Los Angeles Dodgers pitchers and catchers reported for Spring Training last week, and as with most years, former players are in uniform at Camelback Ranch to aid manager Dave Roberts and his coaching staff as instructors.
Among those who are present this year is former Dodgers closer Eric Gagne, who retired after the 2008 season. While Gagne is there to help provide instruction and advice to the pitching staff, he also has an agenda of his own.
The 41-year-old has been training to play for Team Canada in the 2017 World Baseball Classic. In addition, Gagne is also considering a potential MLB comeback, according to Ken Gurnick of MLB.
