Baseball Betting Lines

01/20/2012 - St. Petersburg, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carlos Pena is a Ray once again.

The Tampa Bay Times reported Friday that the 33-year-old first baseman has agreed to a one-year contract worth $7.25 million.

Pena played for the Rays from 2007-10 before joining the Chicago Cubs last season. He batted .225 with 28 home runs and 80 runs batted in.

His best season was 2007 with Tampa Bay, as he boasted career-best numbers of 46 homers, 121 RBI and a .282 batting average. In his other three years with the Rays, Pena hit just .224, including a mere .196 in 2010. He was an All- Star in 2009, when he led the American League with 39 home runs.

Pena has clubbed 258 home runs in a career that began with Texas 11 years ago, but is only a .239 lifetime hitter. He has also played for Oakland, Detroit and Boston.
