I'm also a parent of a 2020 pitcher, 3/4 slot, with similar stats.  In my opinion, and it may not be a popular one.  You don't screw with things that hurt, PERIOD.  If they wanted him to get stronger he can do that with specific weight exercises, he doesn't have to screw with his entire mechanics. 

Again, my opinion that may not be popular, High School Coaches are supposed to make SLIGHT tweaks to a kid, not change his entire delivery.  If you don't want his summer to be messed up soon I suggest you become THAT dad and make some noise as to the why.  I personally don't ask my sons coaches to justify anything to me, but if I thought they were hurting him I'd SOOOO be THAT mom.

Congrats CaCo, you have learned that the correct terminology is “arm slot” not “elbow angle.” 😀

Somebody are their grumpy sarcastic Wheaties today.  There is an arm slot, there is an elbow angle, and the two should never meet....
