Games Adds Pirates At Pelfrey

Baseball Betting Lines

Rodriguez, who was acquired on July 12 of last season in a trade from the New York Mets, had a mutual option worth $17.5 million dollars for next season declined by the Brewers shortly after the end of the season.

Milwaukee still has three players in arbitration: RHP Shaun Marcum and relievers Kameron Loe and Jose Veras.

Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Royals have agreed to terms on a contract with outfielder Mitch Maier for the 2012 season, avoiding salary arbitration. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Maier is the longest-tenured member on the Royals' 40-man roster and will start his 10th season in the organization. He was selected by the club with the 30th overall pick of the 2003 draft.

His 14 wins gave him at least 10 wins in five straight seasons, making him the first Phillies pitcher to do so since Hall of Famer Steve Carlton's 13-year streak from 1972-84.

An NLCS and World Series MVP for the Phillies in 2008, Hamels has spent his entire six-year career in Philadelphia and has posted a 74-54 mark to go along with a 3.39 ERA. He's also the Phils' all-time leader in postseason wins with seven.

Valdez will earn $930,000, plus incentives, after batting .249 in 99 games last season. He also hit .370 with runners in scoring position.

Originally drafted by the New York Yankees in 2003, Karstens has a 21-36 career record in 119 games (76 starts) for the Yankees and Pirates. He holds an ERA of 4.52 with 264 strikeouts in 501 2/3 innings.

"I am excited to begin a new challenge in baseball," said Counsell in a statement. "I look forward to contributing in any way I can to the success of an organization that has been a special part my life for many years."

Counsell was a .255 career hitter in 1,624 games for the Brewers, Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Marlins and Rockies. He won a World Series in 1997 with Florida, scoring the winning run in Game 7 against Cleveland, and was also a key member of Arizona's 2001 World Series title team, earning NLCS MVP honors that postseason.

Flushing, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Mets signed pitcher Mike Pelfrey to a one-year contract Tuesday, avoiding arbitration with the 28-year-old hurler. Although financial terms were not released, the deal is believed to be worth $5.675 million.

In six seasons, all with the Mets, Pelfrey has a 50-54 record with a 4.40 ERA in 876 2/3 innings over 150 games, 146 starts.
