The Athletic | Brendan Kuty: In his debut story for The Athletic, the 2022 New Jersey Sportswriter of the Year does a deep dive into Michael King’s long road back from injury. The article is behind The Athletic’s paywall, but here is one nugget that raised my eyebrows: “The first moment King felt any sign of trouble in his elbow was 36 days before it finally blew out.”
King knew he was hurt, and pitched for another month. And pitched well. An excellent read, and a promising start for Kuty in his new role.
