Default Chris Carpenter -- St. Louis Cardinals MLB Pitcher

Major League baseball pitchers and overhead atheletes in general seem to be susceptible to TOS. Chris Carpenter was recently diagnosed with TOS and actually had a procedure done in mid-July. I find it shocking that yesterday, he was already back pitching in the major leagues in some rehab assignments.

I'd be very curious a) what his official diagnosis was, b) what procedure was done, and c) Who did it.

All of us struggle here trying to find solutions. I'd gather that Chris Carpenter has access to the best that money could buy. Would love to understand how somebody who puts extreme stress on the thoracic outlet area gets back so quickly...and immediately starts putting stress right back in the same spot.
