Baseball Betting Lines

08/07/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Mets shook up their roster on Saturday, releasing infielder Alex Cora, optioning outfielder Jesus Feliciano to the minors and promoting two prospects to the major league club.

Outfielder Fernando Martinez and infielder Ruben Tejada were called up from Triple-A Buffalo.

Martinez, who has been one of the team's top prospects for several years, has yet to play for the Mets in 2010. He appeared in 29 major league games in 2009 and batted just .176 with a homer and eight RBI.

In the minors this season, Martinez, 21, has batted .256 with 12 homers and 33 RBI in 72 games.

Tejada, 20, is beginning his third stint with the Mets this season and is batting .212 with five RBI in 35 games. In 65 games with the Bisons this season, he is batting .280 with one homer and 16 RBI.

Cora made 62 appearances for the Mets in 2010 and batted .207, while Feliciano played in 27 games and posted a .292 batting average with two RBI.

The Mets are currently in south Philly for a three-game series.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
