Maybe a knuckle curve at 13. Personally I don't think I'd have my own kid throwing a curve at that age.


Please explain how changing grip and keeping arm angle the same or possibly slightly different makes any difference.

Most coaches are teaching kids curve balls with a lot more of a jerky arm motion and a very exaggerated wrist snap.


Not even considering the arm damage, a changeup is the most effective off pitch in baseball. If you have a good changeup by high school, you won't even need to throw many curve balls.
