Angels come to terms with first-round pick Cowart

Baseball Betting Lines

08/16/2010 - Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim announced Monday they have agreed to terms with Kaleb Cowart, the first of the team's three first-round picks in the 2010 draft.

The Angels selected Cowart 18th overall out of Cook County High School in Adel, Georgia. The switch-hitter was named the 2010 Gatorade National High School Baseball Player of the Year after he batted .654 with 11 home runs and 36 stolen bases at Cook County.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Cowart played third base at Cook County but also projects to be a right-handed pitcher. He had signed a letter of intent to play at Florida State, but joins the Angels instead.

"We're pleased to officially welcome Kaleb to our organization," said Eddie Bane, the team's director of scouting. "He will add to the talented pieces already in our farm system, and will play a large role in the future success of the Angels."

The Angels also selected pitcher Cameron Bedrosian (No.29) and center fielder Chevez Clarke (No.30) in the first round, and have already signed them.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game

How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.

A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.

Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.

The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).

Alex Smith completed 27-of-46 passes for 293 yards with a touchdown. Michael Robinson rushed for 29 yards and a pair of touchdowns on five carries.

The Chiefs lost 9-6 to Denver last week as an 11-point underdog. The combined score was well UNDER the posted over/under total (38).

Larry Johnson rushed for 126 yards on 27 carries. Damon Huard completed 17-of-23 passes for 133 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
