06/01/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Houston Astros pitcher Jeriome Robertson passed away on Saturday after a motorcycle accident in Exeter, California. He was 33.
Robertson finished seventh in the 2003 National League Rookie of the Year voting as he went 15-9 with a 5.10 earned run average for Houston. His 15 wins led the team and all rookies that season.
"The Astros family is saddened by the death of Jeriome Robertson," said Astros president Tal Smith. "We drafted Jeriome in the 24th round in 1995, and he was a member of our organization for eight years. He was 15-9 in 2003 in what was essentially his rookie season. That season, he was one of four starters that were drafted in the 20th round or later, along with Wade Miller, Roy Oswalt and Tim Redding. It is tragic to see death claim another former player at such an early age, and we wish to express our condolences to Jeriome's family and friends."
Over his brief, three-year MLB career, he went 16-12 with a 5.71 ERA in 51 appearances, which included 32 starts. He spent his final time in the majors with Cleveland in 2004.

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
