Pitchers, catchers begin workouts

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.

Angeles Clippers on Feb. 22.

fans on hand for Ohtani’s workout
with the Angels .
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.”

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.
