Baseball Betting Lines

Rodriguez, who was acquired on July 12 of last season in a trade from the New York Mets, had a mutual option worth $17.5 million dollars for next season declined by the Brewers shortly after the end of the season.

 

Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Toronto Blue Jays have signed pitcher Carlos Villanueva to a one-year contract worth $2.27 million, avoiding arbitration. In 33 games last season, his first with Toronto, Villanueva held a record of 6-4 with an earned run average of 4.04. He started 13 of those games, a career high for the right-hander.

 

Villanueva spent his first five seasons with Milwaukee and owns a career mark of 26-28 in 263 appearances, 40 of which have been starts. His career ERA sits at 4.28 and he has added six saves in 17 opportunities out of the bullpen.

 

Maier is the longest-tenured member on the Royals' 40-man roster and will start his 10th season in the organization. He was selected by the club with the 30th overall pick of the 2003 draft.

 

His 14 wins gave him at least 10 wins in five straight seasons, making him the first Phillies pitcher to do so since Hall of Famer Steve Carlton's 13-year streak from 1972-84.

 

Hamels, who earned $9.5 million last season, had signed a multi-year deal with the Phils in 2009, but left his last arbitration year open. He can become an unrestricted free agent at season's end.

 

The Phillies also avoided arbitration with infielder Wilson Valdez on Tuesday, making outfielder Hunter Pence the team's lone remaining player eligible.

 

Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to a one-year deal with pitcher Jeff Karstens, thus avoiding arbitration. Karstens finished 2011 with a 9-9 record and a 3.38 earned run average, the best of his career, in 30 games -- 26 starts-- for the Pirates.

 

"I am excited to begin a new challenge in baseball," said Counsell in a statement. "I look forward to contributing in any way I can to the success of an organization that has been a special part my life for many years."

 

"We are pleased to have Craig join our organization in a very significant role," said Brewers general manager Doug Melvin. "His knowledge of how to play the game, along with his work ethic and passion to see the Brewers succeed, will now be utilized and welcomed by our front office."

 

Flushing, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Mets signed pitcher Mike Pelfrey to a one-year contract Tuesday, avoiding arbitration with the 28-year-old hurler. Although financial terms were not released, the deal is believed to be worth $5.675 million.
