I assume that Stroman will have an innings limit on the season. Should the Jays make the playoffs, it would be nice to have him in the rotation. Which is why leaving him in when the Jays are up 8-1 is totally stupid.

 

If the Jays make the playoffs, he wont be on a limit. And an extra 12 pitches is not going to make a difference.

Disagree completely!!!!!!!

 

The reason why most pitchers get hurt is because they are babied all the time. 110-120 pitches occasionally is perfectly fine to me. Just not a regular occurrence.

 

He was also not showing any signs of being tired. 112 is fine IMO

I'd have no problem if the arm was mature and he had thrown 100 pitches in several games, but it hasn't happened. He also threw 90+ pitches in less than 4IP in his previous start. Anyway, agree to disagree!

add the fact that he had a short outing last game.

I could see them shutting him down early like Washington did with Strasburg. His short stature makes him susceptible to arm injury.

Man this f***ing ad for Gordon Ramsey's show is retarded. 30 seconds of some nutcase screaming.

 

I'll be just chilling, feeling really mellow and then this ad always comes on.

Yes, more pitches in a shorter period of time, not good.

What? Short dudes have more compact bodies. He's probably less likely to get injured.

Stroman isn't coming off tommy john surgery and the short stature thing is a myth.

he's not a little kid who just got out of high school. he pitched for Duke and has more innings under his belt than other rookies. I wouldn't want him doing it every start, but one start like this wont hurt him long term.

Yankees are staying at a hotel 20 feet from my building. Going to go chirp them later when they get back.

 

Don't lie. You're going to get Jeter's autograph.

And he was on five days rest!

 

Stroman doesn't have a limit. The Strasburg thing isn't the norm, that's why the Nats got so much heck. If you make the playoffs and have a young pitcher in your rotation, you bite the bullet and keep using him. AA has even said he doesn't have a limit. And being on a pitch count will prevent him from exceeding 175 regular season innings anyway.
