Baseball Betting Lines

04/27/2010 - St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The St. Louis Cardinals have activated catcher Jason LaRue from the 15-day disabled list and optioned catcher Bryan Anderson to Triple-A Memphis.

LaRue has been sidelined with a strained right hamstring suffered while running the bases in an April 11 game at Milwaukee. The veteran back stop is hitless in four at-bats this season.

Anderson had two hits in seven at-bats in his first appearance in the big leagues.

The Cardinals also signed veteran infielder Aaron Miles to a minor-league deal and assigned him to extended spring training in Jupiter, FL. Miles, who was a member of the Redbirds team that won the World Series in 2006, was one of the last cuts by the Cincinnati Reds in spring training this year.

Miles is a .282 career hitter with 16 home runs and 175 runs batted in over seven seasons with the Chicago White Sox, Colorado Rockies, Cardinals and Chicago Cubs.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
