We get it by now.  The once-heralded phenom Phil Hughes is what he is at this point.  Nothing more than a 4 or 5 in a Yankee pitching rotation or 3 or 4 elsewhere (National League probably) who never fully reached his full potential in New York and is more up and down than a Northeast roller coaster during the Summer time.

The Yankees have woes in the pitching rotation and one issue in the bullpen, to say the least.  Ivan Nova is in the minors trying to figure things out.  Joba Chamberlain is a mess and Phil Hughes, it seems, will never figure things out...

The Yankees took game one of a four-game set in Seattle 6-1 behind a six-run third inning that saw back-to-back home runs from Robinson Cano and Mark Teixeira and a solid performance from Phil Hughes, who seems to give up less home runs on the road for some reason.  Hughes is now 4-0 with a 0.82 ERA all-time at Safeco Field.  Let's have a look at the rest of the series.

If there is one thing that New York Yankee fans can count on, it’s that they cannot count on Phil Hughes. In typical Hughes fashion, the inconsistent starter followed up his stellar outing against the Mets with a stinker in the Bronx, as the Yanks fell to the Red Sox 11-1...

Old rivals meet again.  This is really the rivalry though, not that silly Yankees-Mets thing.  Speaking of which, the Yanks come into the series with Boston in the Bronx tumbling down a hill, having lost four straight to the Mets.  Boston, meanwhile, comes off a series split with Phildelphia.  Here is a Boston-New York series preview.

The Subway Series is here again.  This of course is more for the fans and the media, but there are some terrific New York baseball storylines to this one.  First thing is first.  The Yanks come fresh off an impressive series win in Tampa Bay, where they seem to never win games. The Mets continue to be a disaster, losing a series to Atlanta and getting no consistent hitting or depth in the starting

After this season, the Yankees have a decision to make in terms of Phil Hughes, the guy once designated for pinstripe greatness and ace-type status.  Hughes' contract (third year, arbitration eligible, one-year, $7.15 million) is up this year.  Here are the three options for the Yanks as far as Hughes goes after 2013:
