Cain's established himself a little better in the league but I have to take Phil's potential over him.

(I have a ginormous man crush on Hughes at this point so that should be taken into consideration.)

I'm not a big fan of pitchers with massive control problems, regardless of how good their stuff is. I'll go with Hughes, although Cain has a track record and he doesn't.

I have to go with Hughes based on potential

I was talking about Cain's control. He'd be an elite pitcher if he could harness his control. He has better stuff than Hughes.

if hughes develops his change up to be his out pitch, he is going to be a top 5
pitcher IMHO. He seems to be relying too much on his curve and it gets him in trouble sometimes. But if that change comes around, watch out.
