SAN FRANCISCO — When he was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays last week, Mitch White packed up his things, headed west and tried to manifest destiny. “It couldn’t have worked out better,” the 29-year-old right-hander said Tuesday afternoon from his new locker in the Giants’ clubhouse. Sitting at home in San Diego, White received a call from assistant general manager Jeremy Shelley, who informed him that the Giants had worked out a trade with Toronto. San Francisco sent cash considerations, and the San Jose-born pitcher would get the chance to suit up for the team he grew up rooting fo ..read more

SAN FRANCISCO — When Jorge Soler homered Friday night, it got one monkey off the Giants’ backs. They became the final team in the majors to go yard in their home ballpark. But there was still something Giants officials were eager to cross off the list this home stand. In 10 games at Oracle Park entering Monday, there hadn’t been a reason to showcase the full capabilities of the fancy, schmancy new lighting system installed over the offseason. The LED bulbs and 12 spotlights had sat mostly dormant because there hadn’t been a single save situation for Camilo Doval after dark. So, even holding a ..read more

Sponsored Content Erectile dysfunction is an issue for many men, and biological trace element research shows it impacts your physical and mental health. Weight gain and high blood pressure or cortisol levels can all cause it. However, a follicle-stimulating hormone or testosterone deficiency is easily the most common cause. As a result, men with erectile issues try to promote testosterone production and make testosterone levels rise, with testosterone therapy being one of the most popular options. However, testosterone boosters can often be just as effective as testosterone replacement therapy ..read more

I, a 35-year-old man, have neglected my family and other responsibilities over the last few months to spend time with guys in college. Few things in sports are as interesting or as engrossing to me as the NFL Draft, so night after night (starting well before the Niners’ run to the Super Bowl), I’ve popped on some college football and gone to work, evaluating the class of 2024. Unlike past classes, it’s a great crop that proved well worth the time. Now, I could give you all a list of every prospect, but there are enough of those lists. How about I send you the CliffNotes instead? Here are my fa ..read more

Beth Dooley | (TNS) Star Tribune Tofu is a wonderfully versatile ingredient. It’s great pan-fried, grilled, scrambled and whizzed into spreads and sauces. But I like it best pan roasted until it becomes meltingly golden and crisp. For this, you need a really good tofu, and the fresher the better. Minnesota-made tofu is tastier than the tofu from California. MinnTofu, found in local co-ops, uses non-GMO soybeans grown on a family farm in St. Peter, is processed in Spring Lake Park, and delivered right away. Our local soybeans are lighter in color, have a milder flavor and are plumper than commo ..read more
