DALLAS (AP) — The championship vision that led Nathan Eovaldi to sign with Texas as a free agent two years ago is the same one that brought him back to the Rangers. A World Series title in his first season was followed by a losing record this year. “I believe in the guys in the group that we have. We were able to do it in ‘23. I don’t feel a lot has changed,” Eovaldi said Friday, a day after finalizing a $75 million, three-year contract . “We had a down year last year, but I've said it before, you learn a lot from losing seasons.” Eovaldi had declined a $20 million player option to become a free agent again and reached an agreement during the winter meetings in Dallas. Texas also acquired slugging corner infielder Jake Burger in a swap with Miami. Burger had fallen asleep before getting a call late Tuesday night that he had been traded to Texas, where his family is planning to move after the October birth of a daughter with Down syndrome. “The other city that is really good other than Nashville in terms of children's hospital and resources for her Downs is in Dallas," Burger said. “Not just from the baseball spectrum, from the life aspect as well ... I feel like it was meant to be, and we couldn’t be more more excited about that.” In the Nashville area, Burger lives close to Rangers manager Bruce Bochy, whom he plans to visit with soon. His former Marlins manager, Skip Schumaker , was hired last month by the Rangers as a senior adviser for baseball operations, and Luis Urueta, Miami’s bench coach the past two seasons, recently joined Bochy’s on-field coaching staff for 2025. Burger and Rangers pitcher Dane Dunning were once roommates in the Chicago White Sox organization. Burger hit .250 with 29 home runs and 76 RBIs in 137 games for the Marlins last season, when he started 59 games at third base and 50 starts at first. He was with the White Sox in Texas when he got traded to Miami on Aug. 1, 2023, and four days later hit his first homer with the Marlins at Globe Life Field. Story continues below video When the Rangers made the title run in 2023, Eovaldi was 5-0 with a 2.95 ERA in six postseason starts. He was the winning pitcher in their World Series-clinching Game 5 at Arizona. He was also part of Boston’s 2018 title. Eovaldi was 12-8 this year with a 3.80 ERA in 29 starts, the last seven scoreless innings in the regular-season finale. He is 24-13 with a 3.72 ERA in 54 starts for Texas the past two seasons. The new deal for the Texas native, who who turns 35 in February, includes a $12 million signing bonus, half payable on Nov. 15, 2026, and the rest on Jan. 15, 2028, and salaries of $18 million next season, $25 million in 2026 and $20 million in 2027. He gets a full no-trade provision. After being welcomed back by Chris Young, the team's president of baseball operations, the pitcher said he never felt like he really left. The Rangers stayed in contact throughout the process after he declined his option Nov. 4. “Kind of listening to the market and everything, I’m extremely happy to be back. I’m glad we were we were able to make it all work out,” Eovaldi said. “We had a lot of teams reach out right away and we were in contact with most them across the league. Ultimately we were able to make it back here.” AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlbOne of the UK’s oldest comic book shops announces closure after ‘epic’ 43 years ahead of huge clearance sale

Mysuru: The Old Mysuru region experienced notable events throughout 2024. The region witnessed several political turmoils, including an FIR being lodged against chief minister Siddaramaiah, the arrest of the son and grandchildren of former PM HD Deve Gowda, BJP expelling one of its senior-most leaders, KS Eshwarappa from the party, and the appointment of CH Vijayashankar as the Meghalaya governor. An era ended with the demise of former CM SM Krishna. The year concluded with the grand success of the 87th Kannada Sahitya Sammelana in Mandya. The biggest political development in the region was Lokayukta cops filing an FIR against CM Siddaramaiah and his wife Parvathi on Sept 27, in connection with the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (Muda) sites scam. Later, both of them appeared before the Lokayukta SP for an inquiry in the city. In the Lok Sabha election 2024, Congress was able to wrest the Hassan constituency, which is considered the home turf of the Gowda family, after a gap of 25 years, while a member of the Mysuru royal family was elected as a Lok Sabha member for the first time after a gap of 25 years. BJP's decision to join hands with JD(S) in the 2024 Lok Sabha election helped both parties to wrest the majority of seats in the Old Mysuru region. Another major political development in the region was BJP's decision to leave the Mandya Lok Sabha constituency to its alliance partner JD(S), instead of retaining incumbent MP Sumalantha, who supported BJP after being elected as an independent candidate in the 2019 general election. After a gap of 18 years, Mandya got representation in the central cabinet with HD Kumaraswamy becoming the cabinet minister for steel and heavy industries. The arrests of former minister and MLA HD Revanna, son of former PM HD Deve Gowda, and his two children, Suraj Revanna (MLC) and Prajwal Revanna (ex-MP), in connection with an alleged sex scandal also made headlines. Revanna and his sons, Prajwal and Suraj, denied the allegations. A mammoth protest against the Deve Gowda family in Hassan, organised by like-minded organisations on May 30, also raised political tensions. End of an era Former CM SM Krishna's death on December 10 marked the end of an era. Krishna, who started his political career as an MLA from Maddur, was considered one of the tallest leaders of the state. Another veteran leader, KH Shrinivas from Shivamogga, passed away on August 30. Yettinahole project The ambitious but controversial Yettinahole drinking water project was inaugurated on Sept 6 at Hassan by CM Siddaramaiah. This project, which aimed at providing drinking water to the drought-hit areas of the southern districts, was criticised as an ecological disaster. No water crisis With southern districts recording heavy rain during the monsoon, there was no Cauvery water crisis this year. The KRS dam continues to remain filled even till the end of December, ensuring that there will not be a drinking water crisis in the summer of 2025. Sahitya Sammelana After a gap of 30 years, Mandya district hosted the 87th Akhila Bharata Kannada Sahitya Sammelana between Dec 20 and 22. Lakhs of people attended this Kannada festival, which attracted Kannada lovers from across the globe. Stay updated with the latest news on Times of India .
