Mild Concussion In Era Leadoff

Baseball Betting Lines

Scottsdale, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jim Tracy has a handshake agreement to remain with the Colorado Rockies. General manager Dan O'Dowd said Monday the Rockies expect their relationship with Tracy, who has managed the team for the past three seasons, "to continue for a number of years."

 

In November 2009, he agreed to a three-year contract extension that runs through the end of this season.

 

The 26-year-old Carpenter made his MLB debut with the Cubs in 2011, posting a 2.79 earned run average over 10 relief appearances. The right-hander also combined for 32 games between Chicago's Double-A Tennessee and Triple-A Iowa clubs last year, going 3-4 with two saves and a 5.91 ERA.

 

Originally selected by the Cubs in the third round of the 2008 draft, Carpenter has a 21-19 record with two saves and a 3.62 ERA in 96 career minor league games (60 starts) in Chicago's system.

 

Lake Buena Vista, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Atlanta Braves pitcher Tommy Hanson suffered a mild concussion after being involved in a one-car accident on Monday. Hanson was on his way to the club's spring training camp in Florida on Monday when a tire blew out on his vehicle. He may have hit his head on the steering wheel, Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said.

 

Hanson was 11-7 with a 3.60 earned run average in 22 starts last season, but missed most of the final two months because of shoulder problems.

 

The 39-year-old Ibanez will fill a need for a lefty-swinging designated hitter and will add depth to the team's outfield that will be manned by Brett Gardner, Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher.

 

The Yankees were able to free up some money to add a bat this past weekend when they finalized a trade that sent pitcher A.J. Burnett to Pittsburgh.

 

In 1,817 games over 16 seasons with Seattle, Kansas City and Philadelphia, Ibanez has 252 homers, 1,054 runs batted in and a .280 batting average. He was an All-Star for the first and only time with the Phillies in 2009, and appeared in the playoffs with Philadelphia each of the last three years.
