Partial Torn Rotator Cuff Surgery and Labral Debridement

I am 18 years old and have just had arthrosopic surgery for a partial torn rotator cuff(50%) and labral debridement. I am on a college baseball scholarship as a pitcher. What are my chances of returning to play at 100% after rehab?

If you go through the rehabilitation process and everything goes well - if you have good scapular function, normal range of motion, and good stability, you should be able to get back to very close to where you were prior to surgery. It is a long process and will likely take at least a year if not longer. It can be done though, with the right people helping and a lot of motivation.
