Indians obtain Slowey from Rockies

Baseball Betting Lines

01/20/2012 - Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Indians acquired right-hander Kevin Slowey and cash considerations from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for pitcher Zach Putnam.

Slowey was dealt by Minnesota to Colorado last month and quickly agreed to a one-year contract with the Rockies to avoid arbitration.

The 27-year-old went 0-8 with a 6.67 ERA for the Twins last season and missed significant time with an abdominal strain. He won 13 games in 2010.

Slowey has compiled a 39-29 record with a 4.66 ERA in 100 career contests (90 starts) for Minnesota.

Putnam, 24, made his major league debut for the Indians in 2011, going 1-1 with a 6.14 ERA in eight relief appearances.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
