New York Yankees starter James Paxton believes he can fly like the eagle that landed on him. The lefty aspires to throw 200 innings in 2019, a tall order for any starter these days, much less a guy known for injuries.
Paxton told the New York Post’s Joel Sherman about his bold plan:
“My goal is to get to the 200-inning range. I understand the bullpening and leverage, but I wonder if those relievers who are being pushed to constant two- and three-inning stints will run out of gas.
