    New York Yankees pitcher Phil Hughes has a bulging disk in the middle of his back and is likely to be out of action for two weeks, general manager Brian Cashman said Wednesday.

    Hughes suffered the injury reaching for a throw while covering first base during a fielding drill Monday. Cashman said Hughes would be treated with anti-inflammatory medication and would not do anything for another four days or so before beginning some light physical therapy.
