07/30/2010 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Twins demoted pitcher Nick Blackburn to Triple-A Rochester on Friday to make room for newly acquired reliever Matt Capps.
Blackburn, who received a four-year, $14 million contract last March, is 7-7 with a 6.66 earned run average in 18 starts this season. The righty also made one appearance in relief.
Capps was obtained from Washington late Thursday for two prospects, one being highly regarded catcher Wilson Ramos.
The Twins also placed infielder Nick Punto on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 29, with a strained left hamstring and recalled infielder Trevor Plouffe from Rochester.
Punto is hitting .251 with one home run and 20 RBI in 80 games.
This is Plouffe's third stint with Minnesota this season. He has played in seven games, batting .130 (3-for-23) with three RBI.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
