07/25/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lefty Ross Detwiler makes his season debut today when the Washington Nationals try to avoid a sweep in the finale of a three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park.
On Saturday, Ryan Braun drove in Rickie Weeks with the game-winning run in the ninth inning, lifting the Brewers to a 4-3 win. Braun and Jim Edmonds each recorded a solo home run in Milwaukee's third straight win, which was credited to John Axford (6-1) despite suffering his first blown save of the season.
After Adam Dunn's sacrifice fly tied it in the top of the ninth, Weeks reached on a one-out single off Drew Storen (2-2) in the bottom half.
Joe Inglett took a payoff pitch off the plate to draw a walk, then Braun roped a line drive off the base of the left-field wall to bring in Weeks without a play at the plate.
Detwiler, who turned 24 in March, debuted with the Nationals shortly after they made him the sixth overall selection in the 2007 draft. He struck out one batter in a single scoreless inning that year, then returned to go 1-6 in 15 games - 14 starts - in 2009 while posting a 5.00 earned run average in 75 2/3 innings.
The 6-foot-5, 174-pounder was called up to replace starter Luis Atilano, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 21 because of bone chips in his pitching elbow.
Detwiler was 2-2 with a 2.48 ERA in seven starts this season with Triple-A Syracuse.
Milwaukee counters with righty Dave Bush, who's winless in two starts since the all-Star break. The 30-year-old Pittsburgh native was shellacked for 16 hits and 12 runs over 10 innings in those outings, which resulted in losses at Atlanta and Pittsburgh.
He defeated the Pirates in Milwaukee for his most recent win on July 10.
Bush, who is 3-2 in five lifetime starts against Washington, is 2-4 in 10 outings at Miller Park this season.
The Nationals took two of three from the Brewers at home from April 16-18, but have lost in 11 of their last 13 visits to Miller Park.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
