Pitching Matchup

Image
Blue Jays: In his start at Baltimore on Saturday, Towers was laboring toward a quality start before allowing two sixth-inning runs in a 5-2 loss. He gave up five runs -- four earned -- on nine hits and three walks. The right-hander will never beat anyone with power pitches, but his soft-tossing control game will be severely tested by a Yankees lineup without any holes. Towers can only nibble so much, and New York boasts hitters that feast on the fat portion of the plate.

Image
Yankees: Hughes is 2-1 with a 3.94 ERA in three starts for Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre this season, allowing seven earned runs on 11 hits over 16 innings with 17 strikeouts. He was dominant in his last start on April 18, blanking Syracuse on two hits over six innings while striking out 10 to earn the win.

Game 1 got postponed, no scheduled makeup.

Yankees and Jays got at it on Thursday night and Phil Hughes, our top prospect takes the mound against Josh Towers. The Yanks look to take momentum into the weekend's series vs Boston. The rain out may beneficial as it allows our guys to rest their injuries and bruised egos. It also allows our best pitcher, Pettitte, to pitch against Boston this weekend.

Also, I'm not sure if DJ is playing, anyone kno?

GO YANKEES

Phelps has not been trash. He has had some clutch hits, he was catching in a pinch and his defense is much better than advertised. -Jitpal

You know they did this so Pettitte can start against Boston.

So the Pettitte spot gets pushed to friday and Hughes still goes tomorrow or did everything just get pushed back with Hughes against the Red Sox? -Jitpal

Game thread updated for tomorrow night's matchup of Towers @ Hughes.

Hopefully we hold Pettitte for the Boston series. Either way, the rain out is beneficial because we need the rest, and our guys are a little down on themselves i'm sure. Hopefully we regroup and can come out strong.

Also either way, we are guaranteed Pettitte or Hughes to pitch vs Boston this weekend, which is an immediate upgrade over Karstens or Igawa's scheduled start.

Looks like I"m watching the NBA playoffs tonight, later guys!

That is GREAT news. We should take 2 of 3 if Pettitte and Wang bring it.
