Tennis Betting Lines

06/15/2010 - Eastbourne, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Nicolas Almagro of Spain posted a first-round win, while second-seeded Spaniard Feliciano Lopez came up a loser Tuesday at the grass-court Aegon International tennis event, a final Wimbledon tuneup.

Almagro snuck past Poland's Lukasz Kubot 7-5, 7-6 (7-3). while Lopez was upended by British wild card James Ward 6-3, 5-4, as the Spaniard retired with a shoulder injury at Devonshire Park. Lopez, who popped 12 aces in a losing effort, stunned his world No. 1 compatriot Rafael Nadal in a match last week on the grass at London's Queen's Club.

The world No. 18 Almagro will meet Uzbekistan's Denis Istomin here on Wednesday.

In some second-round action on Day 3, fifth-seeded Spaniard Guillermo Garcia- Lopez leveled Italian Fabio Fognini 6-2, 6-2 and Ukrainian Illya Marchenko knocked out sixth-seeded Argentine Horacio Zeballos 7-6 (7-2), 6-3.

In other first-round play on Tuesday, Taipei's Yen-Hsun Lu handled Slovakian Karol Beck 6-4, 6-4 and 34-year-old German Rainer Schuettler whipped Kazakhstan's Andrey Golubev 6-2, 6-3.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
