Dangerous Trades and Tempo
What happens when an injury doesn’t go according to plan—but the outcome might actually be better?
This week on Injury Territory, Will Carroll and Edward Egros break down the biggest MLB injury stories, starting with newly acquired Curtis Mead. Even with a protective padded glove, Mead suffered an injury shortly after the trade. Will explains what happened, why protective equipment isn’t always enough, and what it means for his recovery and his new club.
The Los Angeles Dodgers continue to manage two key health concerns as Shohei Ohtani and Will Smith work through lingering injuries. How do Ohtani’s knee and Smith’s neck affect each other behind the plate and on the mound? Will looks at how their recoveries intersect and what the Dodgers will need from both stars as October approaches.
We also revisit Shea Langeliers after knee surgery that didn’t unfold exactly as expected. Surprisingly, the unexpected turn in the operating room may actually accelerate his return to the field. Will explains the surgical decision, why it changes the rehabilitation process, and what fans should realistically expect from one of baseball’s top catchers.
Meanwhile, Edward Egros dives into one of baseball’s newest debates: are the Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) challenge system and in-game reviews changing the way pitchers attack hitters? Is there evidence that challenge strategy is affecting command, sequencing, or confidence—or is it simply another case of fans seeing patterns where none exist? Edward breaks down the numbers.
