Recently my 11 yr old DD starting complaining that something didn't feel quite right when she was pitching. I also noticed a significant decrease in her speed. I took her to the Dr who said her rotator cuff was strained. She will rest for 2+ weeks before starting physical therapy.
After discussing the possible reasons for this injury, both the Dr and pitching coach attributed it to her secondary position (short stop) which requires alot of hard overhand throwing. Her pitching coach suggested moving her to 1st base, right, or left field.
Has anyone else taken into consideration their DD's secondary position?
