NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (13-5)OPEN CAMP: July 27, Foxborough, MassachusettsLAST YEAR: Tom Brady was initially hit last offseason with four-game suspension he will serve for role in Deflategate. Appeal overturned Commissioner Roger Goodells punishment in time for Brady to suit up for 2015 season. Led by league-best 36 regular season touchdowns, New England weathered rash of injuries on way to AFC East crown. But Patriots couldnt overcome health issues in AFC championship game, as they fell to eventual Super Bowl champion Broncos.IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: TE Martellus Bennett, G Jonathan Cooper, WR Chris Hogan, LB Shea McClellin, DT Terrance Knighton, CB Cyrus Jones, QB Jacoby Brissett.IMPORTANT LOSSES: DE Chandler Jones, DTs Akiem Hicks and Dominique Easley, WR Brandon LaFell.CAMP NEEDS: Despite having punishment reinstated, Brady will participate in all preseason practices and games. Still, team will need to balance how he splits reps with backup Jimmy Garoppolo and Brissett, who will both need to be ready to play. Readiness of RB Dion Lewis, working way back from torn left ACL, is focal point. Integrating Bennett and evaluating new additions like Cooper and Knighton are also priorities.EXPECTATIONS: New England has been juggernaut in AFC East since it became Bradys team.

Thats exactly what they got in Tuesday nights 3-0 win over Toronto. Ubaldo Jimenez and three relievers combined on a shutout while the offence made the most of four hits to help the Indians rebound from losing three of four to the Tigers, who came into town and widened their lead in the American League Central. "This was a nice bounce-back win," manager Terry Francona said. "We didnt do a lot offensively but we played a crisp game. Again, it starts with pitching." Jimenez (7-4) dodged constant trouble in six innings, allowing five hits with two walks and four strikeouts. Cody Allen, Joe Smith and Chris Perez blanked Toronto over the final three innings. Perez allowed two hits in the ninth, but earned his 10th save as the Indians recorded their AL-leading 11th shutout. Nick Swisher and Michael Brantley had RBI singles in the fourth when the Indians put together a walk and three straight singles off starter Josh Johnson (1-4), who gave up two runs in seven innings. Asdrubal Cabrera added a sacrifice fly in the eighth. The win was also a nice bounce-back performance for Jimenez, who took a 5-0 lead into the sixth in his last start against Kansas City, but didnt retire a batter in that inning and the Indians went on to lose 10-7. When faced with trouble this time, Jimenez didnt buckle. "Like they say in baseball, you have to forget quick," he said. "You cant be thinking about bad stuff that happened. You have to forget about that and move on." "He pitched around some things but he never let it spiral or get out of hand," Francona said. "There was a lot of things to like." Toronto stranded nine runners, with seven in the first five innings, and was 1 for 12 with runners in scoring position. Maicer Izturis and Rajai Davis singled with one out in the ninth, but J.P. Arencibia struck out and pinch hitter Josh Thole lined out to shortstop. The Blue Jays best threat against Jimenez came in the fourth when they had runners on first and third with nobody out. Colby Rasmus started the inning with a double and took third on Izturis single. Davis hit into a fielders choice and stole second but Arencibia struck out and Emilio Bonifacio flied out to deep right. Jimenezs strongest inning came in the sixth, the only time he retired the side in order.dddddddddddd After finishing 9-17 with a 5.40 ERA in 2012, the right-hander has had much better results this season. He has won his last three decisions and is 4-1 with a 2.93 ERA in his last eight starts. "Hes done a pretty damn good job," Francona said. "He should be proud. What happened last season was difficult for him. He gives us a chance to win. Well take that." Johnson retired the first 10 hitters before Cabrera drew a one-out walk in the fourth. Johnson fell behind 3-0 before a foul ball and called strike ran the count full. Cabrera walked on an inside pitch before Jason Kipnis hit a hard ground ball past shortstop Jose Reyes for Clevelands first hit. Swisher bounced a single through the right side that scored Cabrera and moved Kipnis to third. Brantleys line single to right made it 2-0. Johnson beat Baltimore on June 23 for his only win of the season, allowing four runs in six innings. He was sidelined from April 21 to June 9 with right triceps inflammation. Johnson won his first career start against the Indians on May 20, 2012, while pitching for Miami. Toronto has lost each of Johnsons last three starts. The Blue Jays are 5-10 since winning 11 straight from June 11-23. "We outhit them, but we just didnt outscore them," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. "Thats what hurts. We had our chances, but we just couldnt get that big hit tonight." NOTES: The start of Tuesdays game was delayed by rain for 36 minutes. ...
