Infielder Bo Bichette and the New York Mets are in agreement on a three-year, $126 million contract, sources tell ESPN.
After losing the Kyle Tucker sweepstakes, the Mets pivot quickly and get one of the best players left on the market. @WillSammon was first on the deal.

The Los Angeles Dodgers gave Kyle Tucker more money per year than Juan Soto because the team’s ownership group is actually a psyop to demoralize even the most management-hostile baseball fans into supporting a salary cap

Who needs to be “guided” through a molly experience? You’re not seeing the walls breathe, you’re grinding your teeth and having the most important and meaningful conversation of your life, it’s pretty self-explanatory
Crypto lobbyist and former senator Kyrsten Sinema has been sued for having affair with her ex-bodyguard. She also allegedly encouraged him to take the psychedelic drug MDMA on a Senate work trip so she could guide him through it.

There are over 60 miles of pedestrian paths in Central Park but just six where bikes, e-bikes, scooters, pedicabs and horse carriages have to share space: the Central Park Drive, which was the topic of an hours-long discussion at an Upper West Side community board meeting.

Central Park needs protected bike lanes at its perimeter and on its transverses to keep non-recreational users out.

Big deal, Streetsblog has been doing "Molly Fridays with Dave Colon" for years now
New: CBS News seems to be preparing a new segment called "Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil," per sources.
Some staff were only first made aware of it as they encountered CBS testing out set designs of a faux-stocked bar in the newsroom, featuring a large sponsor banner for Jack Daniels.

Continuing to reset the Adams indictment counter even after he's left City Hall is an accomplishment. Like it's the Jets defense going a whole season without recording an interception kind of accomplishment, but it is impressive in that way
NEWS: Former Eric Adams aide and community advocate Tony Herbert has been arrested and charged in an SDNY indictment with taking bribes and kickbacks while working at City Hall, along with several fraud offenses. He’s set to appear in court later today.

A lot of people out there are failing the Dave Colon Test (make a public spectacle of yourself as a reporter but don’t actually be the story)
I cannot emphasize how much “be the news” is the opposite of what I was taught about how to be a good journalist and strikes me as an excellent way to churn out elite solipsism that has nothing to do with the public interest and everything to do with self promotion www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/b...
