Edwin Diaz had a rough spring training outing and Mets fans are totally taking it in stride

Rich SchultzNew year, new Edwin Diaz. Or at least that's what Mets fans hoped. After a disastrous first year in Flushing, when the Mets' $120-million-dollar man blew seven saves, posted a 5.68 ERA, and produced several thousand Tri-State ulcers, the prevailing feeling was that there was no way to go but up. After Diaz's first outing of 2020 spring ball on Wednesday, however, the prognosis suddenly seems much grimmer (and much more Mets).

The good news? He got out of it. The bad news? Just about everything else. Facing a crop of embattled Astros minor leaguers, Diaz required 25 pitches to escape the inning, giving up a pair of runs in the process. Thankfully Mets fans kept everything in perspective and made sure not to overreact to a Grapefruit League start in mid-February . . . lol jk. They promptly freaked the f—k out.

Cover your ears, Orioles fans, this autistic teen can recite the score of every Yankees game since 2014

OK, so before we get to any of the baseball stuff, we want to make sure we aren't trivializing living with autism. It's way, WAY more than the “Rain Man” cliches we see on the internet, even if that's not really what viral stories like this imply. So while it's cool that young Bronx Bomber Will can remember and recite the score of every Yankees game score since 2014, we have to remember and respect that there's some other stuff that might come a lot harder for him. We're all the same page, right? OK good, because we weren't speaking metaphorically when we said Will can recite the score for EVERY Yankees game since 2014. That's a real thing and it's absolutely incredible.

Inverting the NBA’s proud tradition of jumping over fools, Kyle Lowry decides to go under them

There's no more electric moment in basketball than when the defense parts like the Red Sea and suddenly there's nothing standing between your team's trampoline-legged Moses and glory but a seven-foot oak tree rooted to the floor. Time seems to stand still. Everything sounds like it's underwater. Then the unstoppable force meets the immovable object and suddenly the whole world comes exploding back to full speed like two giant hunks of space rock colliding much at the formation of the universe. It is one of the single greatest spectacles in sports—NAY!—on earth. Exhibit A . . .

On Wednesday night, however, Kyle Lowry—Toronto Raptor in arms with one Vince Carter, as seen above—decided to flip the NBA's storied history of going over fools on its head, opting to go under the Milwaukee Bucks' George Hill instead. Take it away, Kyle:

LeBron James drops 40 against Zion Williamson, sparks debate by eating candy on the bench

The highly anticipated first matchup between LeBron James and Zion Williamson turned into the latest reminder that King James is nowhere near ready to pass the torch to the next generation. LeBron put on a show in the Lakers' latest win, scoring a season-high 40 points against the rookie sensation. In fact, you could say his performance was like taking candy from a baby literally.

Before we get to LeBron's sweet ending, here are a couple of tasty highlights. First, he takes the young buck to school for one of his five three-pointers:

By the way, Williamson had 29 points of his own, but we're focusing on THE KING. How about this dunk in transition (and slick between-the-legs pass by Alex Caruso)?
