Season Beats Tigers Into Rbi

Baseball Betting Lines

New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Daryle Ward, who played 11 seasons for six teams but has been out of Major League Baseball since 2008, was suspended 50 games for testing positive for an amphetamine. Ward, currently a free-agent minor league first baseman, will serve his suspension upon signing with a major league organization, MLB said Wednesday.

 

Additionally, MLB announced free agent minor league left-handed pitcher Dustin Richardson was suspended 50 games for testing positive for several substances. He will also serve his ban once he is signed somewhere.

 

The Tigers are coming off an American League Central title from 2011, their first division crown in 24 years, and lured one of the biggest available free agents to Detroit. He is familiar with the city, as his father, Cecil, played for the Tigers from 1990-96.

 

In 998 big league games, all with the Brewers, the 27-year-old Fielder has clubbed 230 homers and driven in 656 runs. He finished third in the voting for the National League Most Valuable Player last year after batting .299 with 38 homers and 120 RBI.

 

The Tigers were trying to add another quality bat after Victor Martinez went down with a torn knee ligament that could cost him the entire 2012 season. However, a first baseman was not considered a need with Miguel Cabrera already there. The AL's batting champion from a year ago will reportedly make the switch to third base, a position he played with the Marlins, to accommodate the new acquisition.

 

However, the following season, Lidge blew 11 saves while recording an 0-8 record and 7.21 ERA. He rebounded in 2010, but has appeared in only 75 games in the last two seasons because of elbow and shoulder injuries.

 

The two-time All-Star has converted 223-of-266 save opportunities, and has a career ERA of 3.44 in 592 appearances (one start). Lidge has struck out 789 in 594 innings, and owns a record of 26-31.

 

Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Athletics have agreed to terms on a one- year contract with outfielder Jonny Gomes. Gomes, 31, split last season between Cincinnati and Washington, and hit .209 with 14 homers and 43 RBI in 120 games. The Reds traded him to the Nationals in late July.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
