Act your age: At this age you are not going to be earning a living playing baseball but you may need that shoulder for your actual line of work and family activities. Overhead pitching wreaks havoc on the shoulder and you should take care of your injury and likely degenerative shoulder rather than risk more significant damage and dysfunction.
