Reply to "Shoulder Injury"

I am not understanding why you would rush into surgery if there was no tear found or even if there was a tear found. Did anyone suggest a second MRI? I would insist on a second MRI and think long and hard before proceeding. It is very hard to detect and multiple opinions are needed or exploratory surgery. Maybe for the remainder of the year, play position player only.

The problem with shoulder surgery, is that it is not always successful, read the articles. Some people think that this surgery will be cureall to the problem. Your son is still very young. If it were mine, I would not rush into anything at this time.
Just my opinion.
