Baseball Betting Lines

04/10/2009 - Fullerton, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andrew Thomas Gallo is facing three felony murder counts in the drunken driving accident that killed Angels rookie pitcher Nick Adenhart,

The Orange County District Attorney announced the 22-year-old Gallo of San Gabriel was charged with murder of three people and injuring a fourth in the early Thursday morning crash.

In addition to the three homicide charges, Gallo was charged with one felony count of fleeing the scene of a traffic collision involving death or permanent injury, one felony count of driving under the influence causing injury, and one felony count of driving with a .08 percent blood alcohol causing injury.

At the time of the fatal crash, Gallo is accused of having a blood alcohol level of almost three times the legal limit.

Gallo has a prior San Bernardino County conviction for driving under the influence in 2006 and was on probation for the related conviction at the time of the crash.

If convicted on all counts, Gallo faces a maximum sentence of 54 years and eight months to life in state prison. He is already being held on $1 million bail and is scheduled to be arraigned Monday.

Adenhart, who was 22 years old, started Wednesday's game against the Athletics. He died at a hospital early Thursday morning.

According to the DA's office, at approximately 12:23 a.m., Gallo is accused of speeding in a minivan at approximately 65 mph in a 35 mph zone while under the influence of alcohol, on probation, and driving on a suspended driver's license.

The DA's office said Gallo's 21-year-old step-brother was the passenger in the minivan. Gallo is accused of driving eastbound on Orangethorpe Avenue in Fullerton and running through a red light, crashing into a Mitsubishi that was legally passing through the intersection and pushing it into a third car. The driver of the third car sustained minimal injuries.

Adenhart, 20-year-old Courtney Stewart, a student and former Titans cheerleader at California State University, Fullerton, and 25-year-old Henry Pearson, a law student working toward becoming a sports agent, were killed. The fourth victim, 24-year-old Jon Wilhite, a former player for the Titans baseball team, is in critical condition.

Gallo was accused of fleeing the scene on foot before he was arrested less than 30 minutes later, about two miles away on the shoulder of State Route 91. Gallo was also accused of trying to run from the police.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
