MLB – AP source: Verlander agrees to 2-year contract with Mets A person familiar with the negotiations says Justin Verlander has agreed to an $86.7 million, two-year contract with the New York Mets. The deal reunites the AL Cy Young Award winner with Max Scherzer and gives the Mets a high-profile replacement for Jacob deGrom. The deal includes a vesting third-year option, according to a person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because there was no announcement. Verlander leaves World Series champion Houston to step in for deGrom, who agreed to a $185 million, five-year contract with Texas last week. It also puts Verlander on the same team as Scherzer after they played together with the Tigers from 2010-14. Verlander turns 40 in February. MLB – Judge looms; Verlander, Turner deals heat up winter meetings Justin Verlander is going to the New York Mets. Trea Turner has agreed to a blockbuster deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. Baseball’s first winter meetings since 2019 kicked into high gear when Verlander agreed to an $86.7 million, two-year deal with New York, and Turner joined Philadelphia for a $300 million, 11-year contract. Clayton Kershaw also returned to the Los Angeles Dodgers on a $20 million, one-year deal. The biggest outstanding question at the end of an impactful day at a downtown San Diego hotel centered on the status of MVP Aaron Judge, who remains a free agent after setting the AL home run record and powering the Yankees to a division title. NFL – National Football League – Week 13 Yesterday Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17, New Orleans Saints 16 Buccaneers 17, Saints 16 – Brady throws for 2 late TDs, Buccaneers beat Saints 17-16 Tom Brady threw a pair of touchdown passes in the final three minutes Monday night, helping the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rally from a 13-point deficit to beat the New Orleans Saints 17-16 and tighten their grip on first place in the weak NFC South. The seven-time Super Bowl champion tossed a one-yard TD pass to rookie Cade Otton, finishing a 91-yard drive to pull within 16-10 with exactly three minutes remaining. He got the ball back with 2:29 to go, then won it with a 6-yard throw to another rookie, Rachaad White, with three seconds left. NFL – Packers GM, coach want Rodgers back next season A day after Aaron Rodgers said returning for a 19th season with the Green Bay Packers will require a “mutual desire on both sides”, his general manager agreed with the franchise quarterback. “Surely, yeah,” GM Brian Gutekunst said on Monday, a day after a 28-19 victory at the Chicago Bears moved the Packers to 5-8. Even with 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love waiting in the wings, the Packers want Rodgers back. Coach Matt LaFleur also said on Monday “absolutely” he’d want Rodgers back for 2023.

NFL – National Football League – Week 13 Yesterday Detroit Lions 40, Jacksonville Jaguars 14 Green Bay Packers 28, Chicago Bears 19 Dallas Cowboys 54, Indianapolis Colts 19 Lions 40, Jaguars 14 – Goff’s 340 yards and 2 TDs help Lions rout Jaguars 40-14 Jamaal Williams ran for his 14th touchdown to help the Detroit Lions get off to a strong start and they didn’t slow down in a 40-14 rout of the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The Lions scored on all five of their drives in the first half to take a 17-point lead, and their first three possessions of the second half to pull away. The Jaguars had a scare on the last play of the second quarter when quarterback Trevor Lawrence was sacked and grabbed his left knee, but their defense made his return moot. Packers 28, Bears 19 – Rodgers, Packers rally in 4th quarter to beat Bears 28-19 Aaron Rodgers led three fourth-quarter scoring drives and the Green Bay Packers rallied to beat the Chicago Bears 28-19. Packers receiver Christian Watson ran for a 46-yard touchdown in the closing minutes after Jaire Alexander intercepted Justin Fields. Green Bay trailed 19-10 after three quarters but made enough plays down the stretch to come away with its eighth straight win over the Bears. Rodgers improved to 25-5 against the Bears, including playoffs. Chicago has lost six straight. Fields ran for a 55-yard touchdown in the second quarter and finished with 71 yards on six attempts. He was 20 of 25 passing for 254 yards but threw two interceptions. Cowboys 54, Colts 19 – Cowboys score 33 points in 4th quarter, rout Colts 54-19 Malik Hooker returned a fumble 38 yards for a touchdown against his former team in a 33-point fourth quarter for Dallas, propelling the Cowboys to a 54-19 rout of the Indianapolis Colts. Dallas led 21-19 entering the fourth when Dak Prescott threw the last of his three touchdown passes. Hooker’s scoop-and-score was the first of four fourth-quarter takeaways by Dallas, all of which led to touchdowns. The Cowboys had their highest-scoring quarter since at least 1991. It was just the third time in NFL history a team scored as many as 33 points in the fourth. Matt Ryan threw three interceptions and lost a fumble for the Colts.

Congressman Fred Upton is in his final month in Washington as he prepares to retire at the end of the current term. The St. Joseph Republican tells us he’ll be busy through the end, although his offices are now closed. Reflecting on 36 years in the U.S. House, Upton counts the 2016 21st Century Cures legislation as his top accomplishment. That bill boosted funding for medical research and drug development. “Whether it’s fighting cancer, getting the vaccine approved for COVID, diseases like sickle cell, Alzheimer’s, all of that, coupled with more money for health research so we can find these cures,” Upton said. Locally, Upton says protecting the Great Lakes and completing US-31 are high on his list of accomplishments. He says he’s always followed the example of Ronald Reagan, seeking to govern above all else as he believes that’s what people want. “I look at our district. Most people aren’t registered as Republicans or Democrats, let’s face it. They don’t care if you necessarily have an R or a D next to your name. They just want the job done, and that’s what the next Congress is going to have to do.” Upton says with a divided Congress about to begin, members will have to compromise. He tells us if they don’t work together, nothing will get done. He notes the election this November was the first in decades he got to sit out. “I actually thought about going out on November 8 a couple of weeks ago with a big sign that said, ‘Thank you.'” Until the end of his term, he says he’ll be working on keeping the government functioning, averting a rail strike, and maintaining defense spending. Upton doesn’t know what he’ll do next, but says he’ll remain in St. Joseph. Listen to our full conversation with Congressman Fred Upton below:See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Congressman Bill Huizenga is ready to get to work representing southwest Michigan in Washington once the new term of Congress starts in January. He was just elected to represent the Fourth District, which covers northern Berrien County and points north up to Holland, plus east to Kalamazoo and Battle Creek. Huizenga tells us his old Second District was nearly turned upside down in redistricting, but some things haven’t changed with the new Fourth. “It’s a very diverse, different district on one hand, yet at the same time, there are a lot of similarities,” Huizenga said. “It’s still a manufacturing district. It’s still a district that is very dependent on ag and ag processing, for example. And, as we all know, anyone who lives along the lakeshore, we are an economy that is dependent on the recreational dollar.” Huizenga says he’s familiar with Great Lakes issues as the Republican co-chair of the Great Lakes Task Force. He’s worked on concerns like PFAs and coastal erosion. Another issue he’s worked on is the federal debt. “I’ve helped create a bipartisan group that we informally call the 30 by 30 Group. Originally, it started out as 30 Republicans and 30 Democrats getting together and trying to figure out what we’re going to do and how we’re going to handle this massive, massive debt.” Huizenga comes from a family of business owners, and owns a gravel company himself. He worked in real estate before entering politics and was elected to the Michigan Legislature in 2003 before he was elected to Congress in 2010. Huizenga says he’s been travelling around the new Fourth District, getting acquainted with those he’ll be representing. A new concern for him is the grape industry. He says he’ll be visible and open to any concerns residents have when the new Congress opens January 3.

Christian Wood’s dunk tied the game at 125 with 1:35 left in overtime, but Hayes answered with back-to-back 3-pointers to put the Pistons ahead by six with 41.6 left and seal the win. Bojan Bogdanovic led the Pistons with 30 points while Marvin Bagley III added 19 points and 13 rebounds. Luka Doncic had 35 points and 10 assists for Dallas. Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 26 points.

Devin Singletary had a 1-yard touchdown run to help the Bills win their third straight and take a half-game lead in the division over Miami. Buffalo had been 0-2 against division foes. Allen became the first player in NFL history with three seasons of 25 passing TDs and five rushing scores. New England has lost two straight since posting a season-best, three-game win streak. Sunday Jacksonville Jaguars at Detroit Lions, 1:00 p.m. Rock 107 WIRX 12:00 Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears, 1:00 p.m. Indianapolis Colts at Dallas Cowboys, 8:20 p.m. NFL – Fields takes big step toward return when Bears host Packers Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields appears poised to return against the Green Bay Packers after missing a game because of an injury to his nonthrowing shoulder. Fields took a big step toward playing by practicing Thursday without limitations after missing last week’s loss at the New York Jets. The Bears will try to stop a five-game losing streak and get a rare win over their rivals when they host the Packers on Sunday. Green Bay has won seven in a row against Chicago. Fields separated his left shoulder and suffered some ligament damage in the AC joint when he was tackled on a designed run late in Chicago’s loss at Atlanta two weeks ago. He participated in practice on a limited basis leading up to the game at New York and was limited again on Wednesday. NFL – Lions and Jaguars face off Sunday in possible shootout The Lions and Jaguars are both coming to Ford Field at 4-7. But the teams have good offenses and two shaky defenses and it could make for an entertaining game. The Lions need to get running back D’Andre Swift going while Jacksonville needs Trevor Lawrence to keep rolling against the struggling Detroit secondary. NFL – Police identify suspect in Browns’ playing field vandalism Cleveland police have released the name of the man they believe damaged the field at FirstEnergy Stadium by driving a vehicle on it a few days before the Browns hosted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 21-year-old suspect, Anthony Robert Westley O’Neal, has not been arrested. While no charges have been field, police say O’Neal will be a “direct indictment” to the Cuyahoga County Grand Jury. The natural grass playing surface was torn up by the vehicle, leaving tire marks on half the field that were still visible on Sunday during Cleveland’s 23-17 overtime victory. The team said its stadium maintenance crew addressed superficial damage to the turf.

Christian Wood’s dunk tied the game at 125 with 1:35 left in overtime, but Hayes answered with back-to-back 3-pointers to put the Pistons ahead by six with 41.6 left and seal the win. Bojan Bogdanovic led the Pistons with 30 points while Marvin Bagley III added 19 points and 13 rebounds. Luka Doncic had 35 points and 10 assists for Dallas. Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 26 points.

Devin Singletary had a 1-yard touchdown run to help the Bills win their third straight and take a half-game lead in the division over Miami. Buffalo had been 0-2 against division foes. Allen became the first player in NFL history with three seasons of 25 passing TDs and five rushing scores. New England has lost two straight since posting a season-best, three-game win streak. Sunday Jacksonville Jaguars at Detroit Lions, 1:00 p.m. Rock 107 WIRX 12:00 Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears, 1:00 p.m. Indianapolis Colts at Dallas Cowboys, 8:20 p.m. NFL – Fields takes big step toward return when Bears host Packers Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields appears poised to return against the Green Bay Packers after missing a game because of an injury to his nonthrowing shoulder. Fields took a big step toward playing by practicing Thursday without limitations after missing last week’s loss at the New York Jets. The Bears will try to stop a five-game losing streak and get a rare win over their rivals when they host the Packers on Sunday. Green Bay has won seven in a row against Chicago. Fields separated his left shoulder and suffered some ligament damage in the AC joint when he was tackled on a designed run late in Chicago’s loss at Atlanta two weeks ago. He participated in practice on a limited basis leading up to the game at New York and was limited again on Wednesday. NFL – Lions and Jaguars face off Sunday in possible shootout The Lions and Jaguars are both coming to Ford Field at 4-7. But the teams have good offenses and two shaky defenses and it could make for an entertaining game. The Lions need to get running back D’Andre Swift going while Jacksonville needs Trevor Lawrence to keep rolling against the struggling Detroit secondary. NFL – Police identify suspect in Browns’ playing field vandalism Cleveland police have released the name of the man they believe damaged the field at FirstEnergy Stadium by driving a vehicle on it a few days before the Browns hosted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 21-year-old suspect, Anthony Robert Westley O’Neal, has not been arrested. While no charges have been field, police say O’Neal will be a “direct indictment” to the Cuyahoga County Grand Jury. The natural grass playing surface was torn up by the vehicle, leaving tire marks on half the field that were still visible on Sunday during Cleveland’s 23-17 overtime victory. The team said its stadium maintenance crew addressed superficial damage to the turf.

He went 6-of-7 on 3′s, missing his last one to keep him from tying a school single-game record for most 3-pointers without a miss. Ryan helped the Fighting Irish (6-1) jump out to a 42-24 halftime lead. JJ Starling added 14 points and Dane Goodwin 12 for the Irish, who led 39-16 by the 4:33 mark of the first half and didn’t commit their first turnover until more than 17 minutes into the game.

Congressman Fred Upton is heading into his final month in Washington as he prepares to retire at the end of the current term. The St. Joseph Republican tells us he’ll be busy through the end, although his offices are now closed. Reflecting on 36 years in the U.S. House, Upton counts the 2016 21st Century Cures legislation as his top accomplishment. That bill boosted funding for medical research and drug development. “Whether it’s fighting cancer, getting the vaccine approved for COVID, diseases like sickle cell, Alzheimer’s, all of that, coupled with more money for health research so we can find these cures,” Upton said. Locally, Upton says protecting the Great Lakes and completing US-31 are high on his list of accomplishments. He says he’s always followed the example of Ronald Reagan, seeking to govern above all else as he believes that’s what people want. “I look at our district. Most people aren’t registered as Republicans or Democrats, let’s face it. They don’t care if you necessarily have an R or a D next to your name. They just want the job done, and that’s what the next Congress is going to have to do.” Upton says with a divided Congress about to begin, members will have to compromise. He tells us if they don’t work together, nothing will get done. He notes the election this November was the first in decades he got to sit out. “I actually thought about going out on November 8 a couple of weeks ago with a big sign that said, ‘Thank you.'” Until the end of his term, he says he’ll be working on keeping the government functioning, averting a rail strike, and maintaining defense spending. Upton doesn’t know what he’ll do next, but says he’ll remain in St. Joseph. Listen to our full conversation with Congressman Fred Upton below:See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Congressman Bill Huizenga is ready to get to work representing southwest Michigan in Washington once the new term of Congress starts in January. He was just elected to represent the Fourth District, which covers northern Berrien County and points north up to Holland, plus east to Kalamazoo and Battle Creek. Huizenga tells us his old Second District was nearly turned upside down in redistricting, but some things haven’t changed with the new Fourth. “It’s a very diverse, different district on one hand, yet at the same time, there are a lot of similarities,” Huizenga said. “It’s still a manufacturing district. It’s still a district that is very dependent on ag and ag processing, for example. And, as we all know, anyone who lives along the lakeshore, we are an economy that is dependent on the recreational dollar.” Huizenga says he’s familiar with Great Lakes issues as the Republican co-chair of the Great Lakes Task Force. He’s worked on concerns like PFAs and coastal erosion. Another issue he’s worked on is the federal debt. “I’ve helped create a bipartisan group that we informally call the 30 by 30 Group. Originally, it started out as 30 Republicans and 30 Democrats getting together and trying to figure out what we’re going to do and how we’re going to handle this massive, massive debt.” Huizenga comes from a family of business owners, and owns a gravel company himself. He worked in real estate before entering politics and was elected to the Michigan Legislature in 2003 before he was elected to Congress in 2010. Huizenga says he’s been travelling around the new Fourth District, getting acquainted with those he’ll be representing. A new concern for him is the grape industry. He says he’ll be visible and open to any concerns residents have when the new Congress opens January 3.

Rasmus Sandin also scored and Matt Murray made 38 saves for the Maple Leafs, who have won a season-high four straight and earned a point in nine consecutive games. Moritz Seider had an early goal for Detroit, but the lead didn’t last long. Matthews’ wrist shot beat Ville Husso glove side a few minutes later and Nylander scored on a power play to put the Maple Leafs ahead 2-1 midway through the first period. Marner scored in the opening minute of the second. NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Chicago Bulls 114, Utah Jazz 107 Indiana Pacers 116, Los Angeles Lakers 115 Bulls 114, Jazz 107 – DeRozan scores 26, Bulls hand Jazz fifth straight loss DeMar DeRozan had 26 points and six assists to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 114-107 victory over the Utah Jazz. Zach LaVine added 20 points, six rebounds, and five assists for the Bulls. Nikola Vucevic finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Lauri Markkanen scored 32 points for the Jazz. Kelly Olynyk added 23 points and Collin Sexton chipped in 17. Utah lost its fifth straight. Chicago finished 22 of 25 from the free throw line. Pacers 116, Lakers 115 – Rookie Nembhard hits 3 at buzzer, Pacers stun Lakers 116-115 Rookie Andrew Nembhard hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer, and the Indiana Pacers rallied from a 17-point deficit in the fourth quarter for a stunning 116-115 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Tyrese Haliburton scored 24 points and hit a tying layup with 39 seconds left for the Pacers, who trailed 101-84 early in the fourth. LeBron James hit a one-handed floater with 20.9 seconds left, and Myles Turner missed a 3-point attempt — but Haliburton got the rebound and found Nembhard alone on the perimeter, and the Canadian second-round pick drilled his fourth 3-pointer of the night. Tonight New York Knicks at Detroit Pistons, 7:00 p.m. NFL – National Football League – Week 12 Yesterday Pittsburgh Steelers 24, Indianapolis Colts 17 Steelers 24, Colts 17 – Snell runs for go-ahead TD, Steelers hold off Colts 24-17 Benny Snell Jr.’s 2-yard touchdown run with 9:55 left gave Pittsburgh the lead and the Steelers fended off a last-minute comeback bid to beat the Indianapolis Colts 24-17. Snell had 12 carries for a season-high 62 yards after replacing the injured Najee Harris in the third quarter. Harris was ruled out at halftime with an abdominal injury. Pittsburgh improved to 4-7 and won its eighth straight over Indianapolis, which fell to 4-7-1. Matt Ryan drove the Colts in position for a tying score but Indy stalled in Pittsburgh territory and didn’t call its first timeout until a fourth-down play with 30 seconds left. Ryan threw incomplete and that was it. NFL – Colts, Saturday mismanage clock at end of loss to Steelers The Colts had the ball and drove into Steelers territory late while trailing by seven. But Indianapolis curiously allowed time to continue ticking off the clock, not using its first timeout until it faced a fourth down with 30 seconds left at the Pittsburgh 26-yard line. That play resulted in an incomplete pass and the Steelers held on to win 24-17. Interim coach Jeff Saturday says he didn’t feel as if his team was pressed for time and said they already had called plays they were confident would work. But the ticking clock put extra pressure on Indy and QB Matt Ryan. NCAAMBKB – Men’s College Basketball Tonight Purdue Northwest at Central Michigan, 7:00 p.m. (3) Virginia at Michigan, 9:30 p.m. News/Talk/Sports 94.9 WSJM 9:00 NCAAMBKB – Houston reaches No. 1 in for first time since 1983 Houston is the No. 1 team in the AP men’s college basketball poll. It is the first top ranking for the Cougars since Clyde Drexler and Akeem Olajuwon had Houston there in the final poll of the 1982-83 season. They received 45 of 63 first-place votes from a national media panel. Texas climbed to No. 2 with Virginia, Arizona and Purdue rounding out the top five. North Carolina had been No. 1 but fell all the way to 18 after losing twice last week. NCAAWBKB – South Carolina tops women’s AP Top 25 South Carolina remains the unanimous No. 1 choice in The Associated Press women’s basketball poll. The Gamecocks suffered a scare when reigning Player of the Year Aliyah Boston left Sunday’s game with a foot injury. Stanford, UConn, Ohio State and Indiana round out the top five. No. 9 Virginia Tech is in the top 10 for the first time since 1999. Louisville saw its run of 98 straight weeks in the top 10 end as the Cardinals fell to 18th.
