Baseball Betting Lines

He batted .263 with 90 homers and 379 runs batted in over 948 career games for the Astros, Dodgers, Pirates, Nationals, Braves and Cubs.

 

Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers and Prince Fielder have put the finishing touches on a nine-year contract. Financial terms were not disclosed, but multiple reports earlier this week indicated the pact for the former Milwaukee Brewers first baseman to be worth $214 million.

 

"Prince Fielder is one of the premier offensive players in the game of baseball and we are extremely excited to add an All-Star-caliber player like him to our lineup," said Tigers president, CEO and general manager Dave Dombrowski. "The addition of Prince is a testament to the organization's continued commitment to fielding a championship club."

 

A three-time All-Star and career .282 hitter, Fielder has missed just one game in the past three seasons.

 

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.

 

The right-handed Lidge had spent the last four seasons with the Phillies and helped the team to a World Series title in 2008. He posted a 1.95 ERA and converted all 48 of his save opportunities during the regular season and playoffs.

 

Lidge has spent 10 seasons in the majors after being selected in the first round of the 1998 draft by Houston. He pitched his first six seasons with the Astros.

 

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.

 

To make room on the 40-man roster, Oakland designated infielder Adrian Cardenas for assignment.

 

The 31-year-old has played in 757 game over eight major league seasons with the Tigers, Dodgers, Reds, Marlins and Giants. He is a career .261 hitter with 100 homers and 371 RBI.

 

To make room for Ross on the 40-man roster, the Red Sox designated pitcher Scott Atchison for assignment.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
