I would echo pieces of what the others have stated. Son committed right before junior year of HS. He committed to training in fall and backed the innings way off. Pitched at Jupiter twice and maybe a couple times a month. Summer was facing as much high end competition he could find He went to his college ready to contribute from day 1 and because of that may break the career appearance record as a senior.

Injuries for a pitcher are almost impossible to figure IMO. Son’s teammate who was the 81-82 mph sidearmer lost an entire season in college to TJ.

Your son should know his arm and what he needs. I think adequate rest between outings is most important vs how many times he throws.
