If you're a power pitcher, there are 2 types of pitchers. Those who have had Tommy John Surgery and Those Who Will Have TJS.

DC famously benched Strasburg in 2012 (he wasn't one of their top 3 starters at that point in performance) because of innings.
He still broke down again and again.
The human body can't throw like this forever. If you're lucky, you last like Nolan Ryan or Verlander, but each needed TJS in the end.
