Quincy,
as the pitchers get older they can adapt to change a lot faster, without "messing them up" for very long at all. Part of this is simply because they are older, more experienced, and more in tune with their bodies, and part of it is because at this point they are used to having 5 different coaches telling them 5 different things.
I understand where you're coming from and I would agree if the pitcher were 12 years old. If they're in high school, they should be ok. My own kid changed her "windup" a few days before HS tryouts (she now does it hillhouse style) and she managed to do it without missing a beat. It took about 30 minutes of pitching for her body to adjust.
