He will have made exactly 86 starts in 5 years, when the 2018 season ends.   That is only an average of 17 per season.

Assuming an average starter makes 32 starts per year, he averages missing almost half of each season.

Let that sink in.

Bullpen should be his future.  His body is not made for 180 innings a season.

But his stuff is made for late innings success.

We have no idea if his body is made for pitching 2-3-4 times a week either.

Depends on how many pitches he throws in relief, and the pattern of usage.

Or if his body has the ability to recover.  Not every starter can be a reliever just like every reliever can’t be a starter.
