Phil Hughes, sidelined since April 15 because of shoulder inflammation, threw 22 pitches to batters in a side session on Saturday and was encouraged by the way it went.

Jerry "Rello" Recco began with a recap of the Mets' comical loss last night against the Pirates and we heard from an angry Terry Collins, who seems to be at a loss these days as the woes continue both on and off the field. Then he got to A-Rod...
Once Nick Swisher got the signs down, he delivered the big hit that helped the New York Yankees complete a three-game sweep.
When it comes to the Yankees' starting pitching staff, you keep waiting for this big "I told you so" to come from the crowd or the media and it just doesn't materialize.
Consistency and longevity have been hallmarks Derek Jeter's career. As he marches closer to the 3,000th hit mark, Jeter is again reminding his critics just how special of a career he's maintained for 17 seasons.
Alex Rodriguez is the player other major leaguers think is the most overrated? Makes me wonder why we bother asking them anything at all sometimes.

Nick Swisher added his third homer of the season as the Yankees knocked around Seattle starter Jason Vargas and salvaged one game in the first stop of a three-city, nine-game West Coast trip.
Starting with Jeter and Posada, but then expanding the discussion to all established stars, Girardi says they deserve an added degree of communication when lineup shifts are contemplated.``Especially if you have veterans in certain cities, just because it just might be a little bit more of shock for them,'' he said.
"The penalties have to be severe. It just shouldn't happen,'' Girardi said. All four were hauled across the field by police and taken out an outfield gate. Girardi suggested having a cart brought out to quickly remove the offenders and cause less delay.
