Baseball Betting Lines

06/01/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Brewers reinstated outfielder Jim Edmonds from the 15-day disabled list on Tuesday amid a host of roster moves.

Edmonds hit the DL with a strained left oblique muscle back on May 18. The lefty-hitting veteran suffered the ailment while checking his swing in an at- bat days earlier.

In 27 games this season, Edmonds is batting a respectable .280 with three home runs and eight runs batted in. This after the four-time All-Star and eight- time Gold Glove winner sat out the 2009 season. He batted a combined .235 in 111 games between the Cubs and Padres two seasons ago with 20 homers and 55 RBI.

Also Tuesday, Milwaukee optioned right-hander Marco Estrada to Triple-A Nashville. Estrada appeared in seven games, making one start, and pitched to a 9.53 earned run average over 11 1/3 innings.

Righty Kameron Loe had his contract selected from Nashville. A veteran of parts of five major league campaigns, the 28-year-old last pitched in the bigs in 2008 for Texas where he was 1-0 with a 3.23 ERA in 14 games.

Finally, outfielder Adam Stern was designated for assignment. He went hitless in eight at-bats with the Brewers in 2010.

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory.
