(I must preface this by saying I haven't seen the program)

Does anyone KNOW the truth?

Has anyone run a scientific medical test on a large universe of 12 year old pitchers (say several hundred) and divide them on whether or not they use curveballs extensively.
How do those groups turn out at age 18 or beyond?

Or has anyone surveyed kids who have TJ and other problems in HS and college to determine whether they used curves or pitched year-round more often that the average kid when they were in grade/middle school?

Can someone post a link to such studies?
