WINNIPEG -- The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are taking a
serious look this week at two of their top contenders for
the first round of next months CFL draft -- a pair of
offensive linemen who, they hope, are capable of starting
this season and filling a hole at centre. "Pierre
Lavertus here now, Matthias Goossens coming in tomorrow,"
general manager Kyle Walters said Tuesday. "Were going to
let (offensive line coach) Bob Wylie take a look at these
guys, put them through a workout. The offensive staff
will get them up on the board, you know, start talking
about some of our systems, see how they react." McGills
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif and Montreals David Foucault are
currently ranked first and second in the draft but both
offensive linemen also are expected to draw a lot of
interest from the NFL. Lavals Lavertu and Simon Frasers
Goossen are the next top-ranked offensive linemen --
Lavertu at third overall currently and Goossen at ninth.
Goossen made a big jump in the CFL winter rankings to No.
5 spot from 15th and Lavertu was also ranked a spot ahead
of Foucault in the January list. All four are highly
regarded. Miles Gorrell, who played 19 CFL seasons as an
offensive lineman including four with Winnipeg, was
scouting for the Ottawa Redblacks at this years CFL
combine and spoke highly of their talent. "Their footwork
and hand placement are very good, its clear theyre well
coached," Gorrell said. "You see guys like Pierre
Lavertu, David Foucault and Matthias Goossen stepping up
to the plate and being able to prove to the coaches and
scouts theyre ready to take the next step." With the No.
2 pick in this years draft May 13, Walters sounded pretty
confident they can get one of the players theyve
identified as meeting their needs. But despite Winnipegs
last-place finish last season, they have to stand in line
behind the expansion Redblacks, who get to pick first.
The Bombers lost free agent Justin Sorensen, last seasons
starter at centre, to the Edmonton Eskimos. The Eskimos,
like the Bombers, are trying to strengthen their
offensive line. The Bombers took a chance on their top
pick last season, defensive lineman Andy Mulumba, and
lost. He signed with the NFLs Green Bay Packers. Walters,
who took over after former general manager Joe Mack was
sacked last season, wants this year to be different.
"Were doing everything we can to make sure we make the
right pick and get the right guy we want here in
Winnipeg." He says there have been a few calls from other
teams interested in their No. 2 pick but either nothing
serious or, in the case of the only solid offer, nothing
they would even remotely consider. This season their wish
list and the draft seem to be aligned reasonably well.
"Obviously sitting at No. 2, youre sure if youve got two
guys that you like you can get one of the two . . . If
thats not the case, then you maybe go down a different
route," Walters said. "In a perfect world we hope that we
like both these guys and if Ottawa takes one were
perfectly fine with the other." At the same time, he
didnt limit their interest to Lavertu and Goossen but
said theyre the only two players they could bring in
right now. "Some of the guys that weve reached out to,
the agents havent been overly receptive to bringing them
in," he said.

The Goldeyes (10-7) lost 4-1 to the Saltdogs (8-9) Sunday
afternoon before 5,834 sizzling fans at Shaw Park. The
loss drops Winnipegs record to 3-4 during this past weeks
seven-game homestand.

started in the second. Getzlaf scored the first two goals
in the second, and Teemu Selanne scored the go-ahead goal
late in the period as the Anaheim Ducks beat the
Nashville Predators 4-3 Thursday night.

Hill-Pelicans-Jersey/">Solomon Hill Jersey . Leave
it to Matt Niskanen, the newly proclaimed Eddie Haskell
of the Washington Capitals.NEW YORK -- With each swing,
Mike Napoli and the Boston Red Sox are suddenly turning
every game into slow-pitch softball. Napoli hit two home
runs, Jonny Gomes and prized rookie Xander Bogaerts also
connected, and the Red Sox kept up their dizzying scoring
spree at Yankee Stadium by bashing New York 13-9 Saturday
for a fifth straight win. "Sometimes youre like, Whats
going on? Because what were doing now is pretty crazy,"
Napoli said. The AL East leaders became the first
visiting team in more than a century to score at least
nine runs on three straight days against the Yankees. In
fact, the last time it happened, they werent called the
Yankees -- Boston did it in 1912 to the Highlanders at
Hilltop Park. Add in a 20-4 pasting of Detroit on
Wednesday, and the highest-scoring team in the majors has
amassed this four-game total: 54 runs, 17 homers and 64
hits. "Were doing it in bulk right now," Gomes said. Down
12-3, the Yankees rallied with four runs in the sixth
inning and chased John Lackey (9-12). Mark Reynolds added
a two-run double in the eighth off Red Sox reliever Drake
Britton that made it 12-9. "Considering the number of
runs scored by both teams, no lead seems to feel safe,"
Red Sox manager John Farrell said. David Ortiz and Dustin
Pedroia each contributed to Bostons five doubles. By the
end of the fourth inning, it was 10-2 and every Red Sox
batter had gotten a hit. They had all scored, too, except
for Pedroia. Each line drive that echoed around the
ballpark was met by noticeable groans from New York fans.
A couple of "Lets go, Red Sox!" chants broke out among
the many Boston fans. Even Bostons loud outs hurt. Right
fielder Ichiro Suzuki slammed into the padded wall
catching a drive by Ortiz and stayed down for a moment.
Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter was pulled for a pinch-
runner after an RBI single in the sixth and went to a
hospital for a precautionary CT scan on his left ankle.
The team said the preliminary results were negative.
Jeter has missed most of the season while recovering from
a broken left ankle in the playoffs last year. The 39-
year-old team captain is hitting .190 in 17 games for the
wild-card contenders. "Im nnot sure whats going to happen
right now," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.dddddddddddd
Fresh off routing the Tigers, the Red Sox arrived in the
Bronx and beat the Yankees 9-8 in 10 innings Thursday and
rallied for a 12-8 win Friday. A day after launching a
grand slam, Napoli hit a two-run homer in the second and
a solo drive in the ninth. Gomes added a three-run shot.
Bogaerts doubled early, then hit a two-run shot in the
fifth for his first major league homer. In the bottom
half, the 20-year-old shortstop charged in for a nifty
barehanded pickup to throw out Robinson Cano. Bogaerts
homer sailed over the Boston bullpen into the left-centre
field bleachers. He didnt get to watch it, though,
because he felt a cramp in his leg as he connected. "I
knew I hit it good," he said. The Yankees scored at least
six runs for the sixth game in a row. That wasnt enough
for David Huff (2-1), tagged for nine runs and eight hits
in 3 1-3 innings. Huff made his first start of the
season, moving from the bullpen to the rotation in place
of ineffective Phil Hughes. "They capitalized on all my
mistakes today. On my part, it was terrible," Huff said.
Boston improved to 10-5 against New York this year and
won all three series at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox won
minus centre fielder Jacoby Ellsbury. His injured right
foot was put in a protective boot, and there is no
timetable for his return to the lineup. NOTES: Even with
54 runs, the Red Sox didnt come close to their record for
a four-game span. Boston scored 65 in four straight in
June 1950, STATS said. ... Napoli had his 13th career
multihomer game. ... Boston LHP Jon Lester (13-8, 3.88)
starts Sunday afternoon vs. RHP Hiroki Kuroda (11-10,
2.99). ... Farrell said RHP Clay Buchholz was travelling
to New York to rejoin the team. The Red Sox hope
Buchholz, on the 60-day DL with a neck strain, can start
Tuesday night at Tampa Bay. ... Yankees 3B Alex Rodriguez
got a day off for rest. ... Gomes had an adventure in LF.
He struggled as Brett Gardners two-run double flew over
his head in the sixth, made a tumbling, awkward catch on
Lyle Overbays fly to the warning track and fought the sun
for another grab.
