Mariano Rivera among All-Star Game memories Twins players won't forget

Brandon Kintzler’s life might not change much this week in Miami. But his obituary will.

Like an Academy Award winner http://www.officialredsprostore.com/devin-mesoraco-jersey-c-1_15.html or a gold-record recording artist, Kintzler will have a new label affixed to his career Tuesday, and it will follow him until that day, hopefully far in the future, that his obit is published: All-Star.

Jadeveon Clowney poses big problem for offenses

Jadeveon Clowney will be all over the field in 2017.

It sounds like the Houston http://www.newjersey1861.com/michael-strahan-jersey-c-1_51.html Texans have big plans for outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney this coming season. But he still has to establish himself as one of the premier defenders in the NFL.

Defensive stars like Von Miller, J.J. Watt, Cameron Wake and many others are already established…

Pirates notebook: Andrew McCutchen to keep CF job; Starling Marte says he made 'a mistake'

Andrew McCutchen will remain the everyday center fielder even after Starling Marte rejoins the Pirates on July 18 after serving http://www.rd-corp.com/joe-girardi-jersey-c-1_36.html his suspension.

Manager Clint Hurdle revealed the decision Sunday, a day after he told McCutchen about it during a closed-door meeting.

On April 18, Marte was suspended 80 games by MLB for using steroids. On Sunday, he began a 15-day…

NFL INSIDE DEFENSE RANKINGS

The Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers and Oakland Raiders will be among the popular preseason Super Bowl picks this http://www.newjersey1861.com/landon-collins-jersey-c-1_3.html summer. There is good reason for that -- they all have excellent offenses led by superior play by their quarterbacks. But they could also struggle considerably when it comes to defending the middle of the field, at least compared to some of…

Remembering Jim Rizzuto: A West Hawaii Today institution

As a former sports editor summed it up to me simply: people like us will come and go at this paper. But Jim Rizzuto is an institution.

Through the prime and then http://www.texansprosale.com/lamar-miller-jersey-c-1_39.html tumultuous times of print media, which West Hawaii Today saw multiple owners, publishers, editors and writers, Rizzuto — the man who knew about every tight fishing line and catch in Kona — was…

Best Red Sox moments in All-Star Game history

The Red Sox own their http://www.newjersey1861.com/marshall-newhouse-jersey-c-1_25.html share of All-Star Game moments and, with the 88th Midsummer Classic upon us, there could be some more tonight in Miami (8 p.m., Fox). Chris Sale is the starting pitcher for the American League, Mookie Betts is starting in center field, and there's a good chance Craig Kimbrel could be called on for a save. All three Red Sox…

Fay: Reds have plenty of factors in play as trade deadline looms at the end of July

CINCINNATI -- As the trade deadline approaches on July 31, the Reds obviously are in the seller category.

When you’re in that http://www.officialpiratessale.com/gregory-polanco-jersey-c-1_9.html place, the rumor mill churns with scenarios of every contending team picking out whatever assets you have.

Zack Cozart, Scott Feldman and Drew Storen are obvious trade candidates. But the report Thursday the…

DOC: No other All-Star like Chris Sabo

Baseball’s last original played in the All Star Game 29 years ago at Riverfront Stadium. It was a different time for Chris Sabo, but http://www.arimtex.com/aroldis-chapman-jersey-c-1_13.html only chronologically. Sabo is who he was, and always will be. He exists in perpetual memory, driving a dirty brown Ford Escort straight over entitlement, stomping the sucker flat.

He occurs to me now, two days before the game…

Paul Zeise: Gregory Polanco isn't living up to his hype

Pirates general manager Neal Huntington received praise in April 2016 when Gregory Polanco agreed to what appeared to be http://www.officialredssale.com/chris-sabo-jersey-c-1_27.html a team-friendly five-year contract extension. The deal placed Polanco under control until 2023, and his salary wouldn’t be more than $11 million until the two club-option years.

Huntington may ultimately be rewarded for that deal,…

Houston Texans: 2017-2018 is the year of J.J Watt and Jadeveon Clowney

The Houston Texans were http://www.rd-corp.com/paul-oneill-jersey-c-1_33.html without their franchise player for the majority of last year. J.J. Watt played in only three games before being shut down for the remainder of the 2016-2017 season, having to undergo back surgery for the second time within a three month span. All reports are that Watt is back and healthy for the 2017-2018 year.

And if that’s the case, the…

That time Tom Brady borrowed Ken Griffey Jr.'s jersey from his locker

If you know anything about http://www.firestormkennel.com/cj-fiedorowicz-jersey-c-1_36.html Tom Brady's life story, you probably know that before he was an all-time great, and before he was a Michigan man, he was a two-sport prospect as a high school athlete. Brady wasn't just a quarterback. He was also the catcher for his high school baseball team. He was even good enough to get drafted by the Montreal Expos in…

Shane Vereen's return comes with added leadership role

The Giants’ most versatile http://www.officialpiratessale.com/barry-bonds-jersey-c-1_3.html running back is now their most experienced.

Vereen, 28, takes over the room as the elder statesman, embarking on his seventh NFL season and third with Big Blue. However, the Giants missed that versatility and experience last season after Vereen twice tore his triceps, first in Week 3 vs. Washington and again in Week…

Positional Rankings Series: The Patriots’ 2017 opponents — Linebackers

1. Carolina Panthers

The title of “best linebacker tandem in the NFL” has belonged to Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis for the better part of http://www.texansprosale.com/sio-moore-jersey-c-1_18.html the last four seasons, perhaps only challenged by Seattle’s Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright. But the gap between Carolina and the second highest ranked team on this list isn’t as large as it is because of Kuechly and Davis…

Yankees' Aroldis Chapman: Blows second save in tough spot

Chapman was charged with http://www.officialredssale.com/mat-latos-jersey-c-1_24.html his second blown save of the season during Saturday's loss to Houston. He didn't allow an earned run, though.

The lefty entered in the bottom of the eighth with runners on first and third and allowed a two-run double. Houston stopper Ken Giles closed out the Yankees in the top of the ninth inning, and the game was in the books.…
