Philip Hughes pitching tonight?
Question:Hughes is pitching tonight for Scranton/WB. Being a Yankee fan I'm wondering if all the hype about him is worth it. He had a poor Spring Training and has struggled in AAA. Is he the Brein Tylor of 2007?

Does Derek Jeter sign autographs through the mail either to his house or with the Yankees?
No sir -- there is definitely merit to the hype. He had a poor spring, but you have to keep in mind he's only 20 years old in AAA. Most 20-year-olds find themselves in A+ or maybe AA ball, but rarely in the high minors and a borderline major league callup. He's got a bit of stuff to work on, but by 2008 they'll likely give him a serious shot in spring training to make the rotation.Who hit kirby puckett in the eye?
Brien Taylor hurt his shoulder in a barroom fight. He never came back from the injury.Phil Hughes is the real deal. This kid can pitch. He has the finesse and nerves of a veteran. He may have had a bad pre-season but watch for him to be called up mid-season. He throws smoke.
He's the real deal,Yanks should throw Pavano out in the streets,And bring up a real man like Hughes!!
