Pitchers can always gain stamina, so I'd just roll w/ it so long as he's pitching well and doesn't have an extensive injury history. I've seen guys w/ 30-35 stamina pitch 110+ innings before, so it's possible.

You could manually go into player strategy and put a limit on his pitch count per game if you want, so long as your manager allows you to set player strategies. With the Cardinals, I highly doubt you can, though, w/ Matheny...
