Depends on what he is doing on the side.
Some guys in that situation may be given shorter side sessions to keep them stretched.
At this point, 40 pitches shouldn't be a big deal.
Really think he has nice separation on that changeup. It needs a little more fade to become a true swing and miss offering, but that's something you can develop over time.
Hopefully Strahm avoids celebrating his initial success like Finnegan did... And does something other than eat pizza and drink beer in the offseason.
