Yankees Fire Strength Coach

ARLINGTON, Texas – A day after the Yankees’ baffling run of hamstring
injuries claimed another victim in Phil Hughes, the team fired its new
strength coach.

Marty Miller, who was hired last winter to the newly created position of
director of performance enhancement, was let go on Wednesday, according to a
Yankees official who was granted anonymity because the move has not been
announced.

Howard Rubenstein, the spokesman for principal owner George Steinbrenner,
referred questions to General Manager Brian Cashman, who will address the
issue at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington before the Yankees’ game with the
Rangers.

Hughes, 20, was working on a no-hitter when he severely strained his left
hamstring while throwing an 0-2 curveball to the Rangers’ Mark Teixeira with
one out in the seventh inning of a 10-1 victory on Tuesday. Manager Joe Torre
said he expected Hughes to miss four to six weeks.

Other Yankees who have landed on the disabled list with hamstring injuries
this season include outfielder Hideki Matsui and starters Chien-Ming Wang and
Mike Mussina.

Miller, 34, was unpopular with some players, and several opted out of his
program. Miller had not worked in baseball for 10 years before Cashman hired
him last winter. His previous job was director of fitness at the Ballen Isles
Country Club in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.
