03/12/2010 - Kissimmee, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Houston Astros first baseman Lance Berkman will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his left knee within the next few days and will miss two to four weeks of action.
Berkman said he felt discomfort in the knee after running the bases on Sunday. The veteran slugger suffered a knee contusion earlier in the month and had his knee drained twice since, but it has remained problematic.
The surgery will clean out debris in the knee and make Berkman questionable for the Opening Day lineup.
Berkman is entering his 12th big league season, all with Houston. He batted a full-season career-low .274 in 2009 with 25 homers and 80 runs batted in.
The 34-year-old has had knee surgery twice before, once a minor procedure in 1999 on the left knee and another in 2004 to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
