Sasaki fever truly reached the US the following year when he was part of Samurai Japan’s 2023 World Baseball Classic win, alongside Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. It flummoxes batters,” Jason Coskrey, Japanese baseball writer for The Japan Times, told CNN Sport. According to his agent, Joel Wolfe, more than half of MLB teams have scouted Sasaki in the last year. “He was a big mentor to them during the World Baseball Classic. But, as arguably the biggest talent to come out of Japan since Ohtani, you will soon be seeing a lot more of Roki Sasaki.

Why Kyle Tucker trade is so significant for the Cubs
  + stars: | 2024-12-13 | by ( Nbc Chicago | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +4 min
The Chicago Cubs made one of their most significant trades in recent memory, acquiring three-time All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker from the Houston Astros in exchange for a three-player package headlined by third baseman Isaac Paredes. Friday’s trade for Tucker is the first real signal that the Cubs are indeed intending to measurably improve and compete in 2025, though questions about the team’s long-term future and willingness to spend big will only grow louder upon Tucker’s acquisition. Though the Cubs did move to acquire infielder Jeimer Candelario near the 2023 trade deadline, the trade for Tucker came at a higher price for a much more significant return. There’s no debating that Tucker’s acquisition makes the Cubs a markedly better team offensively in 2025, but the long-term picture for the club remains fairly uncertain. The Cubs’ largest free agent contract in franchise history remains the eight-year, $184 million pact Jason Heyward reached with the club nearly nine years ago, just one of five nine-figure deals the Cubs have made in team history.

The former Google exec — whose forthcoming book "Wild Courage" focuses on achieving your goals — has always loved a bit of personality on a resume. 'Don't go over five bullets on any given role'For starters, avoid a very long list of bullets under each job title. "If you have 10 bullets under a role," says Wood, "it tells me that you cannot give an executive summary of what you did. When you're describing your accomplishments, "don't go over five bullets on any given role," she says. If you have a link in every bullet, "it's just hard to read the resume," she says, "and again, shows that you're not discerning."

CNN —An investigation into rape allegations made against France and Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé has been dropped due to insufficient evidence, Swedish prosecutors said Thursday. On Thursday, the Swedish Prosecution Authority released a statement confirming the investigation was now closed, without naming any individuals involved. “During the course of the investigation, there has been a designated person suspected on reasonable grounds of rape and two cases of sexual assault, but my assessment is that the evidence is not sufficient to proceed, and the investigation is therefore closed,” the prosecutors’ statement said. The French superstar has always firmly denied the allegations, calling it “FAKE NEWS” in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, in October. Despite scoring nine league goals this season, he hasn’t produced the performances many expected he would.

CNN —Shohei Ohtani should be ready to hit when the Los Angeles Dodgers open their season in Japan – but is “very unlikely” to be pitching by March. Superstar Ohtani has not pitched since 2023 after undergoing elbow surgery. Most recently, he underwent a procedure to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder on November 5. Despite taking a break from pitching while recovering from elbow surgery, Ohtani helped the Dodgers to the best record in the majors before helping LA to its eighth World Series title with just his batting. As the first designated hitter to win MVP honors, Ohtani posted a .310 batting average, stole 59 bases and led the National League with a franchise-record 54 home runs and 130 RBIs.

The New York Mets and superstar outfielder Juan Soto have agreed on a 15-year, $765 million contract, according to multiple reports Sunday. Cohen had shelled out $130 million for Max Scherzer and $86.7 million for Justin Verlander before he shipped both of the big-name pitchers away in 2023. Soto's arrival should strengthen the Mets' offense or at least lessen the blow of possibly losing first baseman Pete Alonso to free agency. Soto's addition is the Mets' most aggressive move yet to wrest the Big Apple spotlight away from the Yankees. He belted a career-high 41 home runs this season (fourth most) to go along with 109 RBIs (sixth most).

Omnicom and Interpublic Group plan a $13.25 billion merger that would create the world's largest ad-agency company. Industry insiders say the deal reflects an ad sector under threat from Big Tech and AI. Being big matters as the industry wrestles with disruption from the might of Big Tech players and the advent of artificial intelligence. The $13.25 billion all-stock deal would merge Omnicom's creative and media-buying agencies, such as BBDO and Omnicom Media Group, with IPG's McCann Worldgroup and Mediabrands.
