Rangers place Kinsler on DL

Baseball Betting Lines

07/29/2010 - Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Texas Rangers placed All-Star second baseman Ian Kinsler on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left groin among several roster moves made by the club on Thursday.

The move is retroactive to July 28.

Kinsler has put up good numbers despite opening the season on the DL with a high right ankle sprain. Over 76 games, he is hitting .298 with six homers and 38 runs batted in to go with a .387 on-base percentage. Kinsler will be eligible to come off the DL on August 12.

To take Kinsler's roster spot, the Rangers purchased the contract of first baseman/outfielder Mitch Moreland from Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 24-year-old has hit 12 home runs and knocked in 65 runs while batting .289 with the minor league club this season.

In order to get Moreland on the 40-man roster, Texas transferred right-handed pitcher Mark Lowe from the 15-day to the 60-day DL. Lowe was part of a July 9 deal that brought lefty Cliff Lee to the Rangers from Seattle.

Lowe, who was placed on the DL with lower back inflammation on May 3, is 1-3 with a 3.48 earned run average in 11 relief outings this year, all with the Mariners.

It's less than a month until the NHL hockey betting season opens at MySportsbook.com and preparations are underway for another battle in the race to hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2007.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.

Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.

Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.

Also worth noting are the defending Stanley Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes, a 10-1 bet to repeat. Behind the Canes are the New Jersey Devils, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, and Anaheim Mighty Ducks all sit at 12-1.
