Parents of young ball players, please read this and understand how taxing throwing a baseball is on the body. Keep them healthy so they can enjoy playing the game with their friends and make memories.
"It used to be that we didn’t see these UCL injuries until they got into high-level professional baseball.
But now, the majority of the injuries are either freshmen in college or some young kid even in the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th grade in high school.
So, these young kids are now maturing their bodies so quickly, their ligament is developmental, and it’s not strong enough to keep up with their bodies.
So, they’re tearing it in the high-velocity throwers at a young age.
These kids are not just throwing year-round, they’re competing year-round, and they don’t have any time for recovery.
And that’s really the big problem.
The ones that throw beyond 80 to 85 miles per hour, are going beyond the development properties of their normal ligament, and they’re getting hurt.
You can usually go back and see a minor injury when they were a young kid throwing youth baseball that was not recognized, and yet it set them up for a major injury down the road.
If we could keep these kids clean through high school, then we’re gonna see a lot less number of them getting hurt as they become mature college players and professional players.
If pitching coaches know more than the doctors who study this, then God bless them.
That’s why you’ve got a tenfold increase in injuries to the throwing arm and elbow in the last 15-20 years.
Tenfold now, that’s not some little minor increase.
If I was biased, I would be telling you, ‘Let them throw year-round,’ and that would get me more people to operate on.
But that’s just not how handle something when you’re trying to take care of people.
You’re trying to keep them off of the operating table and on the playing field.”
