Why are MLB Pitchers Getting Injured so Frequently?
Ninja and Tony sit down with former Oakland A’s pitcher Andrew Carignan to talk about the alarming rise of pitcher injuries and much more on this week’s episode of The Huddle! But up first, the fellas talk about the NCAA Tournament and whether or not we will ever see a sure-fire bet like UConn. And since Andrew is from Connecticut but went to North Carolina, where are his college basketball allegiances? The guys then dig into some Major League Baseball news items and at the forefront is the pitcher injuries we’re seeing. Andrew shares his thoughts on why we now seeing endemic-levels of arm injuries and why they are rising at an alarming rate. Since he played within the Oakland A’s system, we had to ask him about the current state of the A’s and what that three-year window of baseball will look like when they play in Sacramento. We close with a little football and since Andrew is a New England Patriots fan, what better way to talk a little NFL than with some prognostication on whether or not the Pats will hit the OVER or UNDER on their paltry 4.5 win total in 2024.
