Baseball Betting Lines

08/22/2007 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Braves have placed starting pitcher Chuck James on the 15-day disabled list and replaced him in the rotation with Jo-Jo Reyes for Tuesday night's game against the Reds.

James is suffering from tightness in his back and left shoulder. The left- hander was tagged for six runs on five hits, allowing a season-high four homers, in just 3 2/3 innings in his last outing on Thursday.

For the season, James is 9-9 with a 4.22 ERA in 25 starts.

Reyes, a left-hander, was recalled from Triple-A Richmond. In five starts with the Braves this season he is 0-1 with an 8.72 ERA.

In other roster news, the Braves released pitcher Tanyon Sturtze. The right- hander did not appear in a game with the Braves this season. He was on the 60- day disabled list as he recovered from right shoulder surgery.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
