Oklahoma City Joins Runs In Carpenter

Baseball Betting Lines

This season also followed up the previous two years -- in 2009 he was an All- Star -- where he had a combined 62 saves in 121 games and allowed just nine home runs.

 

Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Cubs activated infielder Darwin Barney from the 15-day disabled list and granted pitcher Doug Davis his unconditional release Wednesday. Barney was placed on the disabled list with a left knee sprain he suffered June 13 against Milwaukee.

 

Davis had his contract selected by Chicago on May 14 and went 1-7 with a 6.50 ERA in nine starts this season.

 

Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Astros made several roster moves Wednesday, as announced by general manager Ed Wade. Outfielder Jason Bourgeois was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right quad. Bourgeois left Tuesday's game against the Rangers in the eighth inning after tweaking the quad. In 45 games this season for Houston, Bourgeois was hitting .353 with nine RBI and 14 runs scored.

 

The Astros also recalled pitcher David Carpenter from Oklahoma City and claimed outfielder Luis Durango off waivers.

 

Durango has been placed on the 40-man roster and optioned to Oklahoma City.

 

Lowe (4-6) gave up one run, four hits and three walks to notch his first win since beating Philadelphia on May 6. He had gone 0-3 with a 5.29 ERA in his previous nine starts.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
