In this episode of 'The Book of Joe Podcast', Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci explain why this is the most dangerous time of the year. After seeing the Yankees dealing with elbow issues with Gerrit Cole, Tom thinks we're due for a yearly discussion on pitching health. Teams need to be concerned how much wear is on an arm when they reach the Major Leagues. Joe reveals the pitching regimen he'd like to see followed by young players. We explore why innings pitched are down but injuries are up. Plus, Joe recalls his first car and why it cost only $25.
