Adding Louie Varland to bullpen a timing issue for Twins
Published Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:26:04 GMT
Twins fans who watched the bullpen give up 10 earned runs over 7⅔ innings in a pair of losses in Milwaukee on Tuesday and Wednesday can be forgiven if they were wondering when their team might start bolstering its bullpen with an arm or two from Class AAA St. Paul.Specifically, if they wondered when Louie Varland, a hard-throwing right-hander from Maplewood who is 5-1 with a 2.88 earned-run average in his past 10 starts for the Saints, will return to the staff.“It’s a good question,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said after Wednesday’s 8-7 extra-inning loss to the Brewers. “There is not one answer to that question.”It’s been generally assumed Varland, 25, will return to the active roster toward the end of the regular season, and with a surfeit of starters — Joe Ryan (groin) is expected to return Saturday and join a six-man rotation with Sonny Gray, Pablo Lopez, Kenta Maeda, Bailey Over and Dallas Keuchel — a bullpen role seems mostly likely.But the Twins started Thursday night’s seri...Rams coach Sean McVay looks forward to stealing stuff from Sean Payton this season

For Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay, Sean Payton’s return to the sidelines after a one-year hiatus means he can steal some of his ideas.After the Broncos’ joint practice with the Rams on Thursday, McVay spoke of his utmost respect for Denver’s first-year coach. At the same time, McVay admitted that he plans to study Payton’s offensive concepts for his benefit. “I’m not proud to admit that we’ll do that from everybody,” he said.Payton is regarded as one of the most brilliant offensive minds in the league, so McVay’s comments shouldn’t come as a surprise. McVay, who is entering his sixth season in Los Angeles, has admired Payton’s consistency while learning to adapt and evolve.“My respect (for) him and some of these (coaches) is how hard it is to recreate yourself, but still have an identity (of) how you want to operate and adjust to your team,” McVay said. “I think that’s always been a staple of Sean.”McVay was “super impressed” with the Broncos during the two-day...O.C. mass shooting gunman traveled from Ohio, targeted estranged wife, sheriff says

A retired Ventura police sergeant traveled from Ohio and targeted his estranged wife during a mass shooting at a popular Orange County bar that left three people dead, Sheriff Don Barnes detailed Thursday. According to witnesses, John Snowling walked directly up to his wife inside Cook's Corner, and without saying a word, shot and injured her and her female companion. He continued "randomly" shooting others both inside and outside the bar before being fatally shot while exchanging gunfire with seven deputies, Barnes said. Two men and a woman died at the scene. Only one of the victims, John Lahey, 67, has been identified. Snowling, who had worked with the Ventura Police Department for 28 years before retiring in 2014, was armed with three handguns and a shotgun, Barnes said. Authorities believed he had traveled to Southern California from Ohio before learning that his wife was at Cook's Corner. Witnesses described a chaotic and bloody scene as gunfire erupted both inside and outside ...Woman fired after racist rant at California McDonald's

Published Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:26:04 GMT
When most people hear “estate planning”, they immediately think of wills and last testaments, directives that guide loved ones through the emotional process of settling affairs after a loved one passes away. However, estate planning is a broad and intricate field, stretching well beyond the preparation of these documents. At the heart of this practice is a pivotal but often overlooked figure: the estate planning attorney. Their role is expansive, meticulous, and profoundly consequential, especially when safeguarding retirement accounts and assets.Consider this: As you plan your golden years, you’re likely accumulating various savings accounts—IRAs, 401(k)s, pensions, and more. Yet, for all the focus on growing these funds, far less attention is often paid to the complex tax implications of these accounts upon withdrawal or when they are passed on to the next generation. This is where the estate planning attorney steps in, serving as an adept guide through the complicated...AeroFlexx is Flexing its Muscle as the Premier Liquid Packaging Solution for Brands, Consumers, and the Planet
