Blue Jays bash Nationals

Baseball Betting Lines

06/16/2007 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Troy Glaus homered and finished with three RBI to guide the Toronto Blue Jays past the Washington Nationals, 7-2, in the opener of a three-game interleague set at Rogers Centre.

Adam Lind added a two-run shot while ace Roy Halladay put together another quality outing for the Blue Jays, who have won two in a row. Halladay (7-2) allowed two runs on seven hits over 7 1/3 frames while striking out six. He is 3-0 in four starts since returning from a three-week stint on the disabled list due to appendicitis.

Mike Bacsik (1-4) took the loss after giving up three runs in 4 1/3 innings for Washington, which had a three-game winning streak snapped. Ryan Langerhans' two-run homer accounted for his team's offense.

Toronto put up a three-spot in the fourth to jump in front. Curtis Thigpen led the bottom of the inning off with a bunt single, and was driven in a batter later when Lind crushed a one-out homer into the right-field seats.

Alex Rios and Vernon Wells later came through with consecutive two-out singles before Glaus doubled to left to make it 3-0.

Two more runs in the sixth upped the lead to 5-0.

Glaus hit a leadoff homer -- his 11th long ball of the year -- to kickstart the inning, and Frank Thomas followed with a walk. Winston Abreu struck the next two batters out, but then yielded a double to Gregg Zaun that brought Thomas home.

John McDonald scored on an Abreu wild pitch in the seventh to extend the lead to 6-0.

The Nationals finally got on the board in the eighth courtesy of Langerhans' two-run homer to center.

That was it for Washington, though, and Zaun added a sacrifice fly in the eighth for the Blue Jays to cap the scoring.

Game Notes

Home plate umpire CB Bucknor left in the fifth inning because of an illness...The Nationals are 5-2 on their current nine-game road swing...Since the Expos relocated from Montreal to Washington following the 2004 campaign, the Nationals have dropped six of seven games played in Toronto... Bacsik has a four-start losing streak.

Football Betting Sportsbook Accepts Credit Cards

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.

As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.

Bet 2010 Super Bowl Odds

The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.

Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).

But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.

Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.

Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:

Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1

Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2

New York Giants - 9 - 2

Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).

Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.

So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.

And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.

They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.

Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.

But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.

Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.

Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.

Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.

Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?

Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.

In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.

Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.

Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.

The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.

The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
