Cubs place Silva on DL, recall two
Baseball Betting Lines
08/02/2010 -
Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Cubs placed right-handed pitcher
Carlos Silva on the 15-day disabled list on Monday, among three roster moves.
Silva is sidelined as he undergoes a cardiac evaluation after he was forced to
leave Sunday's 8-7 loss to Colorado after one-third of an inning due to an
irregular heart rate.
Silva received the loss despite facing just four batters, allowing two hits
and two runs. He complained of difficulty breathing and was removed, and
paramedics diagnosed him with the abnormal heart rate.
To fill out the roster, the club recalled right-handers Casey Coleman and
Thomas Diamond from Triple-A Iowa.
The 23-year-old Coleman had a 10-7 record to go with a 4.07 earned run average
in 20 starts with Iowa this year. He is the third generation of right-handed
pitchers in the family to reach the majors, following grandfather Joe, who
played from 1942-55 and earned All-Star honors in 1948 and father Joe, who
pitched from 1965-79 and was named to the All-Star team in 1972 and 1976.
Diamond, 27, was 5-4 with a 3.16 with the Triple-A club prior to his recall.
Over 60 minor league appearances -- 57 starts -- he has compiled a 28-16 mark
while pitching to a 3.73 ERA.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
