If you want to get stronger, it probably won't help to lose weight. In addition to lifting, try to eat more protein, and find other ways to strength train. Rock climbing is good, and you can add variety to your lifting with bands medicine balls. Swimming and yoga will tone your muscles and won't cause you to bulk up.

Work your legs and abs hard. Don't concentrate as much on your upper body and arms. Just like in pitching, power for throwing comes from the lower half of the body.
