Honestly, I've just been kind of waiting for something like this at some point this year. They've just been way too cautious with him for way too long. It seemed obvious he was destined for this.
I don't need a link but anybody can go around spouting names out. I can say I heard the whole team got caught banging hookers in the locker room but that doesn't make it true now does it? That's all I'm saying, maybe it's right who knows but damn seriously? If you have proof then so be it....
I'm hearing just inflammation same as last year. This is after the B'ham trip. I could be wrong but the source I trust 100%.
He was being coddled anyway, so wasn't going to hold up as a Friday starter and McLeod was gonna take it from him anyway. Yes it hurts, but next man up. These guys are pretty resilient so don't throw the season away just yet. Just might not be as special as it could have been if he's done for the season.
Everyone is going to have to get used to more arm injuries in college baseball.
The reason is that Major League Baseball teams have figured out that HS pitchers are overly risky for 1st round picks unless they are transcendent talents,
Thus more & more velocity is going to start getting to college & more & more arm injuries are going to happen. These same arm injuries have always happened, it's just that they happened at the lower levels of the minor leagues because these kids were signing pro contracts.
I'll always say: pitchers should sign & go pro out of high school & hitters should go to college. For most pitchers, the amount they get offered out of HS will be the most they ever see. Simply a risky position

I'm no expert but the biggest problem I see is way to much "travel ball" for pitchers. They pitch all year long now days and it starts way before they are developed in the muscle structure.
This hard for me to understand because I thought his pitching was limited throughout high school.
