Orioles invite P Galarraga, others to spring training

Baseball Betting Lines

01/30/2012 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Orioles signed and invited 14 non-roster players to spring training. Among those with previous major league experience are pitchers Armando Galarraga and Pat Neshek and catcher Ronny Paulino.

Galarraga went 3-4 with a 5.91 earned run average, 28 strikeouts and 22 walks in eight starts last season with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He also spent time with the Diamondbacks' Triple-A club in Reno.

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.

On the final play of that game, Indians' shortstop Jason Donald slapped a ground ball to first base. Miguel Cabrera got off the bag, retrieved the ball and flipped it to Galarraga covering first.

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.

Joyce admitted after he saw the play on replay that he blew the call.

In 95 career games -- 86 starts -- Galarraga has a 26-30 mark with a 4.69 ERA, 329 strikeouts and 208 walks with Texas, Detroit and the Diamondbacks.

Neshek, 31, went 1-1 with a 4.01 ERA, 20 strikeouts and 22 walks in 25 relief appearances for the San Diego Padres last season.

Neshek, a five-year MLB veteran, boasts a 12-7 record with a 3.21 ERA, 171 strikeouts and 67 walks.

Paulino played in 78 games in 2011 with the New York Mets, posting a .268 average with two home runs and 19 runs batted in.

Over 553 games with Pittsburgh, Florida and the Mets, Paulino is a career .273 hitter with 33 home runs and 211 RBI.

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.
