Phil Hughes
Really wanted him included in the Granderson trade…
Oh well…
(sorry to bring it up, but seriously, in the end, we practically traded Granderson straight-up for Jackson)

This makes me a sad panda
I really like Phil- he’s a post-hype sleeping giant.

Thunderstorms, eh?
Well, I guess that’s a better excuse than, “Game called because a bird pooped on the lights.”
Especially for a day game.
