The Yankees have not forgotten about Phil Hughes, who started the season in
the rotation but is now laboring for Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. On
Wednesday in Buffalo, Hughes worked 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs and six
hits, striking out seven with one walk. It followed two dismal starts that
put into question whether Hughes would return in September.
Nardi Contreras, the organization’s pitching coordinator, traveled to
Buffalo for the start. He showed Hughes video of his strong outings in 2007
and worked on mechanical adjustments.
“He threw the ball hard,” Contreras said. “Threw the fastball for strikes
and had a real good curveball. Real good changeup, mixed in a slider. He
attacked the strike zone. They had (Josh) Barfield, Victor Martinez and
(Tony) Graffanino in the lineup. He did well.”
Contreras said Hughes topped out at 94 miles an hour and pitched regularly at
92. He would not say what adjustments he made to Hughes’ delivery, but he
seemed to like the results.
“He did well, and he had some success,” Contreras said. “He’s on his way.
”
Not literally, Contreras meant. That is a call for General Manager Brian
Cashman and Manager Joe Girardi, who will start adding players from the
minors when rosters expand on Monday.
