    Even for a full TJ.....sling typically not needed til after surgery. Arm will likely be soar today but for some pitchers.....they won't know elbow is possibly damaged til you try to throw again in next bullpen session.

    Few baserunners. Few 3 ball counts. Theut was flat out on point dominating a top 10 hitting team.

    DII.....SAU Mulerider. Signed with Wichita State. 1st TJ was a slow recovery plus Covid shut down year. Went JC to get right with new left arm......went from 93-94 pre TJ to 88-89 after.

    My guess.....my son just had his 2nd Tommy John with the Tx Rangers surgeon on Monday. so have a little experience here. Need a couple days rest to let any swelling subside. If any issues (aka pain or discomfort) an MRI will happen soon. From that point it could be minor issue and back to normal or up to a TJ.....won't know anything til then

    58 low stress pitches is no where close to overuse. It's less than any recovering pitcher's bullpen sessions that would have been happening for multiple weeks prior to yesterday.
    He threw 62 pitches. He entered the game with 0 outs, runners on 2nd and 3rd, against the 6 team in the nation, and his team clinging to a 1 run lead. Seems like a reach to characterize that as “low stress.”

    Sore arms are pretty routine. So are cracking elbows and shoulders years after their last pitch.

    My son played summer ball with a guy who had three and a half TJ's. Might be a record

    Those were his only stress pitches of the night.

    He was dynamic.

    .

    He calmly and quickly got 3 outs that inning......only run scored was on a routine fly to left. 3rd out was a wicked 3 pitch K where he pitched backwards (2,2,1). Next 4 innings was a continuation of inning #1. Theut was in full control over his opponent all 5 innings. Even the 1st one.

    His demeanor and effectiveness don’t determine if that was a stress free outing. He pitched with a comfortable lead the rest of the outing, so I could see an argument to be made there. To say the entire outing was stress free is just not based in reality. He was lights out yesterday no doubt. It’s a shame it’s all we’ll see of him this year.

    Go back and watch the pitch before he got hurt. He grimaced and acted funny like something hurt. They should have come out then and pulled him. He waved off the dugout but they should have checked on him and saved him from himself
