This is true. Many many many people have micro tears that they are not aware of. But most of those people don't have to throw a baseball repeatedly for a living. Pitching a baseball over head is one of the most traumatic things you can do to your shoulder and elbow. Underhand motion (women's softball) is much much easier. It has to do with how the shoulder functions.
If he and his team suspect this, a check up is in order. The possibilty of a micro tear certainly does effect how I will be capping games he's pitching.
The moral of this post is lincecum should start throwing underhand and he might do better...

He is 142 lbs soaking wet, those guys don't last. It's why guys that are 6'5 230 throwing 95 get drafted first. You cannot teach size. He will need to figure out how to pitch better. 95 mph is over.
