Daniel J. Kaplan, MD, a Sports Orthopedic Surgeon with NYU Langone joins Brandon London for the weekly ‘Injury Report’ segment to discuss Anthony Volpe’s recovery from a partially torn labrum and whether the young Yankees shortstop risked long-term impacts by playing through the injury in 2025.
Jakob Mandlbauer of Austria was hospitalized Saturday but somehow escaped serious injury after the four-man bobsled that he was piloting flipped over on the track, and he was dragged along the track with his head hitting the wall, according to reports from the Winter Olympics .
Mandlbauer was examined on the scene of the horrific crash by medical professionals, transported via stretcher and brought to a Cortina hospital. Austria’s Jakob Mandlbauer is brought off on a stretcher after a crash in the bobsleigh men’s 4-man heat 2 at Cortina Sliding Centre during the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games in Cortina d’Ampezzo on Feb. 21, 2026.The report stated that Mandlbauer is being treated and monitored for “possible cervical issues but at this point it is still unclear what is diagnosis is.” Christoph Iglhauser, the Austrian team press spokesperson, said Mandlbauer avoided a serious injury and was taken to the hospital as a precaution after reporting neck and back pain while being examined.Hall of Famer, Pirates' World Series hero — and legendary Yankees killer —dead at 89. “He’s not so bad. It’s just a check. Everyone else is fine. No injury, only a check. He’ll be fine.” Mandlbauer’s three teammates, whose heads do not peek out of the bobsled like the pilot, walked off the ice under their own power.Jordan Stolz fails to medal in final event in crushing end to 2026 GamesBritish bobsledder Greg Hackett told BBC Sport that his thoughts were with his rivals and reminded casual fans that it is a “dangerous sport.”Jakob Mandlbauer of Austria, Daniel Bertschler of Austria, Sebastian Mitterer of Austria, Daiyehan Nichols-Bardi of Austria crash during Bobsleigh – 4-man Heat 2.“It’s a serious thing,” Hackett said. “We’re here to compete, that’s one thing. But we’re all mates. We all get along internationally, so you never want to see anyone go down. And their Olympic experience ending that way, no one wants to see that either.” Austrian teammate Daniel Bertschler told reporters their team crashed at the turn during training, too. “The entry wasn’t perfect, so there wasn’t much we could do towards the end,” he said. “We were glad that the Austrian Olympic Committee doctor was there immediately and took care of us.”USA hockey star not shying away from teams 'hatred' with Canada ahead of Olympic gold-medal game
