Look what the Yankees did with Joba and the innings limits and messing around with him because he was a young arm that they wanted to preserve for the long haul. He still blew his elbow out and had to have Tommy John surgery. If you have a team that can win the World Series you do everything in your power to win now. Plus what is this going to do to him if the Nats win the World Series with him sitting on the bench. What kind of issues will now come up in the clubhouse between him and his teammates. The Nats knew before Spring Training what his innings limit would be and they should have planned accordingly like others have said.
