Last Season Pineiro Pound Disable On Royals

Baseball Betting Lines

Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Red Sox and reliever Franklin Morales agreed to terms on a one-year contract Monday. Acquired in a trade with the Rockies last May, he played in a career-high 50 games in 2011 between the two clubs and went 1-2 with a 3.69 earned run average.

 

Howell, 28, returned to play last season after missing 2010 due to shoulder surgery in May of that year.

 

Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Red Sox have reportedly agreed to a one-year, minor league contract with pitcher Vicente Padilla. MLB.com reported Monday that Padilla's contract is worth $1.5 million with performance-based bonuses that could make it as high as $4.5 million.

 

A starter for much of his career, he is 104-90 with a 4.31 earned run average in 330 games, including 237 starts.

 

Over his time in the majors, he has pitched for Arizona, Philadelphia, Texas and the Dodgers.

 

Ludwick, 33, would join his sixth team. The nine-year veteran played his final 38 games for the NL Central-rival Pirates last season after being traded to Pittsburgh from San Diego in July.

 

Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Royals avoided arbitration with Brayan Pena, signing the catcher to a one-year contract Monday. The 30-year-old Pena batted .248 with 11 doubles, three home runs and 24 RBI in 72 games for the Royals last season.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.

Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.

According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).

Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.

''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
    
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.

Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.

''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''

Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
   
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.

”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
   
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
