Mariners sign P Wright among roster moves

Baseball Betting Lines

07/15/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Seattle Mariners signed free agent pitcher Jamey Wright on Thursday, one of three roster moves made by the club.

Pitcher Chris Seddon also had his contract selected from Triple-A Tacoma, while pitchers Chad Cordero and Sean White were optioned to the same club. Cordero, however, declined his demotion and becomes a free agent.

Wright recently opted out of his contract with Oakland, which never called up the right-hander after he pitched to a 9.00 earned-run average in 10 appearances with Triple-A Sacramento. The Athletics picked up the 35-year-old after the Indians designated him for assignment in June.

In 438 career games -- 246 starts -- Wright has compiled an 83-117 record with a 5.03 ERA, making stops in seven big-league cities.

Seddon was named a Pacific Coast League All-Star this season after going 10-4 with a 3.39 ERA in 18 games -- 15 starts -- with Tacoma.

Cordero, who owns 128 career saves, appeared in nine games for the Mariners in 2010, logging an 0-1 record with a 6.52 ERA.

White has thrown to a 6.86 ERA in 25 relief appearances with the Mariners this year.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
