People read what shp said---in fall he pitched in every game he went to---I take that to be every weekend===how much work did he do during the week in preparation---did he do too little or did he do too much.
The young man has asked questions numerous times previous and in my judgment should know how to take care of his arm---I am not, despite your thinking, putting the young man down. I am asking questions.
In my world, which I have come to find to be much different than yours, being blunt, though it may hurt, is the best way to go. Some of you cannot seem to handle that.

Not a naysayer---just asking some tough, rough questions--perhaps others can learn from his mistakes if he made them---you as the dad of a pitcher should know full well that arm injuries just do not happen---there are reasons
Since you brought it up with Dad 04, why don't you tell us the cause of labral tears and SLAP lesions, and then tell all of us how to prevent those.
If you can criticize and question this young high school player and accuse him of doing this to himself, then give him and all of us the answers on the cause and prevention of SLAP lesions, so no one, from high school, to college, to professional makes the mistake again. You will also be helping the medical community because there is much of it they don't know.
Its, Dad04, thanks for your comments and support.
Shp, this injury will impact getting recruited at a DI level.
If you work hard, get good medical attention, and do the rehab with dedication, there is every reason to believe you can play in college.
