Baseball Betting Lines

06/04/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Braves have placed reliever Takashi Saito on the 15-day disabled list with a left hamstring injury.

Saito felt tightness while pitching in the ninth inning of Atlanta's 4-3 win against the Dodgers on Thursday. He got the first two outs of the frame, but was lifted from the game and Jonny Venters recorded the final out.

The Japanese right-hander has worked to a 1-2 record and 2.92 earned-run average in 25 relief appearances this season. He has 34 strikeouts and only eight walks over 24 2/3 innings.

Righty Craig Kimbrel was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett to fill the roster spot. Kimbrel was with the club for a brief stint in early May and went 1-0 with a 2.70 ERA in four games.
