Heading into last offseason, one of the biggest questions facing the Twins was how they could possibly fill the hole left by Carlos Correa, who was expected to opt out of his three-year contract and sign elsewhere.Correa did opt out of that contract, but a series of twists and turns — and concerns about his right ankle — ended up leading him back to Minnesota, where the Twins were ecstatic to welcome him back.Now, the Twins have no such questions as they look forward to their third season with Correa manning the position.2023 RECAPAfter all the offseason talk about his right ankle, it ended up being his left foot that bothered him throughout the course of the 2023 season. Correa was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in May but played through it, appearing in a team-leading 135 games.Though he was on the field, his production did take a hit. But Correa was always the first one to not blame it on the pain he felt in his heel.

Cohen, whose appearance was delayed from last week by an unspecified health issue, has said it is his first time seeing Trump in five years.“This is not about Donald Trump vs. Michael Cohen or Michael Cohen vs. Donald Trump," Cohen said as he arrived at the courthouse. "This is about accountability, plain and simple.”Trump, heading into court, noted that Cohen served prison time after pleading guilty to tax evasion, lying to Congress and campaign finance violations.“He’s a proven liar," said Trump, who is expected to testify later in the trial.

“Saturday Night Live” was off the air due to the SAG-AFTRA strike in September when Rep. Lauren Boebert was escorted out of the “Beetlejuice” musical in Denver for causing a disturbance. But the show’s writers and comedians couldn’t let the Colorado politician live the incident down before cracking a few jokes.During this weekend’s “SNL” cold open, actor Mikey Day played a defeated Rep. Jim Jordan, soliciting condolences after failing in his bid to be elected House speaker. He receives a call from Rep. Boebert (Chloe Fineman) who suggests he just keep running.“Look Jim, things are going exactly as planned. Just keep running for speaker, and even if you don’t win, great. The government shuts down and we blow this whole thing up,” she says, before being interrupted by a hand that enters the frame and gropes her.“Stop, stop, stop,” Fineman says.“Sorry, are you out somewhere?” Day asks.“Yeah, I gotta go. I’m at the theater seeing ‘Aladdin,’” Fineman replies.Related ArticlesT...Club Q to reopen as “The Q” in new Satellite Hotel location

A Denver police officer bragged to coworkers that he shot a carjacking suspect once in the head to kill him, then at least 16 times more to see his “face fall apart.” They told investigators that he spent months trumpeting his second on-duty killing and saying he was eager for a third.Shane Madrigal resigned in 2022 while under investigation for what his supervisors deemed racist, homophobic and “grossly inappropriate” comments about killing people while he was on duty. Yet he has a clean disciplinary record with the Colorado Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) board, the state agency responsible for training and certifying police. In the eyes of the law, Madrigal — who denied any wrongdoing — remains qualified to keep serving in law enforcement.“We had some terrible police in our community who’ve lost their jobs, but… are still able to find jobs elsewhere,” said Rio Blanco County Sheriff Anthony Mazzola, a member of the POST board. “If we’re going to make law en...Latest news
