Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Toronto Argonauts inked wideout Jason Barnes, signing the fleet receiver through 2013. Barnes, who was plucked from the Edmonton Eskimos, will be reunited with former Esks quarterback and current Argos signal caller Ricky Ray.
"Jason Barnes is a legitimate receiving threat with size and experience in the CFL. We believe he is just beginning to realize his potential and will continue to get better," said Toronto head coach Scott Milanovich. "His chemistry with Ricky is obviously another positive as we continue to add weapons for 2012."
"I am definitely excited about the opportunity to come to Toronto and continue to play with Ricky; I'm glad it worked out the way it did," Barnes said. "Toronto is an amazing city and I've always enjoyed playing there. I'm excited to make it my home and get to know my new teammates."
The 6-foot-6, 297-pounder has played in 65 career games with Winnipeg, Saskatchewan and Toronto.
Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth on Wednesday. "I appreciate Albert playing for us after some key injuries this past season," said Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik. "He was very professional and we now wish him all the best as he moves forward."
Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Edmonton Eskimos found a replacement for the departed Jason Barnes on Wednesday, signing wide receiver Cary Koch. "Cary missed much of 2011 with an injury, but within the football fraternity his talent is widely recognized," said Edmonton general manager Eric Tillman. "He runs every route at full speed and he blocks extremely well, too."
The Louisiana native, who played collegiately for both Tulane and Virginia, racked up 21 catches for 299 yards and three touchdowns in the 2010 regular season, adding four grabs for 57 yards in that year's Grey Cup loss to Montreal.
Marsh has 433 tackles and 23 interceptions in eight seasons with British Columbia. He earned his third West Division All-Star honor in 2011.
Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Leave it to a wide receiver to add a little spice to what's customarily the blandest period of the NFL year. With all relatively quiet on the Peyton Manning front for the time being, the noisiest piece of news of this post-Super Bowl lull came from Randy Moss' public declaration that he intends to end a one-year retirement and return to football in 2012.

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.''
