Clubhouse

Organizers of a nonprofit clubhouse in Roseville for children to escape the stress of bullying vow to rebuild after vandals wrecked the place this week. Owner and founder Rob Durham, who opened Juggernauts Kids Foundation this past February, found the interior of the clubhouse badly damaged Wednesday evening. He paid for the approximate $80,000 initial renovation and contents of the building on his own. “Our foundation building was vandalized ruining everything that had been put in place to benefit kids of the community,” Ashley Thibeault, Rob’s wife, said in a statement. Thibeault said the foundation offers mentors, counselors, computer access for school work and fun activities “to give kids an outlet to just be a kid.” According to police, the vandals somehow gained access to the building on Utica Road, just south of 13 Mile Road, They defaced the interior by spray painting graffiti on the wall, shattering TV screens and computer screens, destroyed a toilet, and stole some gaming consoles.

Nobody could have expected this team to fight to stay out of last place in the American League East for much of the season. But that is where we are right now. • The Yankees hold a 59-55 record, 11.5 games behind the Baltimore Orioles, who lead the division. Making up that much ground with two months in the regular season will be tough. MLB columnist Bob Klapisch does not believe the Bronx Bombers will turn it around. "You walk into the clubhouse and you don't get the sense that winning or losing on a day to day basis makes a real impact on these players" said Bob Klapisch. Klapisch believes the New York Yankees clubhouse is going through the motions. There is no sense of urgency when the team loses;  » Read More

The former Chicago relief pitcher was not a fan of how first-year manager Pedro Grifol ran things. Grifol is known as a players-first manager, but the lack of authority in the White Sox clubhouse led to what Middleton describes as all-out chaos.“We came in with no rules,” Middleton said, per ESPN. “I don’t know how you police the culture if there are no rules or guidelines to follow because everyone is doing their own thing. Like, how do you say anything about it because there are no rules?  » Read More

© Sergio Estrada | 2023 Jul 31 OAKLAND, Calif. — Casey Schmitt’s first taste of the big leagues was an uninterrupted, three-month stretch of relatively consistent playing time. His introductory stint ended Saturday night in Oakland, when he packed his bags in the Coliseum visitor’s clubhouse and got optioned to Triple-A Sacramento. Schmitt, 24, hit .205 with a .258 on-base percentage in 68 games with the Giants. He cracked two homers and drove in 25 runs while bouncing around three infield positions. He experienced ups and downs, often learning the hard way how to cope with failure at the big-league level. The Giants optioned him to Sacramento and recalled newly acquired utility player Mark Mathias because they think the latter can provide more competitive at-bats at the moment and think Schmitt can better develop with more regular playing time with the River Cats. “I believe that his player development is really important,” Giants manager Gabe Kapler said Sunday. “And you can see how (Brandon Crawford) is taking control of his at-bats right now.  » Read More
