In the old days when they were more irresponsible with pitch counts and pitchers were getting hurt all the time, we wouldn't have to worry about our bullpen and Bradish would have finished off this gem. 

Bradish emptied what was left in the tank to get through the 7th.  Gotta go to the pen.

Ever since people did research on pitcher abuse in the wake of Kerry and Prior's arms falling off, 105-110 has been the limit for most pitchers unless they're trying to finish a no-hitter.  Prior's been out of the league for almost 20 years now.

LOL everyone brings up Prior as the example. Can you explain a hundred years of "pitcher abuse?"  Starters routinely threw over 130 pitches.  Oh wait I forgot, They didn't try as hard back then.

Verlander just spoke about this on the Athletic. He was a 120 P guy when he first came up and the era before him was saying why aren't guys throwing 150 P/G. Times change and usually for good reason.
