Needless to say

I'm psyched (do people still use that word?) about Phil Hughes' debut tomorrow night. I won't make a prediction because I don't want to jinx it.

Tonight's game was rained out, which was beneficial on several levels - it gave the pen a much needed day off, it allows Andy Pettitte to start Friday against Boston instead of Jeff Karstens, and it allowed me to drive from the Bronx to Queens at 8 p.m. without much traffic.
