Andy McCullough@McCulloughStar The Royals say Danny Duffy does not have an innings limit this season. This was news to Danny Duffy. http://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article608345.html…


Pretty big news considering most fans recall a 150 limit of sorts. Of course, the GM is now wiggling and flip flopping when convenient, but that is probably a good thing.


Also pertinent to the magical 200 IP limit for Ventura if he somehow reached it.
