Why? They likely won’t get TJ at that age, just little league shoulder/elbow. They’re not gonna make the league anyway so why not do it and have fun?

They won't get them but it will eventually catch up to them later on.

Hence all the TJS we have seen w/guys still in their lower 20's.

I know we have all been told this our whole lives but there is literally nothing that supports this. It was just societies common consensus never rooted in research and data. Only thing people have found that’s not just neutral or insignificant looking into this is it’s actually possibly detrimental because they don’t build the muscle for when they eventually start throwing violent wipeout sliders

Studies have tried to prove your thinkjng is true A LOT and never had any success or beyond statistical insignificance

no it doesnt bro. you dont know what you are talking about

1) 12 year olds have always thrown curves, sliders etc. been that away since the 80s atleast.

2) you have zero research to back you up, none. research says that the fast ball places the most force on the elbow valgus. sure if we adjust for velo the slider puts on more but even then....very very slight.
