Burnett Beats Sox Into Red

Baseball Betting Lines

Following the All-Star break, he batted .383 and became Texas' regular catcher. He batted .328 with three homers and 15 RBI over 17 postseason games, which saw the team fall to the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games in the World Series.

 

He began his career in 2006 with the Angels and played five seasons there. In the 2011 offseason, he was traded to Toronto on January 21, then four days later he was sent Texas in another trade.

 

It's truly Linsanity.

 

Lin jerseys are flying off the shelves as quickly as they are put on. Time Warner Cable and MSG Networks, who have been feuding since the start of the NBA season, now have the added pressure of coming to some sort of agreement because New Yorkers want their Lin, who has already donned the cover of the New York Times three times.

 

At least not anymore.

 

Actually, those three are 10 times more likely to do it than Lin. That's how big a long shot this was.

 

Thankfully, pitchers and catchers report in less than a week and we can get back to talking about-on-the-field issues.

 

In some actual baseball news, the New York Yankees may have found themselves a sucker, er, a potential suitor, for right-hander A.J. Burnett. Apparently the Yanks are deep into talks with the Pittsburgh Pirates to send the underachieving pitcher to the Steel City for a ton of cash and a few minor leaguers.

 

In a bizarre twist, the Yanks want to deal Burnett and are willing to eat a good portion of the $33 million owed to him to free up a little more dough to go and add a couple of bats.
