I know everyone thinks it’s about service time, but I wonder if it has anything to do with how often he’s expected to pitch and the volume of innings he’s expected throw. To me this could be about conditioning.

It’s probably a mix of a lot of things. They want to make sure he’s comfortable in professional baseball, they want to control his service time, and track how he recovers on a new routine taking the ball every 5th day.

I’d imagine he has a hard innings limit so they’d want to maximize that at the big league level so he probably won’t be down for a terrible long time especially if they get off to a hot start again.
