Baseball Betting Lines
09/03/2010 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Texas Rangers made a series of roster moves on Friday, including activating pitcher Dustin Nippert from the 15-day disabled list.
Nippert landed on the DL on July 20, one day after he was struck in the head by a line drive by Detroit's Austin Jackson.
The right-hander was 3-4 with a 5.36 earned run average in 28 games (two starts) for the Rangers prior to the scary incident.
Texas also recalled catcher Taylor Teagarden and pitcher Omar Beltre and purchased the contract of pitcher Clay Rapada from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Beltre was then placed on the 60-day DL with a right ankle sprain.
Additionally, the Rangers announced outfielder Brandon Boggs cleared waivers and was assigned to Oklahoma City.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
