Son had brace with Ahmad last April. He has been pitching but his Velo is way down from prior to tear. 2 others on the team had the same surgery. Looks like a third might be headed that way too. The first ones velo never came back and he is out. Not sure what I think about all of this other than hopeful that my kid will at least be able to play golf in the future with his friends lol.

Sorry your son's velo hasn't come back. Are all the players you mention going to the same doc, PT, and getting their RTT from the same people? Hard to tell what's going on with so many variables.

My son (who I originally started this thread about) is doing well, Velo back to where it was. It has taken him longer to return than what was originally told. But I think that may be the case with just the internal brace.
