Cubs' Silva activated from DL to make Tuesday start
Baseball Betting Lines
09/07/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Cubs activated right-hander Carlos Silva from the 15-day disabled list on Tuesday, in time to make his first start in over a month.
The Cubs announced on Saturday that Silva, who hadn't taken the hill due to a heart issue, would make his return to the rotation against the Houston Astros.
Silva's last performance came on August 1, when he was removed from a start against the Rockies in Denver due to an abnormal heart rate. Since that time, the 31-year-old underwent a cardiac ablation procedure to steady his heartbeat.
In his first season with the Cubs, Silva has gone 10-5 with a 3.92 earned-run average in 20 starts.
The Cubs made five additional roster moves Tuesday, calling up five players from their Triple-A affiliate in Iowa.
Chicago recalled pitchers Justin Berg and Jeff Samardzija, along with outfielder Sam Fuld, while selecting the contracts of infielder Bobby Scales and outfielder Brad Snyder.

Super Bowl XLIV Odds
Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.
Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.
Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds
With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.
That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.
Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.
After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.
The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
