Most likely no. The general rule is that a 30 innings increase from their previous career high is normally the cut off when trying to build up arm strength for developing pitchers. He threw 167 last year in AAA so he should be good to go the rest of the way.

He's been controlled by the Reds since he was 17 and signed. The front office hold a lot of credit in this one as they have managed his workload and innings extremely well. Each year they have increased his innings and balls pitched per game doing it the right way. He should be gtg for the rest of the year and should be able to throw around 200 innings this year...
