Baseball Betting Lines

09/02/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Florida Marlins right-hander Ricky Nolasco will miss the remainder of the season and will have surgery next week to repair torn medial meniscus in his right knee.

Nolasco, who is 14-9 with a 4.51 ERA this season, will be replaced by Andrew Miller when the Marlins play Atlanta on Friday.

The Marlins also announced catcher Brett Hayes has a Grade 1 separation of his left shoulder. He was hurt in a collision at home plate in the 10th inning of Tuesday's game against the Nationals. That's when Washington's Nyjer Morgan plowed into the catcher trying to score.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
