There is evidence to suggest a player can come back from TJ surgery a better pitcher than he was before. It's not all craftiness, as some pitchers have higher velocity than before. It is thought that this is because once they get used to pitching again, they have a nice fresh ligament to wear down, rather than pitching with the one that had been abused even before it ripped.
