The National Football League rolls out more exhibition games on Saturday, including Brett Favre's Jets playing host to the Redskins. Here's your Daily Sports Roundup . . .

Event of the day . . .

Favre apparently has a 'tired arm', but Jets coach Eric Mangini says that he will start the team's home game against the Redskins on Saturday nonetheless. Don't expect the 38-year-old quarterback to see much time on the field, though, as the Jets aren't going to want their prized acquisition to do too much before the games really start to count.

That means we'll get to see more of Kellen Clemens, Brett Ratliff, and Erik Ainge, with Ainge possibly joining Chad Pennington on a train out of town if he can't beat out the unheralded Ratliff for the team's No. 3 quarterback job. As for the Redskins, starting quarterback Jason Campbell seems to be catching on to the team's new offense, and he should leave most of the work to his backups on Saturday night as well.

The oddsmakers have the Jets listed as 3-point home favorites in this preseason contest, with the game's total sitting at 35.5 points. Kickoff is 7:00pm ET at Giants Stadium, with Favre highlights scheduled to be shown approximately every 20 minutes on local and national sports shows for the following two to three days.

Non-event of the day . . .

Peyton Manning is still sidelined for the Colts, and the Falcons won just four games all of last season. That hasn't built up much anticipation for the Indianapolis/Atlanta preseason clash at the Georgia Dome on Saturday night. The oddsmakers actually opened Indy as 1-point road favorites for that contest, but the latest lines have seen Atlanta favored by 2.5 points. The total for the game is pegged at 37.5 points.

Also on the schedule . . .

Other NFL preseason games on Saturday include Miami at Jacksonville, Minnesota at Baltimore, San Diego at St. Louis, Arizona at Kansas City, Houston at New Orleans, Dallas at Denver, and Chicago at Seattle. As well, Favre's old team, the Packers, will play out west in San Francisco; Green Bay is a 1.5-point road favorite in that game.

The baseball games actually mean something Saturday, and the top pitching matchup looks like it'll be in Cleveland; the Indians' Fausto Carmona (5-4, 4.91 ERA) will take on Angels ace John Lackey (9-2, 3.15 ERA). Other American League games on the Saturday schedule include Kansas City at the Yankees, Seattle at Minnesota, the White Sox at Oakland, Toronto at Boston, Baltimore at Detroit, and Tampa Bay at Texas.

Over in the National League Sean Marshall (2-2, 3.55 ERA) will get a spot start for the Cubs on Saturday night, pitching on the road against the Marlins and Anibal Sanchez (1-2, 4.08 ERA). Also on the NL schedule: the Mets at Pittsburgh, Arizona at Houston, Colorado at Washington, St. Louis at Cincinnati, San Francisco at Atlanta, Philadelphia at San Diego, and Milwaukee at the Dodgers.
