Disagree all you want. I won’t be rude or anything but I’ve almost written a book about this subject. The biomechanics of the curveball are almost completely identical to the fastball. My opinion is shared by Dr. James Andrews


I agree. There may be minor effects of throwing curveballs, but for most kids it's sheer volume. Kids 13 or 14 years old should.t be throwing 100 pitches in a game or 2 or 3 days in a row.

Circle change is the best pitch in baseball. Teach them at 9/10 and by the time they're in higschool. They'll have mastered it. It's a huge advantage to batters that don't have a clue how to approach one. Spot up fastball and change of speed is basic pitching. Loser tournament ball coaches just want to see that snap wrist nasty curve punch out on unsuspecting little kids.
