Indians activate Wood off DL

Baseball Betting Lines

07/31/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Indians on Saturday activated pitcher Kerry Wood from the 15-day disabled list.

Wood last pitched on July 11 before landing on the DL with a blister on his right index finger. It was the second disabled list stint in 2010 for Wood, who began the season on the DL with a back strain.

The veteran closer takes the roster spot vacated Friday, when the Indians traded outfielder Austin Kearns to the New York Yankees.

In 23 appearances this season (20 innings), Wood has posted a 6.30 earned run average and 1-4 record, while converting eight of his 11 save opportunities. The right-hander has not allowed a run in 15 of his appearances.

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.
