Baseball Betting Lines

Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Pirates have avoided arbitration with Evan Meek, signing the reliever to a one-year contract. Meek endured a forgettable 2011 campaign as injuries limited him to only 24 games.

 

For his career, Meek has compiled a 7-7 record with four saves and a 3.08 ERA in 144 games, all with the Pirates.

 

Pittsburgh also signed left-hander Doug Slaten to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. The soon-to-be 32-year-old has posted a 3.60 ERA in 206 career trips out of the bullpen with Arizona and Washington.

 

In six seasons with Minnesota, Liriano is 47-42 with 679 strikeouts, 269 walks and a 4.19 ERA.

 

Perkins, a St. Paul native, posted a 4-4 record with a 2.48 ERA, 65 strikeouts and 21 walks for his hometown team last season. Perkins has spent his entire five-year major league career with the Twins and has a 23-16 record in 145 games -- 44 starts -- with 224 strikeouts and 100 walks.

 

In 426 career games -- all with the Giants -- Schierholtz has a .273 average with 18 homers and 102 RBI.

 

San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Diego Padres agreed to one-year contracts with nine arbitration eligible players on Tuesday, including offseason acquisitions Edinson Volquez and Carlos Quentin. Catcher Nick Hundley and infielder Chase Headley also agreed to contracts for the 2012 season, along with pitchers Luke Gregerson, Tim Stauffer and Joe Thatcher, outfielder Will Venable and catcher John Baker.

 

Quentin, a two-time All-Star and former Silver Slugger Award winner, was acquired from the White Sox in exchange for pitchers Simon Castro and Pedro Hernandez. The 29-year-old catcher has belted at least 21 home runs in each of the last four seasons. In 2011, he batted .254 with 24 home runs, a career- high 31 doubles and 77 RBI in 118 games.

 

Headley, 27, posted a career-best .289 average in 113 games for the Padres last season. The switch-hitter added 44 RBI and 43 runs scored and hit .352 against lefties -- the second-highest mark among qualifying NL players.

 

Stauffer, also a righty, went 9-12 with a 3.73 ERA in a career-high 31 starts with San Diego in 2011. The 29-year-old was the Padres' opening day starter last season.
