SPORTS Thursday, February 15, 2018 East Oregonian MLB Pitchers, catchers begin workouts By NOAH TRISTER AP Baseball Writer BLAZERS: Next game is Feb. 23 at red-hot Utah Jazz Continued from 1B Justin Verlander is looking forward to a full season with the Houston Astros, while the New York Mets are hoping for a healthier year for their starting staff. The New York Yankees? Well, this season may not be about their pitchers and catchers, but they can still send some pretty impressive arms to the mound. In many ways, Wednesday was the first real day of spring training, with over 20 teams scheduled for their first workouts with pitchers and catchers. The Astros, Mets and Yankees were among that group, and so were the Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs. In both Florida and Arizona, some of the game’s biggest stars were back on the field. “I’m excited to be here for the whole season,” Verlander said. “I’m excited to be here for spring training and to be part of this whole thing from start to finish.” Verlander reached the summit last year but missed much of the journey. He was traded to Houston at the end of August and became a key part of the Astros’ run to the World Series title. Houston beat the Dodgers in Game 7, and both of last year’s pennant winners figure to be strong again. “You’ve just got to take that as a motivation and remember that bitter taste,” Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen said. “We all were crying and all that stuff in the clubhouse and we all were emotional. You have to take that as a motivation to push and don’t take anything for granted, because we know how hard it is.” The Dodgers won’t have right- hander Yu Darvish this season. He’s with the Cubs now. In fact, the Dodgers may have to compete for attention in their own area after the Los Angeles Angels added two-way Japanese star Shohei Ohtani. There was a group of Japanese and was listed as questionable against the Warriors with low back soreness, a right calf strain, and right oblique pain. But he started and finished with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Portland jumped out to a 19-8 lead after Lillard hit a pair of 3-pointers and McCollum added another one. Lillard’s layup extended the Blazers’ lead to 38-18. Lillard finished the first quarter with 18 points. Portland led 63-51 at the half. Durant made a 3-pointer and a free throw to narrow the score to 74-73 in the third quarter, his second four-point play of the game. It was as close as the Warriors could get in the quarter and Portland led 92-87 going into the final period. Durant had 18 points in the third quarter alone.

The Yankees made a huge offseason move of their own, adding Giancarlo Stanton to a lineup that already included slugger Aaron Judge. Those two power-hitting outfielders may be the headliners in New York this year — the big news Wednesday was that Judge hit in a batting cage — but the Yankees will need pitching too. Right-hander Masahiro Tanaka threw a bullpen session Wednesday. New York also has a new manager in Aaron Boone. “We’ve been working toward this day,” Boone said. “So there’s an excitement not just for me but the coaches and the players to finally get out here and know that the clock on the season in a way kind of started.” The Mets have a new manager as well. Mickey Callaway was previously the pitching coach in Cleveland, and he could have some impressive starters to work with if the Mets stay healthy. Noah Syndergaard, Steven Matz, Matt Harvey and Zack Wheeler have had their share of injury issues. Wheeler, Syndergaard, Seth Lugo and Matz were all lined up throwing their bullpens under the watchful eyes of general manager Sandy Alderson and new pitching coach Dave Eiland. When he was done working out, Syndergaard signed autographs for fans draped over the chain-link fence along the right-field warning track. “I think we’re all able to learn kind of in our own way how to deal with a certain amount of adversity through injury,” Syndergaard said. “But in terms of us being able to control that, we can only control so much. We can only put so much effort and time into the weight room. After that it’s really in God’s plan, what happens.” The Mets at least could have some upside if they catch a few breaks. The Miami Marlins traded Stanton as part of an offseason payroll purge and face what figures to be a tough short-term future. Derek Jeter, the Marlins’ CEO, was at the team’s camp Wednesday, and he signed autographs as he left. “There’s obviously a lot of new faces,” Miami manager Don Mattingly said. “In the locker room you feel the youth and guys who are excited and know there’s an opportunity here. ...We all look at it as this is a start. This is brand new. This is a beginning.” Page 3B Staff photo by Alexis Mansanarez BULLDOGS: Campos plans to study business and marketing Continued from 1B head coach Ben Robert say his potential, and spoke highly of him via the team’s Twitter account. “Antonio is a quality goal- keeper that has proven his ability to keep clean sheets,” Robert said. “Antonio possess a great amount of athleticism to make top-class saves. He is also extremely tech- nical with his feet allowing us to play through him and out of the back.” He’s been working on those skills since his freshman season when former head coach Rich Harshberger came him a shot on varsity. “He brought me in as a freshman and gave me a starting position right away,” Campos said. “He really built my confi- dence up and brought me to the level I’m at right now.” While at Walla Walla, Campos will pursue a business and marketing degree. Gutierrez will be working toward an exercise science major and business minor, and Hinkle will work toward a goal of even- tually becoming a P.E. teacher. ——— Contact Alexis at aman- sanarez@eastoregonian.com or 541-564-4542.
