Baseball Betting Lines

11/16/2009 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Randy Johnson was among three MLB players to file for free agency on Monday.

Joining him were Cincinnati Reds pitcher Kip Wells and Chicago Cubs reliever John Grabow.

Johnson, 46, became the 24th pitcher in major league history to amass 300 career wins this past season. The intimidating left-hander started in 17 of his 22 appearances with the Giants, going 8-6 with a 4.88 earned run average. He missed a significant time with a tear in his rotator cuff.

The veteran of 22 major-league seasons ranks second on the all-time strikeout list (4,875) and has a career mark of 303-166 with a 3.29 ERA while playing for the Expos, Mariners, Astros, Diamondbacks, Yankees and Giants.

Wells went 2-5 last year with a 5.33 ERA in a combined 33 appearances -- seven starts -- for Cincinnati and Washington.

Grabow went 3-0 with a 3.36 ERA in 75 bullpen appearances while splitting time in Pittsburgh and Chicago in 2009.

Eligible players have three more days to file for free agency.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
