Baseball Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics reinstated reliever Michael Wuertz from the 15-day disabled list Monday.

He had been on the DL since the start of the season with tendinitis in his right shoulder. He had six rehab assignments between Triple-A Sacramento and Single-A Stockton and over 7 2/3 innings did not give up a run.

Last season, his first with Oakland and sixth in the majors, he appeared in 74 games and went 6-1 with a 2.63 earned run average. His 102 strikeouts led all relievers in the AL and was second in the majors.

To open the roster spot for Wuertz, the team optioned lefty Brad Kilby to Sacramento. He appeared in five games out of the bullpen and gave up just two runs over 8 1/3 innings.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
