Tigers bring up Frazier; designate Larish for assignment
Baseball Betting Lines
07/30/2010 -
Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers have purchased the contract
of outfielder Jeff Frazier from Triple-A Toledo and opened a roster spot for
the slugger by designating infielder Jeff Larish for assignment.
Frazier was hitting .273 with 23 homers and 68 runs batted in 104 games with
the Mud Hens. He leads the International League with 32 doubles, 214 total
bases and 56 extra-base hits.
The 27-year-old native of New Jersey will try to help an offense that has
struggled recently without injured starters Magglio Ordonez, Carlos Guillen
and Brandon Inge. The Tigers scored just eight runs while suffering through a
four-game sweep at Tampa Bay this week.
Larish was recalled last Sunday when Ordonez went on the DL with a broken
ankle and Guillen was lost with a strained right calf. Inge has been out since
July 20 with a broken left hand.
The Tigers made a trade for infield help earlier this week with the
acquisition of Jhonny Peralta from Cleveland, making Larish expendable.
Larish, a career .239 hitter, had appeared in three games since being recalled
and went 2-for-10 with an RBI.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
