Baseball Betting Lines

Rodriguez, who was acquired on July 12 of last season in a trade from the New York Mets, had a mutual option worth $17.5 million dollars for next season declined by the Brewers shortly after the end of the season.

 

Milwaukee still has three players in arbitration: RHP Shaun Marcum and relievers Kameron Loe and Jose Veras.

 

Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Royals have agreed to terms on a contract with outfielder Mitch Maier for the 2012 season, avoiding salary arbitration. Financial terms were not disclosed.

 

Maier is the longest-tenured member on the Royals' 40-man roster and will start his 10th season in the organization. He was selected by the club with the 30th overall pick of the 2003 draft.

 

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia Phillies have avoided arbitration with left-hander Cole Hamels, signing him to a one-year deal worth $15 million plus incentives. Hamels was 14-9 last season and pitched to a career-best 2.79 earned run average. He also finished fifth in National League Cy Young Award voting, with teammates Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee placing second and third, respectively.

 

An NLCS and World Series MVP for the Phillies in 2008, Hamels has spent his entire six-year career in Philadelphia and has posted a 74-54 mark to go along with a 3.39 ERA. He's also the Phils' all-time leader in postseason wins with seven.

 

Valdez will earn $930,000, plus incentives, after batting .249 in 99 games last season. He also hit .370 with runners in scoring position.

 

Originally drafted by the New York Yankees in 2003, Karstens has a 21-36 career record in 119 games (76 starts) for the Yankees and Pirates. He holds an ERA of 4.52 with 264 strikeouts in 501 2/3 innings.

 

Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers have named former infielder Craig Counsell as a special assistant to the general manager. Counsell wrapped up a 16-year big league career in 2011 with the Brewers, for whom he played his final five seasons. He batted .178 in 107 games last year.

 

Counsell was a .255 career hitter in 1,624 games for the Brewers, Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Marlins and Rockies. He won a World Series in 1997 with Florida, scoring the winning run in Game 7 against Cleveland, and was also a key member of Arizona's 2001 World Series title team, earning NLCS MVP honors that postseason.
