Reply to "he threw how many??"

70 pitches in the third, IMO is way too high.

That means he is going deep into counts, afraid to give up hits because he is a afraid his defense will let him down. High pitch counts may signal he is nibbling away at the batter, not in command of his pitches. You are right, this is not LL anymore and the pitcher needs to learn how to adjust.

Not good for a young pitcher to think that way. The results of too much don't show up until later on, when it really will be important.

Right now it appears that no one is working on the same page as to what is best for the young pitcher.
