Mariners release P Petit

Baseball Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Seattle Mariners released right-handed pitcher Yusmeiro Petit on Wednesday.

The move comes before Petit ever threw a pitch in a regular-season game for Seattle, as the team claimed him off waivers from Arizona last November.

Petit appeared in 23 games for the Diamondbacks in 2009, posting a record of 3-10 with a 5.82 earned-run average. In 17 starts, he was 3-9 with a 5.72 ERA.

The right-hander, who turns 25 later this month, spent the past three seasons with Arizona after one year in Florida. He owns a career mark of 10-20 with a 5.57 ERA in 71 games, including 36 starts.

Petit was originally signed by the New York Mets as a non-drafted free agent in 2001 and spent his first four pro seasons in the New York organization before being sent to Florida as part of the Carlos Delgado trade following the 2005 season. The Diamondbacks acquired him in 2007 in exchange for pitcher Jorge Julio.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
