CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Atlanta Braves will pay Nick Swisher $15 million this year while the 35-year-old plays for another team or takes a sabbatical or ventures into broadcasting or pep rallying.

Sherri Geldin was enjoying a relaxing Thanksgiving weekend morning in her Bexley home, reading the Sunday New York Times, when her phone rang. It was the last peaceful moment she’d enjoy for days. On the line was Jack Jackson, her deputy director at the Wexner Center for the Arts. There was an “active shooter” inside the museum. Information was frustratingly scarce. Geldin didn’t know if anyone was hurt, whether her employees were safe, anything—other than someone was wantonly firing a gun insi..>> view originalSecret Service says no guns at RNC in Cleveland despite petition

CLEVELAND, Ohio – On every team there is usually a surprise when it comes to the final 25-man roster that opens the season. The Indians haven't named their 25-man roster yet, but they do have their surprise – Ross Detwiler. The Indians brought five left-handers to camp to compete for a spot in the pen.
