Have your son take a look at the MLBs pitch smart webpage. Third point down discusses shutdown.

http://m.mlb.com/pitchsmart/risk-factors

BTW, my sons program, works with a major MLB trainer. His primary job is working for an MLB team. He volunteers his time to work with our program. He works very closely with one of last years extremely hot pitchers. He is the one who has setup our off season program and has mandated the shutdown period and ramp up periods. He has based what we are doing off what the MLB guys do. I guess what Im getting at is, let your son know that shutdown is important and that every major MLB pitcher shuts down for 60 to 90 days every year. That does not mean they are not working out, just that they are not throwing.
