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. 

The Book of Joe Podcast is a production of iHeart Radio.
