Twins takeaways: Splitting in the rain, progress for Correa, Buxton and Wallner and streak MVPs
MINNEAPOLIS — After three cold, dreary and rain-soaked days at Target Field, the Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Guardians managed to complete 15 innings Wednesday to salvage two games from a scheduled three-game series between American League Central rivals.Monday’s series opener was suspended after three innings with the Twins leading 2-1, and rain washed away any chance of playing Tuesday, so action resumed Wednesday afternoon with starter Joe Ryan on the mound in what was technically the first relief appearance of his career.AdvertisementRyan held the Guardians to one run over his first five innings, but couldn’t finish the game with a 5-2 lead, giving up a double and a walk to begin the ninth inning. Jhoan Duran came in for the final three outs, but instead left with the game tied 5-5 following two hits and a wild pitch.Kody Clemens, perhaps […]
Garrett Wilson, after frustrating season, says he hopes he’s ‘a Jet for life’
<!--> Garrett Wilson has put up the type of receiving numbers few New York Jets players have. And in some cases, he's all alone in the team's record book.At just 24 and entering his fourth NFL season, the star wide receiver is looking for even more — catches, wins and a new contract."You know, I'm hopeful I'm a Jet for life," Wilson said Wednesday after the Jets' first practice of organized team activities open to reporters. "And that we get this thing rolling and that all of our best days are ahead of us."Last month, the Jets exercised the fifth-year contract options for all three of their 2022 first-round draft picks, including Wilson, cornerback Sauce Gardner and edge rusher Jermaine Johnson. Wilson, the 10th overall selection that year — six picks after Gardner — would be due about $16.8 million […]
Brock Purdy contract extension: 49ers QB avoided taking ‘every penny for myself’ in negotiations
Getty Images San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy signed a lucrative contract extension last week to make him the seventh-highest paid signal caller in the league on an annual basis. But while capitalizing on his market value as a proven winner with experience at or near the top of the league in numerous statistical categories was a priority, Purdy also said he did not want to take "every penny for myself" in negotiations. The end result was a five-year, $256 million agreement to stick with the 49ers.Purdy's deal includes $181 million in total guaranteed money with $165 million of that coming in the first three years. He secured $100 million fully guaranteed at signing."We want to make sure that we're working together with our organization and setting up everybody for success," Purdy said at his Wednesday media availability. "It's not […]
