The Book of Joe Podcast begins with hosts Tom Verducci and Joe Maddon talking discipline. Joe comments on Tyler O'Neill being benched by Cardinals manager Oli Marmol for an 'unacceptable' base-running effort and how he's handled similar situations. Tom notes the changing culture in baseball and how managers have changed as well. Teams are stealing bases so far, but Joe has one concern he'll be watching for over the season.  Tom gives the early returns from the mound and a new way to look at a batter being walked.

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