I was just wondering if anyone had any information on a good throwing program. I am a middle infielder looking to increase arm strength. Any information would be greatly apreciated, thanks a lot.

Good question Patty C. Someone has to know...anybody?
I'm not familiar with any specific throwing programs for middle-infielders, but long toss several times a week works well for my son, who is a shortstop.
My younger son is a college infielder. His workouts consist of weight-lifting, running sprints, running for endurance, and long toss. With the weight lifting program, it's extremely important to include a lot of flexibility work before and after each session. The weight-lifting/running is done on alternate days. He throws, primarily long toss, about 4-5 days a week.
A lot of college baseball programs post their summer workout program on the internet, and frequently there are different programs for different positions, although it's primarily one for pitchers and one for position players. You may have to google a bit but they're out there.
