Myers opposes red-hot Hudson in the desert
Baseball Betting Lines
09/03/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trade deadline pick-up Daniel Hudson can continue a
sterling National League debut tonight when the Arizona Diamondbacks host the
Houston Astros in the opener of a three-game series at Chase Field.
A 23-year-old from Lynchburg, Va., Hudson was acquired in a late July deal
that sent veteran pitcher Edwin Jackson to the Chicago White Sox. He's since
made six starts for Arizona, winning four times and allowing three runs or
less in each outing.
Hudson was on the mound for seven innings in his last outing on Aug. 28, when
he allowed four hits and two runs in the Diamondbacks' 11-3 win at San
Francisco. The Old Dominion University product has pitched at least seven in
each NL outing.
Overall with Arizona, Hudson has allowed just 30 hits and nine runs in 43 2/3
innings with 42 strikeouts. In three starts with Chicago before the trade,
he'd given up 17 hits and 11 runs in just 15 2/3 innings.
Hudson has never faced Houston.
For the Astros, super-consistent righty Brett Myers aims for a 28th straight
start in which he's pitched at least six innings. In his first year with
Houston, Myers has been a symbol of durability while notching 145 strikeouts
and allowing just 174 hits in 185 innings.
He's on pace to surpass 200 innings for the second time in his career and
first since 2005, when he logged 215 1/3 innings while going 13-8 with the
Philadelphia Phillies.
The former first-round draft pick (12th overall, 1999) won double-digit games
five times with the Phillies and reached that mark for Houston in his last
start when he allowed six hits in seven scoreless innings of a 4-1 win over
the New York Mets.
Myers, who is 4-7 on the road this year, got a no-decision against the
Diamondbacks in Houston on May 5, when he was touched for six hits and two
runs in seven innings of the Astros' 4-2 victory.
Lifetime against Arizona, he is 2-2 with a save in seven games with a 3.92
earned run average.
On Wednesday in Houston, Hunter Pence hit a three-run homer as part of a four-
run fifth inning, as the Astros completed a three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals with a 5-2 win at Minute Maid Park.
Michael Bourn added a single, RBI and run scored for Houston, which has won
nine of its last 11. Carlos Lee chipped in with a sacrifice fly.
Nelson Figueroa (4-2) took the win after throwing five innings. The veteran
yielded two runs on six hits, walked three and struck out one. Brandon Lyon
worked a perfect ninth inning to record his 11th save of the season.
In Arizona, Brandon Allen belted his first career grand slam in the bottom of
the seventh inning, and the Diamondbacks beat San Diego, 5-2, to complete a
three-game sweep.
It was quite a 2010 debut for Allen, who was promoted from Triple-A Reno
earlier Wednesday, the first day major league rosters could be expanded.
Barry Enright (6-2) gave up two runs and nine hits over seven innings for
Arizona, which has won six of its last seven games. The rookie right-hander
has yet to allow more than three runs in any of his 12 starts.
Arizona is 3-1 against the Astros this season.

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
