There's a lot of news for the first week of the season!  Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci compare the use of 'torpedo' bats in baseball to a golfer trying different clubs.  Joe explains how a batter finds a bat that works for him and how analytics are once again changing the game.  Tom notes the rough start for Rafael Devers while Joe offers up some drastic changes to turn things around.   Atlanta has also struggled out of the gate and the PED news with Jurickson Profar is an early dagger.

Borrowing the podcast title from their forthcoming book, three-time Manager of the Year Joe Maddon and three-time Sportswriter of the Year Tom Verducci provide exclusive insight, commentary and discussion on the MLB postseason, from the stars to the strategy.

As manager of the 2016 Cubs team that broke a 108-year championship drought, Maddon knows what it takes to navigate October pressure. Part Phil Jackson, part Yogi Berra, Maddon brings unique and entertaining takes on not just on dugout strategy but also life lessons and leadership - not to mention classic cars and rock and roll.

A five-time Emmy winner with Fox and MLB Network, Verducci has behind-the-scenes access to the players and managers throughout the postseason.

“The Book of Joe” is your home to learn - and laugh - about the real stories behind how postseason games are won and lost.
