My son is a high school junior RHP. Throws 84-85 but with freakish level control Last year he averaged 2 strikeouts an inning pitched over 40 something innings He only had 9 walks. (He goes to a small single A public school so not the highest level of competition) He has some juco interest.
Last week he had some drop in velo and control also with some bicep tenderness. MRI showed partial UCL tear. His options are rest and therapy and see if it heals . The orthopedist was optimistic that it would or go ahead and have the repair.
We’re going next week for an additional opinion. Those of you that have been in similar situations or have expertise in the matter I would appreciate any thoughts
