Chris Sale's pitching elbow (UCL reconstruction history) & rotational torque on runout transition create an unacceptable risk profile compared to a 75 lb youth's low center of mass.
• Runout Impact: Deceleration torque peaks when cardboard digs into flat grass.
• Momentum: P = m·v. Heavy adults carry 2.4× more kinetic energy into the transition ditch.
