Baseball Betting Lines

09/10/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers announced on Friday that infielder Carlos Guillen will undergo surgery on his left knee.

In a statement, the club said Guillen was examined by Dr. Russ Warren at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York on Thursday after continued left knee soreness that has kept him out of the lineup since August 17.

Dr. Warren recommended a diagnostic surgical procedure on the knee that's tentatively scheduled for September 17. The team said Guillen is expected to make a full recovery for the 2011 campaign.

Guillen was activated off the 15-day disabled on August 9 after being sidelined for just over two weeks with a strained right calf before experiencing the knee problems.

In 68 games this season, Guillen batted .273 with six homers and 34 runs batted in.

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
