Baseball Betting Lines
02/06/2012 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Orioles have traded pitcher Jeremy Guthrie to the Colorado Rockies in exchange for pitchers Jason Hammel and Matt Lindstrom.
Guthrie was Baltimore's opening day starter in 2011 and posted a record of 9-17 with a 4.33 earned run average in 34 games, including 32 starts, last year.
The 32-year-old right-hander spent five years with the Orioles after being claimed off waivers from Cleveland before the 2007 season. He has a career mark of 47-65 with a 4.19 ERA in 177 games, all but 16 of which have come with Baltimore.
Before the trade became official, Guthrie leaked word of it via his Twitter account, writing, "Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Baltimore anymore."
Guthrie soon after thanked the Orioles organization for giving him a chance after Cleveland gave up on him following 16 appearances over three seasons.
"I'm grateful for my 5 yrs spent in a special baseball city playing for an organization rich in tradition," he later tweeted.
Hammel will join his third team after pitching for Tampa Bay from 2006-08 and Colorado from 2009-11. The 29-year-old right-hander is 34-45 with a 4.99 ERA in 169 career games, including 115 starts, and was 7-13 with a 4.76 ERA in 32 games, 27 starts, in 2011.
Lindstrom was 2-2 with a 3.00 ERA in 63 appearances last season, his lone year with the Rockies. The 31-year-old righty is 12-15 with 45 saves and a 3.81 ERA in five seasons with Florida, Houston and Colorado.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
