Baseball Betting Lines

08/26/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Roger Clemens will be arraigned Monday in U.S. District Court on six counts for his alleged false statements to Congress about using performance-enhancing drugs.

An indictment handed down last Thursday set the stage for the hearing, scheduled for 2 p.m. (et) before Judge Reggie Walton at the E. Barrett Prettyman U.S. Courthouse in Washington D.C., according to an order obtained by the New York Daily News.

Clemens is charged with obstructing a congressional inquiry with 15 different sworn statements that included his denials of taking steroids and human growth hormone. He testified before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in February 2008 that he never took performance-enhancing drugs.

In addition to the obstruction charge, the seven-time Cy Young Award winner is facing three counts of making false statements and two counts of perjury.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
