Lefty,

They are tools, and as such have the potential help you if used correctly. If used inappropriately they have an even greater potential to do harm to you.

My son uses them from time to time as part of getting loose. He will use it for a few throws, but never throws 100% with them. For him, one of the keys the weighted ball helps him with is to make sure he releases in front and not up top.

I would recommend you talk with your pitching coach about how to utilize them in your throwing program if he believes in using them.

DO NOT just go out and start throwing with them with out a specific plan of how your going to work them into your own regiment.
