BOSTON (AP) – New York Yankees pitcher Chien-Ming Wang is still scheduled to start Tuesday.

But while Wang is scheduled to pitch in Detroit, Phil Hughes is the likely call-up to replace him if Wang does go on the disabled list.

Manager Joe Girardi said Friday that the right-hander might have a foot problem that is affecting his velocity. He was checked out Thursday by a soft-tissue expert, Dr. Mark Lindsay, the same doctor who has seen Alex Rodriguez.

Wang played long toss and jogged in the outfield in Tampa on Friday.

He threw 91 pitches Thursday in extended spring training, where he was sent after going 0-3 with a 34.50 ERA in his first three starts. He missed the final 3 months last season with a foot injury but appeared healthy during spring training and says he feels fine.
