Prior had his first start of the year today. Pitched one hell of a game. 6IP, 2H, 8K. I was really impressed that Dusty pulled him after throwing 85 pitches, it was the right thing to do. How long will it be though until he starts leaving him out there for 120 pitches again?

I thought the same thing. I seriously thought Dusty would leave him in longer, he was pitching so well. If the Cubs are in the playoff hunt at the end of the year, which they will be, expect him to be out there for 140 pitches every game again. SO bad for a 23 year old coming off an elbow and achilles injury...
