Dodgers Doc: No Non-Injury Tommy John Surgery To Improve Performance 道奇队 Doc︰ 没有非损伤汤米约翰手术以提高性能（在线收听）

“There was a recent study that did a survey of parents and coaches asking them what they thought about Tommy John surgery.” 

"有了最近的一项研究做了一个调查的父母和教练询问了他们的想法汤米约翰手术"。

Dr. Stan Conte, vice president of medical services for the LA Dodgers, at the Society for American Baseball Research conference in Phoenix on March 13. 

医生斯坦孔，副主席为洛杉矶道奇队，在美国棒球研究会议在 3 月 13日日凤凰城社会医疗服务。

“And about 38 percent to 42 percent of the coaches and the parents thought it was okau to do a Tommy John surgery on their son that did not have an elbow problem in order to improve performance. This is dangerous stuff.” 

"和约 38%~ 42%的教练和家长以为奥考做他们没有肘问题以提高性能的儿子汤米约翰手术。这是危险的东西。

Dangerous because that velocity does not increase on average after the surgery. The vast majority of pitchers do return to previous performance levels after a long rehab. But about 15 to 25 percent, depending on level of play, do not come back. And the shelf life of the surgery is limited. More major league pitchers are undergoing repeat Tommy John surgeries, with two being announced just this week. 

因为那速度不会在术后平均增加危险。绝大多数的投手后长的康复返回到先前的性能水平。但是，大约 15 到 25%，根据水平的发挥，不回来了。手术的储存寿命是有限的。更多大联盟投手正在重复汤米约翰手术，有两个被宣布就在这个星期。

“The parents come in and say, ‘Listen he’s throwing 78, he’s not going to get a scholarship until he’s throws 83, let’s do the surgery so he can throw 83.’ This sounds ridiculous, but it’s happening on a global scale. It's ridiculous.” 

' 父母走进来说，' 听着他扔出 78，他不会拿到奖学金，直到他是抛出 83，让我们做了手术，所以他可以扔 83.'这听起来很荒谬，但它在全球范围内发生的事情。它是可笑的。
