McHugh did not allow a hit over two scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Yankees on Wednesday. He walked one batter and struck out two.
McHugh was deployed as an opener again Wednesday after appearing out of the bullpen in his first four outings this year. He faced the minimum six hitters after he walked Luke Voit in the second but got Aaron Hicks to ground into an inning-ending 3-5-3 double play. The 34-year-old has had a pair of shaky outings but has otherwise been pretty reliable in multi-inning scenarios. His 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP isn't a pretty sight, but McHugh does own a respectable 12:2 K:BB over 9.1 innings.
