06/25/2009 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Braves placed pitcher Jeff Bennett on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a broken left hand and recalled pitcher Boone Logan from Triple-A Gwinnett.

Bennett sustained the injury after punching a door in frustration after surrendering a go-ahead, two-out, two-run single to the Yankees' Alex Rodriguez during the sixth inning of Wednesday's 8-4 loss.

Dr. Gary Lourie placed pins in Bennett's hand on Thursday morning and the right-hander is expected to be sidelined at least three weeks.

Bennett is 2-4 with a 3.18 earned-run average in 33 appearances for the Braves this season.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

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 Heisman Trophy odds 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.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
