Walker will not face an innings limit this season, MLB.com reports.
The team will continue to be mindful of the 23-year-old's workload, but after a 2015 season in which he threw 169.2 frames, Walker appears poised to break 200 this year. Predictably, there were growing pains in his first full season as a major league starter, and he needs to correct the home run issues, but the peripherals suggest Walker is in line for better results in 2016.
