48+ min ago (504+ words) SAN DIEGO -- The Padres needed starting pitching this winter, and in the end, they didn't have to look very far to find it. Right-hander Michael King has agreed to a three-year deal to return to San Diego, sources told MLB.com on Thursday. The deal is worth $75 million in total and features opt outs after each of the first two seasons. It has not yet been confirmed by the club, but per a source, King has passed his physical and the signing is expected to become official on Friday morning. King, of course, spent the past two seasons in San Diego, where he blossomed into a front-of-the-rotation starting pitcher.

4+ hour, 22+ min ago (861+ words) Leo Beath says he sees himself as "an interchangeable part." Which makes him the perfect player in the UC San Diego system. "We don't do a lot of scripted stuff here, offensively or defensively," Beath said of the 10-1 Tritons, who take on future West Coast Conference rival University of San Diego (4-6) on Friday night at LionTree Arena.

It's the numbers across the board…...

It's a tricky question that he and Casbah co-owner Tim Mays are both unable to conclusively answer. "El Vez has been playing the Casbah going back to our original location in the early 1990's," Mays said. "I cannot count exactly how many times." Neither can Lopez, although he ventured a guess via email from Seattle, where he opened his San Diego-bound 2025 Merry Mex-Mas tour on Dec. 11. "I've played at the Casbah way over 100 times, for sure," he wrote, "as El Vez and with The Zeros, Covid Cola, The Unhappy Hour, The Little Richards and other bands. I've done my Merry Mex-Mas show there more than 25 times!" No matter the tally, it's been 31 years since the…...
