TORONTO - Toronto FC addressed the issue of defensive depth with two acquisitions Monday but other questions remained on Day 1 of training camp.Who will captain the MLS team? Will star signing Sebastian Giovinco come sooner than later? Where does Brazilian striker Gilbertos future lie? And whats going on with English forward Luke Moore?Toronto unveiled Damien Perquis, signed from Spains Real Betis, and Eriq Zavaleta, acquired via trade from Seattle, as the team had its first workout under the bubble on a grey, chilly day at the TFC training centre.Those additions ticked one box, but camp opened with a large question-mark over the captain.Veteran Scottish centre back Steven Caldwell is the incumbent. And while the proud Caldwell has worn his heart on his sleeve in leading the team, all signs recently have pointed to a change in leadership.American star midfielder Michael Bradley, who wore the armband when Caldwell was injured or suspended last season, is clearly seen as the heart of the team.Tim Leiweke, president and CEO of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, has made a point of talking up Bradleys role in helping land stars Jozy Altidore and Sebastian Giovinco. Bradley, said Leiweke, was in the information loop all along.Caldwell was asked Monday whether his input was sought.No I wasnt consulted, he answered.The 34-year-old Scot said he would be disappointed to lose the captaincy.I love being captain of this football club, he said. Ive captained every team Ive played for since I was 15 so its something that I relish, I enjoy and I think Im quite good at it. Its a great honour to be captain of any club. I dont treat it lightly. I love being captain of Toronto. So I hope to stay that.Head coach Greg Vanney and general manager Tim Bezbatchenko sidestepped the issue.We havent really crossed that bridge entirely yet, said Vanney. We want to see all our faces (in camp) and sit down and give the proper respect to everybody in the group so that they understand how were going to be moving forward.Bradley, along with striker Jozy Altidore, is away with the U.S. national team until Feb. 9 so it will take a while for that sit-down. In the meantime, the issue of captain remains a topic of conversation.Bezbatchenko deferred the issue of captain to his coach.While Giovinco is scheduled to join Toronto in July after his contact with Juventus expires, there has been chatter the designated player could arrive sooner.Hell be coming as soon as we possibly can get him here, said Vanney.Bezbatchenko was somewhat more cautious about an early Giovinco arrival.We have not spoken one word with Juventus about that, the GM said. Its something we would entertain because if we can get a player of that quality for the entire season, that would help our roster. But hes a Juventus player, we havent spoken to them yet and Ill guess well just see.Which begs the question why not ask?As of right now hes a player for them ... theyre in a position where they need top players, said Bezbatchenko, shedding no more light on the matter.Gilberto, meanwhile, remains in Brazil while the team sorts out its designated player logjam. Only three are allowed and Toronto, with Altidore, Bradley, Gilberto and Giovinco, has four.With no expectation of any immediate roster rule changes, Toronto has to shed a DP by March 1, which is roster compliance day.Were working through our options now with the league, Bezbatchenko said of Gilberto. There could be a trade, it could be a loan or a transfer.Moore, meanwhile, was absent Monday. Bezbatchenko said the club was finalizing a possible new deal that would have the English forward back in the fold in days.Returning players were optimistic about the off-season player moves.Its never boring around here, but I think it just shows that this club is committed to winning, said fullback Justin Morrow. Thats what you want to be around as a player so Im excited to be here and Im excited to start the season.Zavaleta, a former Seattle first-round pick and Vanneys nephew, cost Toronto a second-round draft choice. Perquis is expected to partner Caldwell at centre back, with young backup options in Nick Hagglund, Zavaleta and draft choices Clement Simonin and Skylar Thomas.The team will train the rest of the week indoors before flying Sunday to Orlando.

On Saturday, they saw a glimpse of that ability against Oakland. Gausman earned his first win as a starter while Adam Jones and David Lough each homered, leading the Orioles over the Athletics, 6-3. Called up from Triple-A Norfolk earlier in the day, Gausman (1-1) set career highs by pitching seven innings and striking out six. Gausman, the fourth overall pick in the 2012 draft, gave up one run and four hits and walked one. He had made six previous starts in the majors over two seasons. "Its always huge when you get a win, especially against a team like the As," Gausman said. "Theyre playing great baseball right now. Its been a fun serious to watch so far. Hopefully, we can win the series tomorrow." Jones hit his ninth homer, a solo shot in the first. Lough, who entered the game batting just .184, hit his second homer. Still, Jones said the difference in the game was how Gausman contained Oaklands powerful lineup. "Hes getting the opportunity," Jones said. "This game is all about confidence. Its not about necessarily about stuff. Your stuff will get you here, but your confidence. "Now hes going to get his shot to start. I told him, Hey, go after him. Use your stuff. Youve got a good arm for a reason, so use your stuff and go after them. " Sonny Gray (6-2) allowed a season-high five runs and four hits and four walks in 5 1-3 innings, his shortest outing of the year. "I felt really good there early in the game, then it was like four or five hitters, and the game just kind of blew up on me right there," Gray said. "I just went out and started throwing balls, and I dont know why. I got behind a lot of hitters that inning, and it was just too many balls, then that one big hit." Coco Crisp got three hits for Oakland. He connected in the third for his fourth home run, and extended his hitting streak to a season-high 11 games. It was 1-all before Baltimore scored three times in the fifth to give Gausman a cushion. Lough drew a onee-out walk and Caleb Joseph followed with a double, setting up RBI singles by Nick Markakis and Manny Machado.dddddddddddd The As threatened in the sixth when Alberto Callaspo and Eric Sogard led off with singles and advanced on a wild pitch. Gausman escaped by striking out Josh Donaldson and Brandon Moss. "Kevin was good, really good," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "Got his feet on the ground. I thought Caleb and him worked real well together. I wanted Caleb catching him today. He had caught him, obviously, in Norfolk. "Good split, got enough breaking balls over to show a third pitch, established the inner half of the plate. Hes got pretty good stuff. He got in a couple situations and went and got another level, which was good to see." After a walk to J.J. Hardy ended Grays night, former Orioles closer Jim Johnson entered and allowed a two-run homer to Lough on his second pitch that extended Baltimores lead 6-1. Johnson got only two outs, allowing two hits. The As pulled within 6-3 in the eighth when Brian Matusz allowed a walk to Sogard and a double to Crisp. Darren ODay entered and gave up a two-run single to Kyle Blanks. "He pitched pretty well," Oakland manager Bob Melvin said about Gausman. "He hit 99 (miles per hour), and he started mixing it up and pitching a little differently. His two-seamer was significantly different from his four-seamer, in terms of velocity and movement. Then he started throwing his slider for a strike and putting away some splits." NOTES: Orioles RHP Miguel Gonzalez (strained right oblique) will throw a bullpen session Sunday or Monday and then could possibly begin a rehab start later in the week. ... Baltimore optioned LHP Tim Berry to Double-A Bowie to make room for Gausman. ... Oakland has homered in 15 consecutive games, eight games shy of the club record. . ... Oakland LHP Scott Kazmir (6-2, 2.40 ERA) faces Orioles RHP Ubaldo Jimenez (2-6, 4.39) in the series finale. ... Johnson faced his former team for the first time and drew a mixed reaction from the sold-out crowd. ' ' '
