Oakland Raiders 2010 Training Camp Preview

REPORT DATE: July 28th
SITE: Napa Valley Marriott, Napa Valley, CA
CAMP OBJECTIVES: Raiders fans are grateful that the JaMarcus Russell experiment is over, but that doesn't mean they'll have great patience if Jason Campbell fails to look crisp in his first training camp with the Silver and Black. They'll want to see him and the other Oakland QBs (Kyle Boller, Bruce Gradkowski, Charlie Frye) connecting with a developing group of Raider wideouts, including 2009 first-rounder Darrius Heyward-Bey. If those targets don't develop, don't be surprised to see the Raiders court Terrell Owens. In the backfield, Darren McFadden and Michael Bush will compete to an extent, though there is probably room for both. Along a shaky offensive line, Mario Henderson and Langston Walker are penciled in as the starters, but intriguing rookies Jared Veldheer and Bruce Campbell will merit watching. On defense, the big battles are at end, where Jay Richardson, Matt Shaugnessy and rookie LaMarr Houston (Texas) are fighting for a starting job opposite Richard Seymour, and at free safety, where Michael Huff and Hiram Eugene are competing.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
