Episode Notes
Dr. Neal ElAttrache joins injury expert Will Carroll on Injury Territory to discuss the new “NanoNeedle” procedure that has suddenly become one of the biggest stories in baseball after its use on Tarik Skubal and Blake Snell. What actually makes this procedure different? Why are recoveries potentially moving faster? Are teams beginning to rethink the entire cycle of elbow injuries before reconstruction becomes necessary?
Plus, a fascinating discussion about the evolution of pitching injuries, the pressures of modern velocity, and where baseball medicine could be headed next.
