Oklahoma City Helps Carrasco Into Rookie

Baseball Betting Lines

Franklin's earned run average has skyrocketed to 8.46 this season as opposed to a 3.46 ERA and a 6-2 record last season.

 

Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Cubs activated infielder Darwin Barney from the 15-day disabled list and granted pitcher Doug Davis his unconditional release Wednesday. Barney was placed on the disabled list with a left knee sprain he suffered June 13 against Milwaukee.

 

Davis had his contract selected by Chicago on May 14 and went 1-7 with a 6.50 ERA in nine starts this season.

 

To fill the roster spot, Houston has recalled Brian Bogusevic from Triple-A Oklahoma City. In 25 games for the Astros this season, Bogusevic has a .222 average with three runs scored and a stolen base.

 

The Astros also recalled pitcher David Carpenter from Oklahoma City and claimed outfielder Luis Durango off waivers.

 

To make room for Carpenter and Durango, catcher Brian Esposito has been optioned to Oklahoma City and pitcher Alberto Arias has been transferred from the 15-day to the 60-day disabled list.

 

Lowe (4-6) gave up one run, four hits and three walks to notch his first win since beating Philadelphia on May 6. He had gone 0-3 with a 5.29 ERA in his previous nine starts.

 

Freddie Freeman drove in two runs as part of a three-hit performance for the Braves, who have won eight of their last 10 games.

 

Atlanta, which entered play boasting a 33-8 record when opening the scoring this season, jumped out to a 4-0 lead on Wednesday.

 

The Braves put up a three-spot in the next inning. Nate McLouth walked to begin the fifth. A fly out moved McLouth to third and he scored on the second wild pitch uncorked by Hernandez in the frame.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
