Gotta wonder when I hear people claim these things are more common than years ago. I doubt budding Cy Youngs or even Bob Fellers of yesteryear suffered from "rotator cuff" or "UCL" problems. Heck, all they (or even their doctor) knew was that one day they couldn't throw anymore.

Wasn't much of a problem when most pro pitchers were making $10,000 a year.

There wasn't anyone from HBO to do a story on it back then. And the medical community was more focused on things like TB and later polio.
