Baseball Betting Lines

06/07/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Colby Rasmus was named the National League Player of the Week for the period ending June 6.

Rasmus hit .500 (11-22) with three home runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored during the week. He also led the major leagues with a 1.000 slugging percentage and a .577 on-base percentage, which tied for second in the NL.

The 24-year-old was instrumental in helping the Cards take two of three games against Milwaukee. Rasmus went 2-for-3 with a homer and a pair of RBI in the club's 8-0 victory on Friday. Then the next day he knocked in the winning run with a single in the 11th inning that finished off a 3-for-4 game with three RBI in a 5-4 win.

This Rasmus' first-ever weekly award.

Other nominees this past week included Cardinals' Adam Wainwright and Albert Pujols, Florida's Chris Coghlan and Ronny Paulino, Atlanta's Troy Glaus and Tommy Hanson, Houston's Lance Berkman and Carlos Lee, San Diego's Adrian Gonzalez, Chase Headley and Nick Hundley, New York Mets' David Wright, Washington's Ryan Zimmerman and Colorado ace Ubaldo Jimenez.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
