Baseball Betting Lines

Among his accomplishments in the booth are calling 11 no-hitters, Hank Aaron's record-setting 715th home run in 1974, the Pirates' 1979 World Series title, Nolan Ryan's 4000th strikeout, Barry Bonds' 71st home run in 2001 and the Astros' lone Fall Classic berth in 2005.

 

The 84-year-old, who was named the Ford C. Frick Award winner in 1992, holds the distinction of being elected to four separate Halls of Fame: Texas Baseball (1994), Radio (2000), Texas Radio (2002) and Iowa Baseball Coaches (2011).

 

Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Pirates won their salary arbitration case with first baseman Garrett Jones and avoided a hearing with newly-acquired third baseman Casey McGehee. Jones will earn a salary of $2.25 million for 2012 instead of the $2.5 million he had requested. It's a hefty raise from the $455,000 he was paid in 2011, when he hit .243 with 16 homers and 58 runs batted in.

 

Terms of McGehee's deal were not disclosed, but he had asked for $2.725 million through arbitration and the Pirates had offered $2.35 million.

 

After a pair of promising seasons, including a 23-homer, 104-RBI campaign in 2010, McGehee hit just .223 with 13 home runs and 67 RBI in 155 games last year. He also batted .301 in 2009, his first season with the Brewers.

 

Over five major league seasons with the Yankees and Bucs, the 29-year-old Texan is 14-28 with a 4.77 ERA in 95 games (64 starts).

 

The BoSox extended spring training invites to the following players: pitchers Jesse Carlson, Rich Hill and Justin Thomas, Scott Atchison, Aaron Cook, Brandon Duckworth, Justin Germano, Will Inman, Doug Mathis, Vicente Padilla, Tony Pena Jr., Carlos Silva, Chorye Spoone and Alex Wilson; catchers Daniel Butler and Max St. Pierre; outfielders Alex Hassan, Josh Kroeger, Juan Carlos Linares and Jason Repko; infielders Pedro Ciriaco and Nate Spears.
