SAN FRANCISCO — Any chance for a MadBum reunion?Designated for assignment Thursday, Bumgarner’s career has cratered since leaving the Giants in free agency following the 2019 season and signing a five-year, $85 million contract.With Arizona picking up the remaining $34 million on that deal, Bumgarner, if he’s waived as expected within seven days, he could come at a bargain price.At the time of his DFA, Bumgarner was 0-3 in four starts with a 10.26 earned run average and his average fastball has dropped to less than 90 miles per hour. His record since joining Arizona is 15-32 with a 5.23 ERA.With the Giants, Bumgarner was 119-92 in addition to being one of the most brilliant postseason performers in baseball history, capped by his performance against the Kansas City Royals in the 2014 World Series.The Giants under director of operations Farhan Zaidi let Bumgarner walk without a serious offer. He’s never played for this coaching staff. Only shortstop Brandon Cr...Larry Elder announces 2024 bid for the White House

By Shaina Shelton | CNNConservative talk radio host Larry Elder announced Thursday that he’s launching a 2024 presidential campaign, joining a growing list of Republicans vying for the GOP nomination.Elder will speak at the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition this weekend. Other 2024 GOP hopefuls are expected to speak as well, including former President Donald Trump, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, who recently launched an exploratory committee.Elder was the top Republican opponent to California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, during the unsuccessful recall effort in 2021, which had emerged due to partisan anger over the governor’s pandemic response. Elder opposed most Covid-19 restrictions, minimum wage, cashless bail and defunding the police.A robust turnout from Democrats in California, who outnumbered Republicans 2-1, allowed Newsom to keep his job. But Elder’s name recognition pushed him to the top of the challenger field in ...Gary Payton II out for Warriors’ crucial Game 3 against Sacramento Kings

SAN FRANCISCO — Gary Payton II will miss the Warriors’ crucial Game 3 of their first round playoff series against the Sacramento Kings with an illness. The illness kept Payton from practice on Wednesday, head coach Steve Kerr said.Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole were listed as questionable in the hours prior to tip off with shoulder soreness and an ankle sprain, respectively. Kerr noted that Poole was playing on a swollen ankle in Game 2, which partly contributed to his four-point performance in 16 minutes.But both were active for a crucial game with the Warriors down two games to none, Kerr said. The Warriors opted for offense by playing a hobbled Poole alongside Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Kevon Looney in the starting lineup to make up for Draymond Green’s absence.Payton’s absence exacerbates an already depleted Warriors team playing without Green due to a one-game suspension.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Families of people killed in the Las Vegas Strip massacre in October 2017 will receive shares of almost all the $1.4 million estate of the man who unleashed the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history and killed himself before police reached him, according to a probate case that ended Thursday in Nevada.In the next several weeks, a total of almost $1.3 million will be distributed to the families of 61 victims of the shooting, said Alice Denton, the Las Vegas attorney who handled the case with her partner, Jarien Cho, at no cost to the estate of the gunman, Stephen Paddock.“We have done what we set out to do,” Denton said of the more than five-year process to appraise, sell and distribute proceeds from Paddock’s assets, including two homes and an investment property in Nevada, a vehicle and 49 guns.“We worked to ensure that the victims’ families received the most that they could,” Denton told The Associated Press. “The guns were destroyed, and the ...Md. couple recounts reimbursement struggle with Southwest Airlines after December debacle

Back in December, Mark Hessie and his wife Stephanie showed up at BWI Marshall Airport in Maryland ready to board a Southwest Airlines flight to Cancun, Mexico, for a long-anticipated Christmas vacation. That flight would never happen. The Hessies would instead be among the thousands of travelers caught in a wave of cancellations by the airline.“We were stranded there,” Stephanie Hessie said.The couple and their son made alternate plans which involved booking a flight for $3,000 on American Airlines out of Philadelphia.“We had to Uber from BWI to Philadelphia in order to make that flight with no luggage,” she said. “We basically had the clothes on our back to get us to Cancun.”They arrived in Cancun without their luggage but made the most of their trip. In watching news coverage of the situation involving Southwest, they felt some comfort in seeing reports that the airline planned to compensate passengers.“We were relieved to hear that (the)...Mexico finally sells unwanted presidential jet to Tajikistan

MEXICO CITY (AP) — After almost 4 1/2 years of trying, Mexico’s president said Thursday he has finally sold the unwanted presidential jet — to the former Soviet republic of Tajikistan. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said the government of Tajikistan paid the equivalent of about $92 million for the Boeing 787 jet. López Obrador refused to use the jet after taking office on Dec. 1, 2018, saying it was too luxurious. The austerity-loving president usually takes commercial flights. López Obrador had tried to lure corporations and business executives to buy the jet, but found no takers. He even symbolically “raffled off” the plane, which would be expensive to convert back into a normal airliner.The plane was purchased for $200 million and was used by the previous president, Enrique Peña Nieto. It has been difficult to sell because it is configured to carry only 80 people and has a full presidential suite with a private bath. Experts said it would be costly to reconfigure into a ty...Clark-Hossler, O’Hair-Matthews take early lead at Zurich

AVONDALE, La. (AP) — The teams of Wyndham Clark and Beau Hossler, and Sean O’Hair and Brandon Matthews, each shot an 11-under 61 in the better-ball format on Thursday to tie for a one-shot lead through the first round of Zurich Classic.The 40-year-old O’Hair has four PGA Tour wins, the last in 2011. Matthews, 28, has never finished higher than 35th.The highlight of their round — if not the entire day — was Matthews’ eagle on the par-4 12th hole. He launched a 313-yard drive into the fairway, then holed a wedge from 135 yards.“Sean played really a stress-free round of golf himself, and that took a lot of pressure off me,” Matthews said. “I could attack little bit more.”Clark and Hossler combined for 11 birdies — seven by Hossler — at the TPC Louisiana.While the 28-year-old Hossler and 29-year-old Clark do not have a PGA Tour victory between them, both have several top-20 finishes this season.

NEW YORK (AP) — Mets pitcher Maz Scherzer was suspended for 10 games by Major League Baseball on Thursday following his ejection for having a foreign substance on his hand during a game.Scherzer appealed the suspension and $10,000 fine imposed by Michael Hill, MLB’s senior vice president for on-field operations, and can continue to play until the appeal is decided. The appeal, which is usually scheduled to be held within 10 days, would be heard by MLB special assistant John McHale Jr.Scherzer didn’t have much to say before New York’s game against San Francisco on Thursday night, stopping by a group of reporters in the Mets clubhouse and offering a brief statement: “We’re talking to MLB right now.”He became the third pitcher suspended by MLB since the crackdown on sticky substances started in June 2021. Seattle’s Héctor Santiago was penalized that June 28 and Arizona’s Caleb Smith that Aug. 24, also 10-game penalties.All three inspections that led to suspensions involved ...Latest news
