Hughes Won't Start Monday

From Chad Jennings:

Phil Hughes has been scratched from Monday’s start after experiencing lower back spasms yesterday. A.J. Burnett will start in his place, and Hughes is expected to start Tuesday or Wednesday.

“It was bad yesterday,” Hughes said. “It’s a lot better today.”

Hughes will continue to get treatment and, according to him, “sit in a hot tub and sweat to death.”
