Ringstar Sports promoter Richard Schaefer -- back in boxing after 2 1/2 years away after resigning as chief executive of Golden Boy Promotions, which he co-founded with Oscar De La Hoya -- continued to beef up his stable of young talent on Monday.Schaefer announced that he has signed 22-year-old welterweight Eimantas Stanionis, a highly coveted 2016 Lithuanian Olympian.Being able to add a fighter like Eimantas Stanionis to our growing group of world class fighters is a great pleasure, Schaefer said. Stanionis is a very accomplished young man who works very hard at his craft. He could be the next great Eastern European fighter to come over to the U.S. and make it big. We expect him to make big waves in the welterweight division. Now that he has joined Ringstar, we are looking forward to working with him and making his dreams a reality.Stanionis is the fourth fighter Schaefer has signed in recent weeks. Previously, he signed two other 2016 Olympians: American lightweight Carlos Balderas and middleweight Misael Rodriguez, a bronze medalist for Mexico. Schaefer also signed bantamweight Jose Balderas, Carlos older brother.Im very excited to be joining Ringstar Sports, and I am looking forward to starting my professional career, Stanionis said. Ive watched boxing my whole life, and I always knew that Richard was a great promoter. Hes a very good man, and I feel that my career is in good hands. I think I have the best team around me, and they will help me get to where I want to go.Stanionis began boxing in 2007 and went 141-19 in the amateur ranks, including four senior national championships and two youth national titles. He won gold at the 2015 European Championships.At the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in August, Stanionis won his opening-round match, and then was eliminated by eventual silver medalist Shakhram Giyasov, of Uzbekistan.He really impressed us at the Olympics, Schaefer said. I am very fortunate to have him. He has several TV stations in Lithuania that are interested in his fights and have already talked to us. The kid is going to be a big star in Lithuania, but his style is extremely fan-friendly and going to appeal to boxing fans wherever they are from. I expect big things from him.Schaefer said Stanionis will make his professional debut in late February in Los Angeles on a card that will also feature the pro debuts of the Balderas brothers and Rodriguez.I am a hard puncher, and I do whatever it takes to win, Stanionis said. I think boxing fans will be excited by my style. I want to be the first world champion ever from Lithuania. My goal is to make history.

OXON HILL, Md. -- Carlos Gomez is staying with the Texas Rangers.The outfielder agreed to an $11.5 million, one-year contract, a deal subject to a successful physical.Many of the objectives of the Rangers for Carlos go beyond one year, his agent, Scott Boras, said Wednesday. Certainly Carlos really enjoyed the team and the environment and feels hes got a great chance to win. So I think both parties objectives were met by that deal.Gomez, who turned 31 last weekend, figures to play center as general manager Jon Daniels structured an outfield that includes Shin-Soo Choo in right and Nomar Mazara in left. Ian Desmond left Wednesday for a $70 million, five-year deal with Colorado.Gomez batted just .210 witth five homers in 85 games this year for Houston and was released by the Astros in August.dddddddddddd He signed with Texas and hit .284 with eight homers and 24 RBI in 33 games. An All-Star in 2013 and 14 with Milwaukee, Gomez has a .257 average and 116 home runs in 10 big league seasons.J.D. was very clear from the onset about them wanting Carlos back, and weve had communication since the seasons end to pursue that, Boras said. So it was something in our minds and in their minds. It was just a constant dialogue.---AP Sports Writer Howard Fendrich contributed to this report. ' ' '
