Baseball Betting Lines

05/25/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Dodgers have activated shortstop Rafael Furcal off the 15-day disabled list, while reliever George Sherrill is taking his place on the DL with a stiff back.

Furcal has been sidelined with a strained left hamstring since April 28. He sustained the ailment a day earlier in a doubleheader in New York while trying to beat out a double-play grounder. It was his third trip to the DL in five seasons with Los Angeles.

The 32-year-old was batting .309 with six runs batted in, five doubles, two triples and eight stolen bases in 19 games.

Sherrill, meanwhile, has struggled to a 7.36 earned-run average and 0-1 mark in 22 appearances so far this year. The lefty was walked 15 batters with 10 strikeouts in 14 2/3 innings and has two blown saves to his credit.

This marks Sherrill's second career trip to the disabled list.
