Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court says it’s not enough for governors to send out a news release when they are vetoing a bill during legislative adjournment…they also have to issue a formal public notice. The justices ruled yesterday that partial vetoes of appropriations and fiscal code amendment bills by Governor Tom Corbett in 2014 were not valid. The court said the vetoes failed because Corbett did not specify that he had filed and bills and his objections in the secretary of state’s office.

Pirates trade Ngoepe to Toronto
The Pittsburgh Pirates have announced that the Toronto Blue Jays have acquired infielder Gift Ngoepe from the Pirates. There was no room on the Pirates as the club goes about trimming its 40-man rosters in advance of the Rule 5 draft. A player to be named later or cash will head to Pittsburgh in return.
Ngoepe, 27, became the first African-born player to reach the majors when he debuted in 2017. Though he moved around in Pittsburgh, Ngoepe has spent the bulk of his minor-league time at shortstop and is regarded as a proficient middle infielder.
Ngoepe could function as an optionable utility piece in Toronto.
