Soccer Betting Lines

01/19/2010 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Chivas USA midfielder Paulo Nagamura has signed with Tigres UNAL of the Mexican First Division, the MLS club announced Tuesday.

Nagamura played 73 games for Chivas over the last three seasons, and spent his last five years playing in MLS. Nagamura, a Brazilian, previously played with the Los Angeles Galaxy and Toronto FC.

Nagamura had eight goals and seven assists during his career with Chivas, but his contract expired at the end of the last season and the club was unable to re-sign him.

"Paulo is a strong, dedicated player who has given this club a lot in the past three seasons," said Chivas USA Vice President of Soccer Operations Stephen Hamilton. "While we're disappointed that we weren't able to re-sign him, we're eager to continue building the team for the 2010 season."

Chivas USA opens preseason camp on Jan. 26.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.

Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.

El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.

MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. 

Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.

New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.

Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
