Bills place Mitchell on IR, sign Ayodele

Football Betting Lines

09/10/2010 - Orchard Park, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Buffalo Bills have placed linebacker Kawika Mitchell on injured reserve because of a foot injury and signed veteran linebacker Akin Ayodele to fill the roster spot.

Mitchell was hurt in practice on Wednesday. He missed the final 11 games of last season with a torn quadriceps muscle.

The 30-year-old South Florida product spent the past two seasons with the Bills after also playing for Kansas City and the New York Giants. He had 82 tackles and four sacks in his first season with Buffalo, then added 27 tackles in five games last year.

Mitchell, who has started 86 of his 96 career games, was listed as the backup to Andra Davis on the team's depth chart for this season.

Ayodele is an eight-year veteran who was cut by Denver last month. He spent the past two seasons with Miami and in 2009 totaled 70 tackles with a forced fumble in 16 games, 15 of those starts. He was signed by the Broncos back in April.

The durable 30-year-old has never missed a game during the course of his eight seasons in the league. In 128 career games, including 104 starts, Ayodele has amassed 630 tackles, 9 1/2 sacks, seven interceptions and 10 forced fumbles for the Dolphins, Cowboys and Jaguars.

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.''
