Volquez update!
He’s going to miss an entire year. Looks like he pitched 196 innings last year after never having pitched even one-fifth that many before. 196 isn’t the outrageous comedy number I was hoping to see, but it’s a huge workload for a 25-year-old arm that’s never thrown more than 34.
Not coincidentally, 2008 was Volquez’ first season with the Reds.
