Steven Izzo’s life lasted four days. He was 5 pounds when he entered a world that was unsure where to send him. And for years, it’s been something he’s wanted nothing to do with. He was just known as Tom Izzo’s son. Now, those close to Steven, including his parents, were taken aback when learning he’s talking publicly about his adoption, unpacking it for all to see.

Gone are the days when players would show up en masse and spend six weeks trimming their beer bellies and getting reacquainted with their fastball grip or swinging motion. Preparation for modern athletes is ceaseless. The 2022 lockout gave those who believe spring training is too long a refreshed perspective on what might be possible.
