I'm worried Bradish is going to be hurt throwing fatigued.

There's not a while lot of evidence that most starters can't go at least 105 pitches before becoming an injury risk.  Maybe you handicap it because Bradish is coming off PRP on his elbow but you usually are pulling starters early because hitters are better at hitting against pitchers the 3rd time thru the lineup. 

 

I think if a pitcher tells you he's tires you listen but if they seem ok it's probably fine.

I was referring to the strain and PRP, yeah.

Awesome outing for Bradish. Have to think it's hard to go beyond 7 when you don't get early contact. I'll take it. 

You mean it's hard to go beyond 7 in the way modern day pitchers are treated.  His pitch count is very reasonable. It wasn't that long ago that starters threw more than 120 pitches before there was any concern.

Is his pitch count reasonable for a guy coming off a UCL strain and PRP shot that made him miss spring training and a month of the season? Would you throw him 20 more pitches in a game that means nothing in May?
