With the All-Star break well in the rearview, some teams are considering putting innings limits on young arms that may have had a lot of wear over minor- and major-league starts — if they haven’t done so already.

The White Sox have an abundance of youth in their rotation, so it’s a particularly relevant concern for them.

A Fangraphs analysis before the break last month indicated Carlos Rodon has the fewest “available” innings remaining among the Sox’s young starters without tiring him out or risking a potential injury.
