Clubhouse

(670 The Score) White Sox shortstop Elvis Andrus would like to re-sign with the club for the 2023 season and is willing to shift to second base to help make that happen, he told Inside the Clubhouse on 670 The Score on Saturday morning. Andrus, 34, has only played shortstop in his MLB career. That’s also the position he has filled for the White Sox since he signed with them in August after being released by the Athletics, but Tim Anderson is Chicago’s entrenched shortstop when healthy. With that in mind, Andrus is open to the idea of shifting to second base, which has been a hole for the White Sox in recent years. “It’s big,” Andrus said when asked about his interest level in returning to the White Sox in 2023. “I feel that now being here and kind of tasting a little bit of the vision, the competition, I really get addicted. For sure, I’m going to my free agency for the first time in my career, so I’ve never been through that process.  » Read More

Jonathan Amos BBC Science Correspondent 22 September 2022 image source,NASA/ESA/CSA/STSI Image caption, Images captured by the Webb Space Telescope provide the first clear view of a distant planet in more than 30 years The recently launched James Webb Space Telescope is sending back stunning new images of Neptune. Details of Neptune captured by space telescopes using infrared instruments are the first clear views of the solar system’s most distant planet since Voyager 2 passed by Neptune in 1989. This image details planetary rings made of dust. Researchers are interested in Neptune’s different cloud structures to provide new clues about the composition of Neptune’s atmosphere.

Each step Trey Mancini took to his locker in the Houston Astros’ clubhouse at Camden Yards on Thursday felt familiar but was oh so different.Getting off a plane at BWI Marshall Airport, then heading up Interstate 295 into Baltimore? It was a “drive that I made 1,000 times probably, for a lot of different reasons,” Mancini said hours before he faced his former team for the first time at Camden Yards. He arrived at the Orioles’ home ballpark via the Astros’ team bus, rather than driving himself and parking in the player lot. Inside the tunnel in the stadium’s lower level, he walked farther toward the third base side than he ever had, heading to the visitors’ clubhouse instead of the one he spent parts of five seasons with a designated locker in.“It’s so familiar,” Mancini said, “but you gotta remember that you’re here as a visitor now.”He was welcomed as if it was still home. As Mancini warmed up before the game, the Orioles played a minutelong tribute video on the Camden Yards scoreboard that ended with “Thank you,  » Read More
