Brewers part ways with veteran P Suppan

Baseball Betting Lines

06/07/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers released veteran right- handed pitcher Jeff Suppan on Monday.

The 35-year-old came to Milwaukee via free agency in December 2006 after spending the previous three seasons with St. Louis.

Suppan struggled since signing his four-year, $42 million contract with the Brewers, however, compiling a 29-36 record with a 5.08 earned run average in 110 games (97 starts). He was particularly ineffective this season, going 0-2 with a 7.84 ERA in 15 games (two starts).

Milwaukee still owes Suppan the rest of his $12.5 million salary this year as well as a $2 million buyout for his club option in 2011.

Over 16 major league seasons, Suppan is 135-137 with a 4.72 ERA in 427 games (398 starts) with Kansas City, Boston, Pittsburgh, Arizona, St. Louis and Milwaukee. He also helped the Cardinals win the World Series in 2006, when they beat Detroit in five games.

In a related move, the club will purchase the contract of right-hander Chris Smith from Triple-A Nashville. Smith appeared in 35 games for the Brewers in 2009 and pitched to a 4.11 ERA. He is 2-1 with a 1.71 ERA and 16 saves this season at Nashville.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
