Phil Hughes has four starts. He’s averaging four innings. David Phelps has eaten more innings this year than Hughes. From now on, I will think of PH as an ineffective long-reliever that they use in the beginning of the games, and see if that makes me feel better about things. Brian Matusz is on the bump for the O’s. Comment away.
