Joe Nathan : How often pitchers continue to throw with UCLs torn, and how many of them maintain the level of productivity?
Very rarely. Search by Jim Andrews showed that the percentage of success in rehabilitation was much less than expected. MLB level, I can only find two of the successful cases, although I’m sure that there’s more on the level of minor league.

Nathan resting his elbow for the next two weeks. Could “rest of the world” does not help much at this stage?
Probably not, but the delay does not have two weeks if it helps to reach an understanding with them. We all want a miracle after the bad news, so this is an opportunity for a miracle.
Let’s say the rest of reality does not help Nathan and feels he can go without surgery. Could this pain just go away, or he will have to pitch through it?
Tear will heal – this is not a rupture, a complete tear. This confusion in terminology. Any rupture of the ligament is sprained. Kamel said the tear is a severe sprain. Follow all that?Nathan has a “significant” tear, which has a medical meaning – it’s visible on the photography – and not break. It will heal some, but enough to hold up under the load of asphalt?
Focus only on what is a good atmosphere, are there any benefits to the absence of surgery?
It would be to go through surgery, but then again, maybe he did not happen on the pitch again. Once again, I was hoping for a miracle.
