Hamate bone surgeries take over MLB spring training, Yankees rotation

Today, Will Carroll sits down with Dr. Jeffrey Dugas of Andrews Sports Medicine. One of the pioneers of UCL repair and the use of InternalBrace, Dugas tells us the genesis, who the first patient was, and when it's appropriate. We discuss the issues of the youth game, pitch design, and then Dugas explains why he went from the operating room to a distillery - both are award winning! It's a unique conversation you'll only hear on Injury Territory.

In other news, injuries to Juan Soto (calf), Cade Horton (forearm), Trey Yesavage (shoulder), and more are discussed, because injuries never sleep.

Injury Territory: Dr. Jeffrey Dugas

This week on Injury Territory, the tweaks keep on coming - ending seasons for some, changing seasons for other.

Zach Eflin’s elbow situation is the kind that doesn’t resolve quickly and looks to end his season. Chase DeLauter’s foot is back in the conversation, and that’s becoming part of the story rather than an interruption to it. Zach Wheeler’s rehab continues on schedule, but “on schedule” always comes with conditions.

We also look at Cody Ponce’s knee and Carlos Estévez’s ankle—two quieter situations that still matter in context. Put together, it’s a week where the injuries aren’t isolated. They stack, overlap, and start to show patterns.

That’s where this episode lives.

Injury Territory: The Week Everything Tweaked

This week on Injury Territory, a routine play turns into something much more serious as Cody Ponce suffers a knee injury that raises bigger questions about how and when pitchers get hurt. It’s the kind of moment that looks random until you start pulling at the thread.

From there, we zoom out to Toronto, where the Blue Jays are already trying to piece together a pitching plan under less-than-ideal conditions. With injuries mounting and timelines tightening, the challenge isn’t just getting arms back - it’s figuring out how to use them without making things worse. There are ways to bridge that gap, but they require creativity and discipline, two things that get tested early.

We also sit down with Dr. Tyler White to talk about blood flow restriction training, one of the more intriguing tools showing up in recovery and performance. It sounds unconventional, but the science is catching up, and teams are paying attention.

If you’re watching the game through the lens of health, workload, and what actually holds up over a season, this is one you’ll want to stay with.
