Rangers activate OF Cruz from DL

Baseball Betting Lines

08/30/2010 - Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Texas Rangers activated outfielder Nelson Cruz from the 15-day disabled list among several roster moves on Monday.

The 30-year-old has landed on the DL three times this season -- all with hamstring injuries. His latest setback came on August 14 when he strained the right hamstring running the bases against Boston and placed on the DL the next day.

Despite the injuries, Cruz has hit 16 homers and knocked in 64 runs while hitting .320 over 77 games in 2010.

To open a roster spot, the club optioned outfielder Brandon Boggs to Triple-A Oklahoma City. He was hitless in seven at-bats with a walk in four contests since being promoted on August 15.

In other team news, the Rangers recalled outfielder Craig Gentry from Oklahoma City and placed him on the 15-day DL with a fractured right wrist suffered on August 13 while playing for the Triple-A affiliate. In 20 games over two stints with the major league club this season, Gentry is batting .212 with three RBI.

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.
