SHOW NOTES

Brett Winchester was recommended by Dr. Richard Ulm (#67), to speak about all things throwing. Dr. Winchester is a sports medicine clinician for the St. Louis Cardinals and has a true passion for the health of his pitchers. He has a unique was of keeping them healthy, strong and performing well.

On our initial call about the podcast, he told me about how most pitchers (MLB, college, high school and younger) are taught the wrong pitching mechanics, or what he called “pitching stereotype.” What does that mean? I think about how I loved to see Ken Griffey Jr swing a bat so I attempted to model my at bats around what he did… I mean he was great right?! Brett says that each person has the idea mechanics for them… currently at the younger levels our kids are being taught to pitch in a way that verifies the spikes in UCL injuries. It al starts with when your player separates their hands...
