Garrett Richards won't have his workload limited by the Los Angeles Angels as the season progresses.

Richards, who has emerged as L.A.'s top pitcher in 2014, is on pace to eclipse 200 innings.

"Not at all," Jerry Dipoto said. "Garrett has thrown from end to end in a season. His innings have not escalated to the point where they're 200-plus, but Garrett throws the ball as easily as anybody you'll ever see. It's not a violent delivery, it's not a violent package. He maintains velocity pretty easily."
