07/24/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Colorado Rockies have activated pitcher Taylor Buchholz off the 60-day disabled list.
Buchholz has not pitched in the majors since September 9, 2008. He sat out all of last season because of elbow problems that eventually required Tommy John surgery in June 2009.
The right-hander was 6-6 with a 2.17 earned run average in a career-high 63 relief appearances in 2008.
Colorado optioned pitcher Jhoulys Chacin to Triple-A Colorado Springs to open a spot on the active roster and transferred utilityman Eric Young, Jr. to the 60-day disabled list to free up a spot on the 40-man roster.
Chacin appeared in 19 games for the Rockies this season with 12 starts, but had been relegated to the bullpen since early July. He threw 1 2/3 hitless innings in Friday's loss to Philadelphia and for the season owns a record of 5-8 with a 4.04 ERA.
Young has not played since May 12 because of a stress fracture in his right tibia. He was batting .250 with three runs batted in over 13 games before the injury.

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). College Football Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. ( See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)
But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. ( More details on playing the Money Line)
Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.
The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under . So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.
Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.
The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl odds might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.
Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.
