Baseball Betting Lines

01/24/2012 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Orioles have signed infielder Wilson Betemit to a two-year contract.

Financial terms were not disclosed, but the deal includes a vesting option for 2014.

Betemit split the 2011 season with Kansas City and Detroit, and batted a combined .285 with eight homers and 46 runs batted in over 97 games. The 30- year-old switch-hitter batted .303 in 263 plate appearances from the left side.

In nine seasons with the Braves, Dodgers, Yankees, White Sox, Royals and Tigers, the Dominican native has a career average of .269 with 63 homers and 243 runs batted in.

The Orioles cleared room on the 40-man roster by designating pitcher Rick Vandenhurk for assignment. The 26-year-old right-hander had an earned run average of 8.00 in four games for the Orioles last season and was 9-13 with a 4.43 ERA in 26 starts at Triple-A Norfolk.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
