After a season filled with unconventional circumstances and decisions, 2017 may hold much of the same for Julio Urias. Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman and manager Dave Roberts have confirmed the young left-hander will be on an innings limit.
But what’s uncertain is how the club will go about managing Urias’ workload this season. He’s a candidate to remain in extended Spring Training or begin the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Or Urias may very well pitch his way into the Dodgers’ Opening Day rotation.
