    Recovery time is going to be different from player to player. Randy Johnson seemed to be someone you could let throw 130 pitches each start and not get hurt, but Pedro Martinez didn't seem to have the same recovery abilities. Plus older players, generally 35+, are by nature going to require longer recovery periods.
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    I threw BP to 11-12 year olds last night. I'm pretty much done for a week.

    You're about right.
    I think Frazier's swings look like Yogi talked .
    May the Lord bless
