He doesn't believe in pitch counts.
Valentine didn't much buy into the increasingly stern limits on pitchers in
the United States, and his experience in Japan only confirmed to him his
opinion. Valentine said none of his pitchers for the Chiba Lotte Marines
suffered an arm injury during his six years as manager, despite consistently
throwing bullpen sessions in excess of 200 pitches.
"The one thing that doesn't compute is less than better. It doesn't match.
More is better," Valentine said, mentioning that his Red Sox pitchers will
start off spring with a 32-pitch bullpen session.
今年春訓當Bobby V被問到關於投球數的看法時
他的回答是: 他不信這一套
他在羅德的時候 投手牛棚練投投超過200球都沒事
反而像天才小史 球數被控制卻還是要進廠維修
所以結論就是多多益善 (?)
