Twins manager Rocco Baldelli talks to one of his players before a game against the Royals in 2025 in Kansas City, Mo. (Reed Hoffmann / AP) At a time when the Mariners are trying to narrow their list of finalists, former Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli has withdrawn his name from consideration for Seattle's managerial opening, an industry source confirmed to The Seattle Times on Sunday night.

Texas early voting rate is slightly behind 2018, when Beto O’Rourke challenged Ted Cruz

by Zach Leggio and Dan Keemahill, The Texas Tribune October 27, 2026 Nearly 4.5 million Texans cast a ballot in the first seven days of early voting — outpacing the turnout rate of the 2022 midterm election but slightly behind 2018, when Democrat Beto O’Rourke fell 2.6 points shy of toppling U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz. From Oct. 19 through Sunday, 23.4% of registered Texas voters had cast a ballot or voted by mail, according to data from the Texas secretary of state. In 2018, the turnout was 24.3% in the first seven days of early voting. Derek Ryan, a Republican consultant and data analyst, expects the pace of early voting to increase this week, leading to a busy day at the polls on Friday, when the early voting period closes.

How will No. 8 BYU solve its tackling woes ahead of Arizona State?

BYU's double-overtime loss at UCF this past weekend will likely always be remembered for its chaotic finish — especially the somewhat-controversial officiating of the final minutes. While Kalani Sitake said it "would have been nice" to have received some immediate clarification regarding Saturday's officiating, he's leaving the drama behind. He knows there are bigger fish to fry for his squad. "I've moved on, it's not really going to do much for me to cry about it," Sitake told reporters Monday in his weekly press briefing. "It was great competition, congratulations to UCF for getting a win. Honestly, my mind has got to be focused on what we can do against ASU, and you guys have brought it up, (we've) got to fix the missed tackles, we've got to fix the missed assignments.
