Carp hopes for new results

FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) – Mike Carp is eager for his new start with his new team in a new season, and seems ready to finally forget the nightmare that was 2012. After all, with three stints on the disabled list and an injury in his first game last year, it couldn’t have been much worse. Playing left field for Seattle on opening night last year, Carp was injured trying to make a diving catch. It was the first time he was on a season-opening roster and wanted to impress. Instead, he suffered a right shoulder sprain and was on the disabled list until May 1.
