A pitcher has led their league in innings pitched while throwing less than 200 innings three times in modern history. Twice, it was during a strike shortened season. Once, it followed a pandemic shortened season. It was an abnormal thing to happen during a full season of baseball. I might be connecting dots that I can't prove are there, but it's an observation I made because it was unusual.

It's an interesting observation I will grant you.
