Nationals decide to put Strasburg on DL
Baseball Betting Lines
07/29/2010 -
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Nationals have decided to
put rookie phenom Stephen Strasburg on the 15-day disabled list with stiffness
in his shoulder.
Strasburg is expected to rest for the next 3-to-4 days and have the shoulder
re-evaluated. However, the Washington Post reported that manager Jim
Rigglemann said Strasburg would be shut down for 10 days, citing a radio
interview given Thursday morning.
The 22-year-old was scratched from his scheduled outing on Tuesday night
versus Atlanta after having trouble getting loose in the bullpen. He was
diagnosed with inflammation in the shoulder and will miss at least his next
start, which was scheduled for Sunday against the Philadelphia Phillies
Strasburg was off to an electric start for the Nationals, posting a 2.32
earned run average and 5-2 record. In 54 1/3 innings, he has 75 strikeouts
compared with only 15 walks. He has pitched 109 2/3 innings overall this
season after having thrown 109 total innings for San Diego State all of 2009.
"I was feeling tight a little bit, wanted to get out there and see if it
would loosen up," Strasburg said Wednesday about missing his start. "It's
just one of those days where it was tighter than normal. I'm just at a point
right now in the season now where I'm going into unchartered territory. I
have to be smart right now and look at the big picture."
Strasburg also said his condition has improved since Tuesday.
"I feel a lot better. My range of motion, after going through some stretching
and everything is starting to come back to me," Strasburg said. "I made some
big strides today. I'm not going jump the gun, just going to take it day-by-
day."
Washington's scheduled starter for Thursday, Scott Olsen, is expected to
replace Strasburg on the roster. The lefty had been on the 15-day disabled
list with left shoulder tightness.

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Bet on NFL Football
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
