Former three-time World Series Champion pitcher Curt Schilling joined The Doug Gottlieb Show to discuss his new podcast, The Complete Game with Curt Schilling on YouTube. Curt also discusses the issues he sees when it comes to the current state of pitching, from Little League to the Majors.
Doug Gottlieb: "What’s the reality of pitching durability?"
Curt Schilling: “It's broken. Pitching is broken, sport wide, not just at the base at the Major League level, but it's broken all the way down to Little League. There's been a transformation in the last 20 years. The money's gotten insane while pitchers are hurt more often and throwing less than they ever have, and it's a direct result of this massive love of velocity. Bodies are just not built to withstand the rigors of throwing the baseball, which is a very unnatural thing.“
