Stockton shares Edmonton Open lead with two othersGolf Betting Lines07/03/2009 - Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brady Stockton posted a three-under 69 Friday to remain a co-leader after two rounds of the Edmonton Open. Stockton, who shared the first-round lead with Robert Gates, completed 36 holes at 10-under-par 134. He was joined in the lead by Graham DeLaet and Jim Rutledge, who both shot 67 for the second straight day. Hugo Leon also carded a five-under 67 and is alone in fourth at minus-eight. Gates tumbled into a tie for 25th at minus-four after stumbling to a three- over 75 on Friday. Stockton birdied the first, but gave that stroke back with a bogey on the third. He rebounded with a birdie on the par-three fourth. After birdies on eight and nine, Stockton faltered to a double-bogey on the par-four 11th. He recovered those lost strokes with birdies on 14 and 15. Stockton bogeyed the par-five 17th at Glendale Golf and Country Club, but birdied the last to share the second-round lead. DeLaet ran off three birdies in a four-hole stretch from the 12th before tripping to a bogey on the 17th. Around the turn, he poured in three straight birdies from the first to jump to 10-under. He parred his final six holes to end there. Rutledge, who played alongside DeLaet, birdied the 11th and 12th, but dropped a shot on 13. He birdied the 17th and around the turn moved to minus-eight with a birdie on the first. He bogeyed the fourth, then birdied five and six. After a bogey on eight, Rutledge eagled the par-five ninth, his last, to finish at minus-10. Barrett Jarosch (67), Yohann Benson (67), George Coetzee (70), Garrett Sapp (70) and Liam Kendregan (71) share fifth place at seven-under-par 137. The cut line fell at one-under-par 143 with 70 players moving on to the weekend. Defending champion John Ellis made the cut on the number.

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.''
