In this episode of Sideline Data, we’ll examine how arm sleeves like the motusTHROW have the potential to shape the future of pitching. To understand the performance and medical benefits of this MLB-approved device we sat down with Dr. Joshua Dines. Dr. Dines is an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in sports medicine and shoulder surgery for the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City. Additionally, Dr. Dines is a team physician with the New York Mets and New York Rangers and is one of 200 active members, worldwide, of the American Shoulder and Elbow Society.
