A-Rod lands on DL with calf injury

Baseball Betting Lines

08/21/2010 - Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Yankees placed third baseman Alex Rodriguez on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left calf after Saturday's 9-5 win over Seattle.

Rodriguez returned to the lineup as the designated hitter for Friday's series opener after a three-game absence, only to leave after just one at-bat with tightness in the calf area.

Rodriguez has swatted 21 home runs and knocked in 97 runs this year while holding a .265 average through 112 games.

Eduardo Nunez made the first start of his major league career Saturday at third base in Rodriguez's absence, recording his first hit with an RBI single in a three-run seventh inning.

Right-hander Ivan Nova will be called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to replace Rodriguez on the roster. Nova will make his first career start on Monday in Toronto.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
