06/27/2008 -
San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Diego Padres signed pitcher
Brett Tomko to a Major League contract Friday, one week after his release from
the Kansas City Royals.
The journeyman right-hander had been designated for assignment on June 12 and
released June 21.
Tomko signed a one-year $3 million contract in the off-season with Kansas City
but struggled to a 2-7 mark with a 6.97 earned run average. The right-
hander was relegated to bullpen duty after allowing five or more runs for the
sixth time in 10 starts on May 26 against Toronto. He then allowed nine
runs over 4 2/3 innings in five relief appearances.
This is Tomko's third stint with the Padres, having pitched for the club in
2002 and again in 2007. The 12-year veteran holds a 95-99 record with a
4.70 ERA with Cincinnati, Seattle, San Diego, St. Louis, San Francisco, Los
Angeles and Kansas City.
San Diego also optioned pitcher Justin Hampson to Triple-A Portland and
outrighted catcher Colt Morton to Double-A San Antonio.
Hampson has appeared in 10 games this season for San Diego, going 0-1 with a
7.27 ERA while Morton batted .067 (1-for-15) in nine games.

MySportsbook.com Posts Odds on 2007 Heisman Trophy
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best odds of winning the 2007 Heisman Trophy at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
