Baseball Betting Lines

Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics have agreed to terms with pitchers Brandon McCarthy and Joey Devine on one-year contracts for the 2012 season. McCarthy had the best season of his career with the A's last year, going 9-9 in 25 starts with a 3.32 earned run average. He set career highs in wins (9) innings pitched (170 2/3), strikeouts (123) and complete games (5).

 

McCarthy, drafted in 2002 by the Chicago White Sox, has played six seasons in the majors, spending time with both the White Sox and Rangers before joining the Athletics in 2011. He holds a 29-33 record in 135 games (81 starts) with a 4.17 ERA and 374 strikeouts in 543 1/3 innings.

 

He has appeared in just 93 games in the majors in his five-year career, going 8-3 with a 2.75 ERA.

 

Boston also avoided arbitration with Mike Aviles, signing the infielder to a one-year contract. Aviles batted .255 with seven home runs and 39 RBI in 91 combined games with Kansas City and the Red Sox last season.

 

Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Yankees have agreed to terms with pitchers Joba Chamberlain and David Robertson on one-year contracts, avoiding arbitration. Chamberlain's 2011 season was cut short due to Tommy John surgery. The burly right-hander went 2-0 with a 2.83 earned run average in 27 relief appearances before being placed on the 15-day disabled list on June 8 with a strained right flexor muscle. He had surgery a week later.

 

Over four seasons with the Yankees, Robertson owns a 14-6 career record with a 3.03 ERA in 204 relief appearances.

 

The 29-year-old O'Day was 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA in 16 relief appearances for Texas in 2011.

 

Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Nationals have signed pitchers Jordan Zimmermann, Tom Gorzelanny and Tyler Clippard to one-year contracts, avoiding arbitration. Zimmermann, a core piece of the Nationals' future, went 8-11 with a 3.18 ERA in 26 starts last season, his first full year back from Tommy John surgery.

 

Gorzelanny went 4-6 with a 4.03 ERA in 30 games (15 starts) last season, his first with Washington.

 

Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers announced Tuesday that catcher/designated hitter Victor Martinez recently sustained a torn ACL in his left knee. The team said Martinez, who will be re-evaluated by Dr. Richard Stedman, suffered the injury last week during his off-season conditioning. Surgery would likely sideline him for the season.

 

Over 544 career games with Seattle and Cleveland, Choo has hit .291 with 67 home runs and 306 RBI. He also has 64 stolen bases.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
