Boy do I wish I could change this old screen name… either way, I was hoping to get various opinions on this question. I’m a rising junior in college with 3 years of eligibility left. I didn’t play my sophomore year—I transferred out of the school I played at my freshman year due to an unrelated medical problem. I’m feeling good about that issue these days and ready to be back, except for the fact that I hurt my (right) UCL my senior year of HS/freshman year of college. I’m ambidextrous—I partially tore my left UCL at 13 years old. I pitched exclusively right-handed from then on, all throughout HS. I understand I’m a mess. To make a comeback at playing baseball, which I believe is totally possible with my current state of health, is my best chance of playing college and beyond to undergo surgery on both (forget the price and safety at this point) or just stick with one? To be clear, I’m fully confident I could get to a high level with both as long as it’s physically possible. I was 88-91 T92 in HS from the right and even with the partially torn left UCL, 80-83 T85, although at that point I was throwing with tons of pain and always had to shut down. Thanks for reading and opinions are much appreciated!
