Dodgers dismiss Murray; Mueller serves in interim

Baseball Betting Lines

06/14/2007 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Thursday they have dismissed hitting coach Eddie Murray and named Bill Mueller interim hitting coach.

"Change is never easy but sometimes it is necessary and we feel that this is the best thing right now to help the team win," said Dodgers manager Grady Little. "Our offense hasn't lived up to our expectations and no one person is responsible for the results we've had this season. I have the utmost respect for Eddie Murray as a person and as a professional and I wish him nothing but the best."

Mueller played in just 32 games for the Dodgers in 2006 due to a knee injury and hit .252. He ended his 11-year playing career with a.291 batting average with 85 homers and 493 RBI, which includes stints with San Francisco, the Chicago Cubs and Boston Red Sox. Upon his retirement, Mueller was named special assistant to general manager Ned Colletti this offseason.

"Bill Mueller will serve as a very solid bridge as we look for our next hitting coach," Colletti said. "He already has a great reputation within the clubhouse and he has a very deep knowledge of our team and the rest of the league."

Mueller's best season came in 2003 with the Red Sox when he captured the AL batting title and Silver Slugger Award at third base while setting career highs in average (.326), hits (171), homers (19) and RBIs (85).

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.
