Golf Betting Lines

08/20/2010 - Seaforth, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brady Stockton fired an eight-under 63 and Brian Prouty shot a 64 Friday to join Rob Grube in the lead after two rounds of the Seaforth Country Classic.

Grube, the 18-hole leader, had a 67 to end the day tied with Stockton and Prouty at 12-under 130.

Canada's Kent Eger, the 2008 champion, trailed the three Americans by a shot after carding a 64 to end 36 holes on the Seaforth course with an 11-under 131.

Another American, Tom Glissmeyer, shot a 61 to match the course record and move into fifth place at 10-under 132.

Sixteen more players were within five strokes of the co-leaders heading into the weekend at the final event prior to the Canadian Tour Championship.

Among them was American Aaron Goldberg, who has won the last two events on tour to become No. 1 on the money list. Goldberg shot a 66 and was four strokes back at eight-under 134.

Grube is the only co-leader with a victory on the Canadian Tour, having captured the Riviera Nayarit Classic in April for his first career win. He opened with a 63 for the 18-hole lead and followed that with a round that included an eagle, four birdies and two bogeys.

Stockton, who took second place at the Dakota Dunes Casino Open last month, rattled off nine birdies against just one bogey in the second round.

Prouty had six birdies and an eagle in his first 14 holes and didn't make a bogey until the 18th. He also posted a season-best finish at the Dakota Dunes event, tying for ninth place.

NOTES: Glissmeyer matched the 61 carded by Adam Bland in 2008...Defending champion Brian Unk is seven shots back at five-under par...The cut line fell at three-under 139 with 68 players moving on to the weekend.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.

Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.

El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.

MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. 

Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.

New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.

Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
