Twins’ Jose Miranda near-ready to show full benefits of offseason work FORT MYERS, Fla. — Jose Miranda spent his offseason slimming down and getting himself into better playing shape. But the Twins haven’t yet gotten a chance to see all of the benefits of Miranda’s physical conditioning.The third baseman has yet to play a game in the field, dealing with a sore right shoulder that has relegated him to a designated hitter role only and prevented him from competing in the World Baseball Classic for Puerto Rico.That’s soon to change.Miranda is supposed to play in the field for the first time in the coming days, Baldelli said — it may be a major league game, may be a minor league game — perhaps as soon as Tuesday after the Twins’ off day. That’ll be at first base before the Twins move him back to third base — a much bigger test for his shoulder.Miranda said his shoulder got progressively worse earlier this spring, prompting him to finally tell the training staff, at which point he was shut down from throwing. Now, as the Twins have built him back up w...

Russia's Hidden Threats

Published Wed, 27 Nov 2024 15:31:24 GMT

Russia's Hidden Threats During these last days of March, the Kremlin has intensified support for its pro-Russian elements in many European cities. Through these actions, under the guise of rallies and protests, Russia is infiltrating militants and extremists into the European space, trying to undermine and destabilise the situation.The almost simultaneous appearance of supporters of Putin's policy on the streets of European cities is as surprising as the number of these supporters. Apparently, this is the number the Kremlin is able to pay for in the context of a full-scale war with Ukraine and under pressure from sanctions.The organised pro-Russian rallies in Spain, the Czech Republic, Moldova, and manifestations of support for Moscow's policy in Switzerland and Poland, according to Putin, should show that Russia has its supporters in many European cities. But, this synchronised manifestation of pro-Russian protests only confirms the Kremlin's long-standing strategy of illegally funding radi...
