How many innings did Chandler threw last year? I wouldn’t be surprised if he is close to doubling it.

41.1 combined between FCL and Bradenton. So he's past doubled it. If they shut him down (he's got like 3 starts left), as long as I get to see him next week when I'm down there lol

They will also factor in the innings he pitched in Extended Spring Training last year. He was doing light pitching for two months before anything hit the stats sheet.

Without asking for a research project, does this feel like significantly more innings for more pitchers than typical during the Huntington Era?

100 *feels* big to me.

Well, they had exactly 17 pitchers reach 100 innings in 2017, 2018 and 2019, so I'd say no. Seems like Huntington had a magic number, though I stopped checking after three years. I think 120+ is that magic mark where it starts to feel like a lot of innings for a Pirates pitcher. I think it was a bit tougher to do earlier in his time as the GM because they had that 75-pitch limit for everyone

Geez, would not have guessed. Glad I asked, thanks John!
