Phil Hughes - Career on The Balance

Yankees Inbox: Bullpen role not ideal for Phil Hughes? | yankees.com: News: "The good news is that the Yankees don't need him to be a No. 3 starter this year. Right now, he's only being asked to pitch as a No. 5 starter. Hughes does acknowledge that this could be his make-or-break year, telling the New York Daily News in November, "I'm at a point where the patience is running out." He'll be 26 in June, and New York isn't in a position to hand him anything -- not with A.J. Burnett and Freddy Garcia also competing for the fifth-starter's job."
