Artificial Turf Wars Ep. 6: The High Performance Week that Was

Biomechanist Dr. Thomas Karakolis stops by the podcast to discuss the new High Performance Department, as well as the new rule allowing MLB players to use “wearables” and how they can help prevent future injury. Also, Greg and Josh discuss the Franklin Morales signing and break down the first slate of games with a focus on Marcus Stroman and Aaron Sanchez’ dominant starts, Josh Donaldson’s injury, and some odd bullpen usage by John Gibbons. The guys also answer some listener questions, give out a Do-Over to Gibby and hand out the first ATW Cliché of the Week to the phrase “he handles the bat well.”
