As of now, if Rick Porcello stays in the majors and keeps getting the workload he has been lately, he's on pace for 180+ innings as a 21 yr old rookie. Now i know all the old sentiment of when pitchers pitched 20 complete games a year and never had issues, but this is just a different time. Innings and pitch counts are monitored more closely than a guys heart rate or blood tests and may have helped prolong some careers. The point is still, can he hold up and if not, what can the Tigers do?
