Abstract
Superior labrum anterior-posterior tears (SLAP) can be a career-altering injury for Major League Baseball (MLB) pitchers. Surgery and postoperative rehabilitation keep pitchers on the injured list (IL) for extended time, which results in a significant cost to a team. To date, no analyses have focused on the financial cost of SLAP repairs in MLB pitchers.
