Games Helps Galarraga Into Neshek

He played 116 games for Seattle's Triple-A Tacoma affiliate last year, batting .226 with 14 home runs and 77 RBI.

 

Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers announced Monday that Victor Martinez underwent left knee surgery last Friday. Martinez suffered a torn ACL during his offseason conditioning and last week had a number of initial procedures. He had microfracture surgery, as well as operations to repair both the medial and lateral meniscus in the knee.

 

The Tigers expect Martinez to be sidelined for the entire 2012 season.

 

In response, the Tigers moved quickly to add another power bat and signed free agent first baseman Prince Fielder.

 

Although he often struggled to live up to high expectations, Burrell was a member of the 2008 Phillies team that won the World Series and led the championship parade on a horse-drawn carriage.

 

Burrell played in 92 games for San Francisco in 2011, hitting .230 with seven homers and 21 RBI.

 

Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ron Washington, the only manager in franchise history to win a postseason series, has signed a two-year contract extension with the Texas Rangers. The deal, announced Monday, runs through the 2014 season. Financial terms were not disclosed.

 

Washington, 59, led the Rangers to consecutive World Series appearances in the last two seasons and has been their manager for 18 of the 19 all-time playoff wins in team history.

 

Washington's original two-year contract through the 2008 season included club options for 2009 and 2010, which were picked up. On November 4, 2010, he agreed to a two-year extension through the 2012 season.

 

Galarraga, 30, is most well known for pitching a perfect game with the Detroit Tigers on June 2, 2010 against the Cleveland Indians -- only it wasn't a perfect game.

 

Donald appeared to be out by a step at first but first base umpire Jim Joyce called Donald safe, spoiling what would have been a perfect game.

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.
