This Makes Sense
Check out this quote from Nardi Contreras about Chien-Ming Wang:
"Maybe it's the arm strength, not getting enough innings pitched last year. He hadn't pitched in eight months. With arm strength, it'll be easy for him to get the ball down. More arm strength, more velocity. The man didn't pitch for eight months. It takes time to get it back."
Not sure why it took until April to figure that out, but better late than never I guess. The question now is what do they do about it? I would opt to DL Wang, recall Hughes and let Wang work things out in the minors on rehab. The Yankees could also have Wang throw another extended spring game on Tuesday and then make a DL decision. They could use Hughes for the start in Detroit on Tuesday in that scenario as well.
