yankees might keep their rotation unchanged in 2012, despite some thought they will pursue Japanese League P Yu Darvish. SP Phil Hughes might be the key for the rotation, whether or not he bounces back from a disastrous 2011. "How does he bounce back?" Joe Girardi said. "Is he able to be the guy that we had in 2010, and if he is, that's almost like going out and making a move because now you're acquiring a guy, in a sense. We didn't really have the Phil Hughes from 2010 (in) 2011."
Mon, 14 Nov 2011 09:21:57 -0800 New York Yankees SP Phil Hughes is reverting to the same workout routine this offseason that he used before the 2010 season after reporting to spring training this year slightly out of shape. "I think in 2012, you are going to see that again," general manager Brian Cashman said. "He is determined. He is going to Athletes' Performance out there in California, which is something he did two years ago to be in optimal shape."
Tue, 11 Oct 2011 11:49:59 -0700 New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi thinks the team's starting rotation has to be one of their biggest needs this offseason. SP CC Sabathia could opt out of his contract and SPs Freddy Garcia and Bartolo Colon may not be back. If Sabathia does return, Girardi envisions SPs Phil Hughes, Ivan Nova and A.J. Burnett rounding out the rotation. Ps David Phelps, Hector Noesi, Adam Warren and D.J. Mitchell could compete for a spot, and Ps Manny Banuelos and Dellin Betances are expected to contribute at some point.
Fri, 30 Sep 2011 09:15:46 -0700 The New York Yankees have assembled their roster for the Divisional Series against the Detroit Tigers. The team will carry 11 pitchers, with an eight-man bullpen consisting of RPs Mariano Rivera, Rafael Soriano, David Robertson, Boone Logan, Luis Ayala, Cory Wade, A.J. Burnett and Phil Hughes. IFs Eric Chavez and Eduardo Nunez and OFs Andruw Jones and Chris Dickerson made the roster as backups. SP Bartolo Colon, P Hector Noesi, RP Raul Valdes and C Austin Romine did not make the cut.
Sun, 25 Sep 2011 22:59:32 -0700 New York Yankees SP Phil Hughes (back) will work out of the bullpen during the playoffs.
Sun, 25 Sep 2011 10:45:28 -0700 New York Yankees SP Phil Hughes (back) threw 35-40 pitches in a bullpen session Saturday, Sept. 24, and didn't experience any pain. He expects to pitch against the Tampa Bay Rays this week.
Sat, 24 Sep 2011 23:26:42 -0700 New York Yankees SP Phil Hughes (back) might start the postseason in the bullpen for manager Joe Girardi. He hasn't pitched since Sept. 12, as he recovers from back spasms. "I think you have to think about that," Girardi said. "I think that's one of the things you have to think about just because he hasn't thrown in a while and we're not sure how it's going to play out in the next couple of days after throwing this bullpen. Just a lot of decisions to be made by Friday."
