A's place Jackson back on DL, recall Larish

Baseball Betting Lines

08/20/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics have placed outfielder Conor Jackson on the 15-day disabled list with a lower abdominal strain.

The 28-year-old outfielder was sidelined from July 1 through Sunday with a strained right hamstring and just rejoined the team this week.

Jackson played in four games against Toronto and Tampa Bay and went a combined 1-for-12 with a solo home run.

In 60 games this season with Oakland and Arizona, Jackson is hitting .236 with a pair of long balls and 16 runs batted in.

The former Cal Golden Bear also spent time on the DL with Arizona earlier this season, from April 19 through May 6, with the same strained right hamstring.

To fill the roster spot, Oakland recalled first baseman Jeff Larish from Triple-A Sacramento. Larish was claimed by the A's off waivers from Detroit on August 3 and went hitless in three at-bats in his first game with Oakland six days later. He was optioned to Sacramento on Monday to make room for Jackson's return.

The 27-year-old is 2-for-13 in four games this year for the Tigers and A's.

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.
