Sergio Romo tested free agency, had some offers and decided he wanted to stay put in San Francisco, pitching for the only major league organization he has known. The animated reliever finalized a $15 million, two-year contract with the Giants on Monday, who kept a key component that has been part of three championship runs. "When it comes to professional baseball, this has been my home," Romo said. "I'm very thankful for every opportunity that I've gotten. This was a place I was able to make a n

Darryl Strawberry did the work, but now you can collect his money from the New York Mets. The Internal Revenue Service is auctioning off the remaining annuity from the deferred compensation Strawberry agreed to when he signed a six-year contract with the Mets almost 30 years ago. The total value of the contract, which covered his 1985 through 1990 seasons, was $7.1 million, but nearly 40 percent of his $1.8 million team option in 1990 ($700,000) was deferred and put into an annuity with a 5.1 pe

There was always a special connection between former Canadiens captain Saku Koivu and the fans of Montreal. Koivu received a nearly five-minute standing ovation as part of a 30-minute pregame tribute. That brought tears to the eyes of the 40-year-old Koivu, who retired after spending the last five years of his 18-year NHL career in Anaheim. "I always felt that I was respected as a player and for the way I played the game, but what makes me feel humble was the way I was loved by the fans," Koivu

A sixth man has pleaded guilty to playing a key role in illegally providing performance-enhancing drugs to Major League Baseball players and other athletes. Juan Carlos Nunez pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy to distribute testosterone, which carries a maximum 10-year prison sentence. Court documents say Nunez referred several players to the defunct Biogenesis of America clinic operated by Anthony Bosch. Many of the players referred by Nunez had origins in the Dominican Republic and Venezuela.

Jake Peavy has reached an agreement on a two-year, $24 million contract with the Giants. The deal will pay Peavy base salaries of $7 million in 2015 and $13 million in 2016, the source said. It includes a $4 million signing bonus, a full no-trade clause and an awards package. Peavy, 33, is 139-111 with a 3.53 ERA in parts of 13 seasons with San Diego, the Chicago White Sox, Boston and San Francisco. He is a three-time All-Star who won the National League Cy Young Award with the Padres in 2007. A

Matt Kemp has joined the Padres after San Diego and the Los Angeles finalized a five-player trade. The teams agreed to the trade last week during the winter meetings in San Diego. It was the first of three big deals by new Padres general manager A.J. Preller, who also has added outfielder Wil Myers, the 2013 AL Rookie of the Year, from Tampa Bay and All-Star catcher Derek Norris from Oakland. The Padres, desperate to pump up the worst offense in the majors, also get $32 million from the Dodgers

K.J. Wright has agreed to a four-year contract extension with the Seahawks. The deal is reportedly worth $27 million. "I'm just glad they chose for me to stick around. It's a blessing," Wright said. "There were times when I wondered if I would be here or not, but they told me they would find a way to make it happen and they did. I had a number in my head and they exceeded it." Wright was the team's fourth-round draft choice (99th overall) in the 2011 NFL draft. He has started 54 of 58 games pla

Dallas Eakins was fired as coach of the Edmonton Oilers, who have lost 15 of 16 games and are well on the way to missing the playoffs for the ninth consecutive season. General manager Craig MacTavish will coach the team until the job is given to Todd Nelson, who is being promoted to interim head coach from Edmonton's American Hockey League affiliate in Oklahoma City. MacTavish did not say when he would return to the front office. MacTavish called Eakins an "excellent coach" but said something ha

Suspended Los Angeles Kings’ defenseman Slava Voynov will stand trial on a felony charge of domestic violence after a judge deemed there to be sufficient evidence to move forward with the case. The 24-year-old Voynov, who was charged with a felony count of corporal injury to a spouse with great bodily injury last month, appeared in a Torrance, California, court for a preliminary hearing during which shocking details emerged. According to reports of police testimony, an officer of the Redondo

Winnipeg Jets’ defenseman Jacob Trouba will be out for at least six weeks with an upper-body injury. Trouba has been one of the team's top defensemen this season with 12 points, four goals and eight assists in 31 games. "He's had a kind of pre-existing condition that most players deal with," coach Paul Maurice said Tuesday. "And what you're hopeful for is that it heals, it gets better and progresses and he had the opposite experience. "Things started to get progressively a little bit worse on hi
