I think the bigger issue is how much do you put him in bubble wrap within Baseball

It is very very rare for talented pitchers to not get overused. Most talented pitchers don't take 3 or even better 4 continuous months off from throwing each year. If you (the Dad) are not 6'5" 275 pounds of muscle or extremely intimidating or a member of a biker gang, good luck getting his coaches to keep him on a very conservative pitch count limit and days of rest in between outings limit.
