Baseball Betting Lines

09/09/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Toronto Blue Jays claimed pitcher Taylor Buchholz off waivers from the Colorado Rockies on Thursday.

Buchholz was designated for assignment on Tuesday after going 1-0 with a 4.50 earned run average over seven relief appearances for Colorado this season.

The 28-year-old missed the 2009 season after elbow ligament replacement surgery.

Over four years in the majors, one with Houston and three with Colorado, he is 19-21 with a 4.42 ERA over 133 games, including 27 starts.

Toronto also moved pitcher Jesse Litsch to the 60-day disabled list. He had surgery in August to repair a labral tear in his right hip and will miss the rest of the season. Pitcher Shawn Hill was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas.

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.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
