Boston's Ellsbury leaves game

Baseball Betting Lines

06/05/2008 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boston Red Sox outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury left Wednesday's contest against the Tampa Bay Rays in the fourth inning with an injury to his right wrist.

After switching to center field following teammate Coco Crisp's ejection for inciting a bench-clearing brawl earlier in the game, Ellsbury made a terrific diving grab on an Evan Longoria line drive to lead off the fourth.

As he came down with the ball, however, his right wrist bent awkwardly, and after several minutes of the team trainer evaluating his wrist, he left the game in favor of Kevin Youkilis.

X-Rays taken after the incident were negative, showing a strained right wrist with further evaluations on Friday.

J.D. Drew moved to center, while Youkilis took Drew's place in right.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
