Baseball Betting Lines

02/01/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics made a slew of roster moves Monday, including the acquisition of infielder Adam Rosales and outfielder Willy Taveras from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for infielder Aaron Miles and a player to be named later.

Rosales hit .213 with four homers and 19 RBI in 87 games, while Taveras batted .240 with one homer, 11 doubles and 15 RBI in 102 games with the Reds in 2009.

Miles hit a career-worst .185 with five RBI in 74 games with the Cubs last season.

In addition, Oakland agreed to terms with free agent outfielder Gabe Gross on a one-year contract. The 30-year-old posted a .227 average, six homers and 36 RBI in 115 contests with Tampa Bay last season.

The A's also claimed minor-league infielder Steve Tolleson off waivers from the Minnesota Twins, then designated Taveras and pitcher Dana Eveland for assignment.

Eveland went 2-4 with a 7.16 earned-run average in 13 games (nine starts) for the Athletics in 2009.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(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. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.

MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
