On March 20, Judge told reporters that he had also suffered a pneumothorax —​ a partial collapse of the lung —​ which is not uncommon with rib fractures, but nevertheless a big shock considering it was never mentioned. No need for Yankees fans or fantasy baseball owners to worry, though: Judge said the lung has healed.

Brent Underwood, a young entrepreneur, bought the abandoned California ghost town of Cerro Gordo in 2018 for $1.4 million. Cerro Gordo was once known for mining silver and lead, and between 1865 and 1938 was the largest producer of the two before its resources dried up. Like most other mining towns around the world, it turned into yet another dead swathe of Western land. In March 2020, when the coronavirus was still in its early stages, Underwood visited Cerro Gordo from his hometown of Austin, Texas, thinking of it as one week vacation and also to relieve the town’s on-site caretaker, who wanted to visit his wife as the coronavirus hit the U....

Belotti has been linked to the Rossoneri as well as several Premier League sides in recent transfer windows, but Torino insisted they would not let their captain go for less than €100 million. The two sides held talks in the summer transfer window, but Milan’s attempts to use M’Baye Niang in a part-exchange deal for Belotti only angered Torino.
