Hughes should go into the rotation and Joba should go to the pen. I really don't know why they are so dead set on starting Joba. They have a hole in the bridge to Mariano. If Joba's the 8th inning guy, he probably starts the 8th last night. Girardi has no confidence in anyone besides Mariano out there. Put it this way, if they were to lose Mariano for the rest of the year, you would have to be crazy to think that Joba wouldn't be closing games the next day.
As far as the cluchness of ceratin players, I'm done arguing about it now. We will see down the stretch who's worth the dough they get (for the record I think that they are all grossly overpaid, it's a damn game for cryin out loud!). But in my opinion the pitching has been and still is the biggest problem.
