Michigan AD Martin to retire in 2010
Chockey Betting Lines
10/21/2009 -
Ann Arbor, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - University of Michigan director of
athletics Bill Martin will retire from his position on September 4, 2010, he
announced Wednesday.
Martin notified school president Mary Sue Coleman with a letter, indicating
the two had discussed his retirement for a couple of years.
"For nearly a decade, Bill has shown truly outstanding leadership as Athletic
Director at the University of Michigan," Coleman said in a statement. "He has
not only done a superb job of attracting top coaches for the full range of
Michigan sports, but he has also assembled an excellent management team to
oversee all aspects of athletics operations."
Coleman also said Martin will remain as AD until a successor is in place, then
will serve as a special advisor until he retires in September. Coleman said
she will personally oversee the search for Michigan's next AD, which she
expects to take "a number of months."
Martin has been in his position since August 2000, several months after he was
named interim AD. He was initially given a five-year appointment, but remained
in his role and helped steer the school's football stadium renovation project.

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.''
