Hughes is slated to start and pitch two innings on July 28, while Pavano is tentatively scheduled to toss two frames on July 29, assuming that a batting-practice session goes as expected on Saturday. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that Hughes' fractured rib -- which has kept him on the disabled list since April 30 -- has pushed back his development, though it has not severely impacted his standing in the eyes of clubs that are hoping to make a July acquisition. "It hasn't affected the teams asking for him, I can promise you that," Cashman said. "It seems like every time it's a decent name, the demand is Phil Hughes."

Phil Hughes (ribs) is expected to begin a rehab assignment with the Gulf Coast League Yankees on Monday. Hughes will start and pitch two innings. His fractured rib is just about healed and apparently hasn't kept other teams from inquiring about the 22-year-old righty. "It hasn't affected the teams asking for him, I can promise you that," GM Brian Cashman said. "It seems like every time it's a decent name, the demand is Phil Hughes. That's despite everything that's going on. I know one thing -- the evaluations outside the organization seem to be the same as it was before the stress fracture."Source: Yankees.mlb.com
