10/30/2008 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Nationals outrighted pitchers Chad Cordero and Ryan Wagner, and infielder Pete Orr to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday and announced that all three declined their assignments and opted to become free agents.

Cordero appeared in just six games this season and had a 2.08 earned run average. In six seasons, all with the Montreal/Washington franchise, he is 20-14 with a 2.78 ERA in 305 games.

Wagner did not pitch at all in 2007 due to a shoulder injury. Over five seasons in the majors, he is 11-9 in 148 appearances with a 4.79 ERA with Cincinnati and Washington.

Orr made 49 appearances this season and hit .253 with seven RBI. The 29-year- old has played in four seasons in the majors, three with Atlanta and last season with Washington, and is a career .261 hitter with two home runs and seven RBI.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
