...its poor little head...
In any event, I think the key point you make is noting that Pedro Martinez and others like him who are MAX EFFORT pitchers at all times...(thus the high Ks) are more injury prone and less able to go deep into games consistently. You harped on Bedard early...but I missed it. I think going for the K all the time might temporarily boost Felix' ERA+ but cost him longevity. I'd rather have this version...the version that runs 2.40 ERAs and can throw 250+ innings.
