This had ZERO to do with analytics.
For pitchers, they're in week 4 of 6 of spring training, for all intents and purposes. He isn't fully built up yet, this is a non issue 3 weeks from now.
He was only at 80 pitches, workload wasn't the issue. The way he was dealing he throws 105 pitches max that game
Worst case scenario physically for sending him out for the 8th is you push his next start back
