Detroit — If agent Scott Boras had his druthers, teams across baseball would limit the innings of their pitchers, especially the younger ones, to an increase of no more than 60 innings over what they threw in 2020.
That would mean that two of his clients, Tigers rookie Tarik Skubal and top prospect Matt Manning, would be limited to roughly 90 and 60 innings, respectively in 2021. Matthew Boyd, another Boras client, would be limited to 120 innings.
“We have a big issue in our game with pitchers,” Boras said Tuesday night in a Zoom conference with media members in all 30 Major League markets.
