Cano out of Home Run Derby

Baseball Betting Lines

07/07/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano has pulled out of the Home Run Derby at next week's All-Star festivities in Anaheim because of a back injury, according to general manager Brian Cashman.

Cano, who has hit 16 home runs this season, was initially confirmed by Major League Baseball as one of the first six participants for the event to be held on Monday, the day before the 81st All-Star Game at Angel Stadium.

According to the New York Daily News, Cano has been receiving treatment for a couple of days on his back, though the injury had not been previously reported.

Both New York manager Joe Girardi and hitting coach Kevin Long had expressed their reluctance over the 27-year-old's participation in the event.

Cano is hitting .337, good for fourth best in the American League, and has knocked in 55 runs through 83 games for the Yankees, who wrap up a three-game set in Oakland on Wednesday.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
