Amazing how injuries seem to take so many pitchers now a day. Seems like more injuries now in less innings pitched then in other eras of baseball
It's a whisper in the wind, but asking kids to specialize in one sport year round is a plague.

Three sport athletes are the best quarterbacks. But powers that be are trying to make it year round.

Female soccer athletes have an increased risk of knee injuries; but soccer is a year round sport.

Baseball has been a year round sport for decades now. I threw my arm out at 15, in 2002. I played spring high school ball, summer legion baseball, and fall ball. It was too much.

Instead of rolling back year round sports, which have become money making machines on the backs of young kids, we ask doctors to improve modern medicine.
