I don’t recall saying ‘don’t pitch,’ but I 100% believe pitchers should have at least a few months each year when they’re not stepping on a mound. I would hope a youth baseball coach would agree…
Surprisingly not great evidence for stretching. Best interventions seem to be eccentric hamstring strengthening and gradual accumulation of high speed running leading up to season.

was there any investigation into gapping changes over time? or throwing velocity/arm motion vs gapping? curious to know if there’s a way to measure gapping during motion and how that impacts injury as well

Researchers measured gapping in spring training and did not repeat the measurements throughout the season. Would love to see a study reassess gapping more frequently but very difficult logistically.
Currently no way to measure gapping accurately during the throwing motion that I am aware of.
