HUGHES ----------- DL ELIGIBLE????

[uhkeyruh]

will he get the DL on yahoo


OR


will the yankees send him to minors again and he will get a NA and not the DL

???????????????????????????????????????????

[shmolex]

Why would he be sent to the minors?

He'll be put on the DL

Though it hardly matters for me as I've already got 3 players on the DL and 2 NA.

Since he was in the Majors when he got hurt, he has to be on put on MLB's DL.

When he gets healthier, they might send him to the minors for rehab starts---if and when he comes back up is anybody's guess. In an odd way, the injury might benefit him by saving his arm some IP this year.

Only for the 15 days eh'?
4-6 weeks >>> 15 days

what? huh?

The question in the thread is, might the Yankees send him to the minors today instead of the DL and the answer is, they can't. He has to be put on the Major League DL (for X days), and not on a minor league DL, since he was hurt in the Majors.

For what it's worth, I do agree with you that "4-6 weeks >>> 15 days" but no clue what the hell you are talking about.

[Papelbon Fire]

so far, he is not eligible for the DL in yahoo leagues. So right now he is just a waste of space not worth dropping.

[bcb]

He's on DL now.

May 7 Bryan Hoch, of NewYork.Yankees.MLB.com, reports New York Yankees SP Philip Hughes (hamstring) threw on flat ground Sunday, May 6. The team also learned that Hughes' injury might not be as serious as the MRI taken Saturday, May 5, suggested.

Sounds promising

That's good news for the Yankees. They may end up getting Clemens and Hughes back in the rotation at the same time. Quite a boost.

Maybe s/he thinks the 15 days are the maximum, not the minimum

The Yanks learned that Hughes's hamstring injury wasn't as serious as they first expected. How long does this put him out?
