Bulldog,
Your son should take this VERY seriously.I know he may think it is the end of the world to possibly miss next season.But it sounds like 2 or 3 monthes off will not do it.The good news is that rest is the solution,not Tommy John surgery!A good friend & teammate of my sons just found out he will need TJ surgery & miss his Soph. season.He did not heed the warnings his body was telling him.God Bless
