by | Jun 19, 2025 | Blog, Podcast, Videos

In this Episode, Dan chats with Dr. Peter Kriz of Boston Children’s Hospital to discuss the adolescent throwing athlete. In Episode 11, we not only switch gears to discuss our first upper extremity injury topic, but we also switch our typical format and hand off the baton to Dr. Kriz to share his recent presentation. Dr. Kriz does a tremendous job communicating his passion for all things baseball and the health of youth throwing athletes. In his presentation, we delve into injury risk factors, pros and cons of current baseball training and performance trends, current recommendations for youth athletes, actual clinical case studies, injury prevention discussions, and practical advice for the developing thrower. If you deal with youth throwing athletes or have a baseball interest, Dr. Kriz’s presentation is a must-listen!
