re: Here’s the deal with LSU Baseball and Injuries

It’s an issue across the board in college and pro baseball. Nobody knows what the underlying cause is. It could be travel ball it could also be that more pitchers are throwing harder than ever before. It could also be that it’s just more in the forefront now. Throwing a baseball is about the most unnatural thing to do to a persons body and it puts a lot of torque on a lot of places that can’t handle it.
In the case for Henry it seems he will be back next week. In that case he is basically just missing a start. That happened over the course of a major league season all the time with pitchers. It’s not very noticeable during a 162 game season but it is during a 30 game sec season. Just like Watson and Reid missing a weekend. In the majors it’s not noticeable for a player to miss three games but it is here.

I'm openminded to this being the 'new normal', but until there are some studies done on the national average to support it, it's hard to just accept.
Assuming that having this many pitchers out is normal on a national level, why are parents even letting their kids pitch at all before puberty?
