Back on the Bump: Concordia Lutheran’s Traeger pitches for first time since Tommy John surgery

HOUSTON - Jax Traeger had always planned to pitch again in 2022.

It was his senior year. It would also be the final high school season that he would get to play with battery-mate and younger brother Nolan at Concordia Lutheran.

But in June of 2021, the TCU-signee underwent Tommy John surgery on his right pitching arm, which usually takes about a year to fully recover from.

“I was so relieved to finally be at the end of my rehab and have another chance to pitch with my team,” Jax said. “My doctors, trainers, coaches, and teammates made it possible for me to get back out there safely and I couldn’t be more thankful.”
