Riassunto:

In this revolutionary analysis of pitching injuries and how to prevent them, Baseball Prospectus's Will Carroll addresses all aspects of pitcher injuries, workload, mechanics, abuse, and, most important, injury prevention. His book is based on the research of Dr. Tom House, famous pitching coach for Nolan Ryan and others, and Dr. James Andrews, the preeminent orthopedic surgeon in baseball. He also draws on exclusive access to data from proprietary research by the Boston Red Sox, the Oakland A's, the Cleveland Indians, and other major league clubs. Information from doctors, trainers, coaches, pitchers, biomechanical experts, and researchers make this the first complete book on pitcher health-essential reading for pitchers, parents, and baseball fans everywhere.

Since the publication of Saving the Pitcher, Mr. Carroll has published an authoritative work about steriods in baseball, The Juice, published by Ivan R. Dee in 2005. He lives in Indianapolis.
