Piggybacking off the previous Episode in which we talked about the rise of Pitching related Injuries in baseball. Frickin injuries man.. such a passionate topic to discuss for me being someone who has personally dealt with numerous pitching related injuries throughout the course of a little over a decade in professional baseball. This has equipped me to share insights with you in hopes that you’ll be better prepared in your journey in this game to help mitigate the risks of any potential devastating arm injuries. In Episode 6 of Season 9 here on THE Robby Row Show Baseball Podcast we’ll be diving into 4 tiers that I believe are influencing a rise in pitching related injuries over the course of the past decade. If you'd like to watch this episode for no reason but to see that my ipad in the background has clash of clans going you can do so by clicking this link - Watch Episode on YouTube The 4 Tiers we’re going to be discussing are as follows: Velocity - If you have dreams and aspirations of making it to the highest level possible in this game then there’s a dire need to enhance your Velocity. This truth has influenced a drastic change in how athletes in this sport (mainly pitchers) are preparing their bodies to accomplish this goal. This new age “Velocity Development” has taken a toll on how much the body/arm can take before it just breaks down. ‘Do Less’ - We’re not just seeing more injuries at a professional level but also at an alarming rate amongst the youth. It baffles me to hear of 10-12 year olds having to get surgery from a pitching related injury. This IMO can slightly be attributed to a “Do Less” approach in youth throwers. Brake Pedal approach means you restrict the volume of throws in an effort to mitigate the risk of hurting your arm by not throwing a whole lot. But what we forget to mention is the importance of stress adaptation. Even at that age. Design - We’re all pretty familiar with what “Pitch Design” is now that it’s gained a huge popularity within the Baseball performance industry. We can also attribute potential injuries to this dynamic due to a few different factors. Most importantly is how ‘Design’ days are being factored into the individuals work week. Another factor at play is the actual practice of ‘Design Days’ - Meaning I do believe there’s an efficient practice as well as there’s an inefficient practice. How you practice these specific days play a huge role in how your arm is going to respond. Performance - This one can be tricky. There’s a whole conversation to be had pertaining to the way individuals are now perceiving their “development time.” Meaning back in the day it was more about kids just going out and playing games/competing throughout the summer. Whereas now we’re seeing kind of the opposite where kids are not playing games instead electing to spend multiple months ‘training’ - now I don’t want to say this in and of itself is inherently ‘BAD’ but I do believe this can be a factor when looking at the “WHY” these injuries are occurring throughout the sport and at a somewhat alarming rate. If you've dealt with injuries in baseball or have thoughts on how young players can stay safe, I'd love to hear from you. Visit therobbyrowshow.com/ask to share your ideas and join the conversation.
