Even when he is not pitching, "Mad Max" can look like a caged animal in the dugout.
It’s so early in the season and already the New York Mets are down two starters. Taijuan Walker was placed on the IL with right shoulder bursitis on Tuesday.

A week from Sunday is Super Bowl LVI. A few days after the NFL's biggest game, Major League Baseball pitchers and catchers were scheduled to begin spring training. The first is happening. The second is less than doubtful. Given the temperature of baseball fans these days and the ever dwindling numbers, somebody had better start talking.
