The Seattle Mariners plan to limit starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi's innings in his first year in the big leagues in order to acclimate him from the Japanese routine of starting every six to seven days. The M's still want him to make 30-plus starts, but he'll go shorter every five starts or so. It shouldn't negatively affect Kikuchi's fantasy upside in his first season in the States, although the left-hander might be a risky streamer on the days when he's expected to be limited. Kikuchi could be a solid middle-of-the-rotation starter for your fantasy roster in his first season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
