03/08/2010 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Oakland Athletics closer Andrew Bailey was one of 29 pre-arbitration players to agree to contracts for the 2010 season.

Bailey made 68 appearances for Oakland last season, posting a 6-3 record with 26 saves and a 1.84 earned run average to earn American League Rookie of the Year honors.

The A's also worked out deals for most of last year's starting rotation Monday, agreeing to terms with righty Trevor Cahill and a trio of left-handers in Brett Anderson, Dallas Braden and Gio Gonzalez.

Cahill made a team-leading 32 starts as a rookie last season for Oakland. He finished 10-13 with a 4.63 ERA.

Anderson, another rookie in 2009, went 11-11 with a 4.06 ERA in 30 starts. Braden made 22 starts last season, going 8-9 with a 3.89 ERA, while Gonzalez had a 6-7 record with a 5.75 ERA in 20 games, 17 of which were starts.

Catcher Kurt Suzuki and outfielder Ryan Sweeney also signed one-year deals. Suzuki, entering his fourth major league season, batted .274 with 15 home runs and 88 RBI in 147 games last year. Sweeney hit .293 with six homers and 53 RBI over 134 games in 2009.

Other notable signees included first baseman Daric Barton, infielder Adam Rosales, shortstop Cliff Pennington, outfielder Travis Buck and pitchers Brad Ziegler and Jerry Blevins.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
