@Dingerswag1223 posted: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!
I think your time-frame might be off a little if you choose both arms, so I would stick with the LEFT. That is unless you can convince a doctor to do them both at the same time... but then wiping your own a$$ becomes a real issue. Just wanted to point out some really important information before you started down that road....
