Orioles ink veteran P AyalaBaseball Betting Lines02/10/2012 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Orioles signed veteran reliever Luis Ayala to a one-year contract on Friday. The right-hander's deal includes a club option for 2013. Ayala, 34, is familiar with the American League East having pitched for the New York Yankees last season. In 52 appearances, he posted a 2-2 record with a 2.09 earned run average. In seven major league seasons, Ayala owns a career mark of 31-41 with 18 saves and a 3.47 ERA in 429 games for the Expos/Nationals, Mets, Twins, Marlins and Yankees. To make room for Ayala on the 40-man roster, the Orioles designated outfielder Matt Angle for assignment. The club also announced that infielder Nick Johnson has been signed to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Johnson was a member of the Cleveland organization in 2011, playing in a combined 55 games for Double-A Akron and Triple-A Columbus. The 33-year-old is a career .270 hitter with 91 home runs and 387 RBI at the major league level.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday. Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine. El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year. MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle. New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele. Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
