CSP Elite Baseball Development Podcast – Pinch Hit Friday 77: Can Movement Screens Predict Injuries?

About the Author: Eric Cressey

This week’s Pinch Hit Friday is now available. In this episode, I review some recent research on the utility of the Functional Movement Screen in predicting upper extremity injuries in baseball players. More importantly, I speak broadly to the goal of doing assessments, and why what’s predictive in one population might not hold up in a different group of athletes.
