Though Ivanka Trump was a prominent figure in the Trump administration, it sounds like she is trying to keep her distance as a potential indictment looms. “They want nothing to do with this,” a source shared of Donald Trump potentially being arrested for allegedly paying Stormy Daniels $130,000 to keep quiet about their alleged affair. “They are staying away and don’t want to be hounded by reporters. I don’t think you will see them defending him, it will be no comment.”“Ivanka lost a lot of friends and her social scenes during his presidency … They want to put it in...

In the recap to Friday night’s Cubs loss to the Guardians, I speculated that Adrian Sampson wouldn’t make the Opening Day roster. That has now happened, as the Cubs announced before Saturday’s game that Sampson had been optioned to Triple-A Iowa. Perhaps Sampson might be able to get things back together there, but at some point he’s either going to have to do that or the team will need that 40-man spot for someone else. As always, we await developments. (One other pregame roster move: Vinny Nittoli was reassigned to minor-league camp. That leaves 39 players in camp with five days to go.)
