Kazmir unhappy with pitch counts 

Post#1 » by craig01 » Wed Aug 22, 2007 12:51 am

Kazmir has now publicly stated that he wants to pitch deeper in games.

16 of his first 17 starts went over 100 pitches.

Frustration is brewing..........

I have mixed emotions about the subject.......I think you should try and win every game, as opposed to saving his arm for 3 years down the road.

I'm not saying let starters run up counts to 130-140, but yanking a guy on a roll at 91 with this bullpen is just as careless.

I think that's just a loser's mentality.

And who knows if or when his arm blows up.
