“Obviously, Alex wants to play, that’s good for him, good for baseball,’’ Harvey told the New York Post. “If he is that dedicated and wants to come back, then more power to him for going up to the organization like that, it shows a lot. It will be exciting to see what he can do.” MORE: Alex Rodriguez in photos | A-Rod met with new commish | Public A-Rod apology coming at spring training | Mets plan to be careful with Harvey...

MORE: Mets blew their chance to take back New York from Yankees According to the New York Times, Mets manager Terry Collins held a closed-door team meeting after his pre-game news conference. “There’s things with this job that certainly are internal that the public can’t see and how hard it is,” Collins said, “and this one’s a tough one....

His return to the Mets — with a rehab stop at Triple-A Las Vegas in between — is expected to come during next week’s road trip that begins Monday in San Diego, the New York Post reported. When d’Arnaud is activated, top prospect Kevin Plawecki will likely be sent down to Las Vegas, Newsday reported. “We all know that Travis is on the road back,” manager Terry Collins said, according to the Post....

In 2020 and 2021, double-header games were shortened to just seven innings. In those two years and again in 2022, extra innings have started with a magic runner on second base. The goal of both rules has been to reduce the number of innings played in certain circumstances, in an effort to avoid injuries that might happen in long games/days of baseball.

The Mets secured a 3-2 walk-off win in their home opener Thursday, but, in typical Mets fashion, it came with two dashes of drama and a part of controversy. With the bases loaded, one out and a tie game with Michael Conforto up in the bottom of the ninth, the Mets outfielder seemingly leaned into a pitch in the strike zone, which would have been good for Strike 3 and out No....

Earlier in the week, Fox Sports reported there were about eight teams showing interest in Tebow. The Braves were the most vocal, with their general manager saying, “There’s no risk” in signing the former Heisman-winning quarterback. Tebow will head back (kind of) to the Big Apple, where he played as a member of the Jets. Although it’s unlikely we’ll see Tebow in a Mets uniform any time soon, as Schefter says the former QB will play in the Instructional League or Arizona Fall League as a first step....

Though Mexican cartels have used explosives, drones and homemade armored cars in the past, the Associated Press reported that this is the first time they have used IEDs, or homemade explosives. According to a report by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, IEDs can take many forms, from a 1-pound explosive stuffed into an envelope to “a sophisticated device capable of causing massive damage and loss of life.” Mexican television station Milenio described the IEDs the cartels have used as pipe bombs with a cone-shaped cap that directs the explosion....

For years, Mexico had been considered the top team in the region, and El Tri likely retain that status in the eyes of most pundits on the back of their 2015 Gold Cup and CONCACAF Cup triumphs. But Friday’s opponent Costa Rica also can stake a claim to being the region’s best after its World Cup performance and the fact that, after two matches, it tops the Hex standings....

El Tri open the tournament in Russia against Cristiano Ronaldo and the European champions June 18 in Kazan. Juan Carlos Osorio’s men then travel to Sochi to face Oceania champion New Zealand on June 21 before returning to Kazan to close the group stage against the host nation June 24. World Cup champion Germany, Asian Cup winner Australia and Copa America champion Chile were drawn into Group B, which also will feature the winner of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations....

Endemic to the northern Gulf of California alone, the vaquita is a critically endangered species of porpoise that is known for its shy and retiring nature, according to the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD). Marine biologists estimate that only about 10 of the animals remain alive as an indirect consequence of illegal fishing activity in their native habitat. In short, “the animal’s extinction is virtually assured without bold and immediate action,” CBD representatives wrote in a March 2019 press release....

El Tri have lost their last four World Cup qualification matches on American soil, with their last qualifying win in the U.S. coming in 1972. But for Jurgen Damm, who was called into the team to replace injured Tigres teammate Javier Aquino, the new generation of Mexican players won’t be as affected mentally by past meetings. Marquez forgetting about past Columbus results “We all want to change history, to get a good result first of all for ourselves, for the national team, for the coaching staff and for all the Mexicans who are supporting us,” Damm said....

In a press conference on Monday, the president advised those who are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 to assume they have the virus. Instead of getting tested, he also recommended that all potentially afflicted people isolate and take paracetamol until they no longer have any symptoms. This announcement comes as Mexico faces a dangerous shortage of COVID-19 tests after previously calling mass testing a waste of money. However, Mexico is not the only country to be stricken by a COVID-19 testing shortage....

Mexico’s support for Cuba’s government, as well as its desire to reopen ties with North Korea, put the key U.S. trading partner at odds with leaders in Washington, D.C. The U.S. has for decades had tense relations with Cuba due to Washington’s opposition to the communist government there, while also technically remaining at war with North Korea despite the conflict’s unofficial end in 1953. “We have a position of hands-off around the world, we respect all governments, and we want to reopen the relationship with North Korea as well, like any other country,” Ebrard told reporters on the sidelines of a United Nations Security Council meeting in New York this weekend, Bloomberg reported....

The heavy 3-0 defeat to Uruguay on Thursday was one of Mexico’s poorest performances and it came just five months out from the start of the 2022 World Cup, where El Tri will be competing in a tough group against Lionel Messi’s Argentina, Robert Lewandowski’s Poland and Saudi Arabia. Facing questions and calls to resign does not make for an ideal work environment for Martino, who continues to deflect the criticism, stating that friendly results don’t matter and only the World Cup does....

Hell, why change now? Why get to this point, after three years of grinding and pushing and building; after four months of three quarterbacks and bad injuries and bad breaks, and take a knee when the moment demanded an exclamation? “There was no way we weren’t going in,” Ezekiel Elliott says. Because that’s not the way Urban Meyer works. Not the way the game’s most ruthless, relentless — and respected, once again — coach runs his business....

Social media was ablaze with cell phone videos out of South Beach in Miami Saturday as thousands of spring breakers ignored one-year of social distancing guidelines and partied in the streets. One such attendee was a man whose face was painted to resemble Batman nemesis, the Joker.
