    Last summer, the Athletics made a trade with the Kansas City Royals, sending right-hander Lucas Erceg to the playoff contenders in exchange for righty Mason Barnett, outfielder Jared Dickey, and relief pitcher Will Klein. Klein had made his MLB debut with the Royals before the trade, and was added to the Oakland bullpen not too long after the deal, but he didn't stick around for long. He racked up 1.2 innings of work in three outings, giving up five earned on two hits and four walks.

    To say that the Athletics ended up doing a pretty bad job with the return in the Sean Murphy trade would be an understatement. The Atlanta Braves, thought to be receiving the best player in the deal, did fairly well for themselves, landing Murphy from the A's. But it was the Milwaukee Brewers that snuck their way into the three-team deal that ended up well ahead of both of the other clubs. In the trade, Atlanta received Murphy, and traded away a slew of players to make it happen.

    At least 60 people have been killed in Israeli strikes across Gaza in a 24-hour period, the territory’s civil defence agency has said, as Israel intensifies its military offensive despite aid agencies warning that the Palestinian population is plunging deeper into malnutrition and famine.

1/ With the recent successes of HTS and, before them, the Taliban - both of which swiftly seized control of significant territories while facing criticism from hardline jihadists for allegedly compromising on Islamist principles - are we witnessing the beginning of the decline of
