Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Odds to win the MVC tournament in St Louis this weekend:

— Loyola 8-5

— Drake 4-1

— Southern Illinois 9-2

— Missouri State 11-2

— Bradley 8-1

— Northern Iowa 12-1

— Illinois State 16-1

— Indiana State 20-1

— Valparaiso, Evansville 50-1

**********

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Mid-week musings……

13) Last year, five NFL teams drafted a QB in the first round; four of those teams traded up to get their guy, which leads me to believe that there will be trading near the top of the draft again this year, especially if Arizona doesn’t draft Kyler Murray with the #1 pick.

If Arizona doesn’t take Murray, you have to think they’re trading the #1 pick, because there has to be SOMEONE out there who is enamored with Murray, and Arizona could net a couple extra picks to replenish other parts of their team.

12) Good move by Major League Baseball; looks like starting next year, rosters will increase to 26 players per team, while September rosters will be capped at 28, instead of 40, the way it is now. Now if they can just get the DH in both leagues as soon as possible.

11) Minnesota 73, Purdue 69— Carsen Edwards was 7-31 in this game, 3-15 on the arc- he had one assist. Purdue only took 68 shots; rest of the team was 17-37. Big win for Golden Gophers’ NCAA hopes.

If you go 7-31, do you have to soak your arm after the game?

10) Kentucky 80, Ole Miss 76— Rebels lost four of their last five games.

9) Duke 71, Wake Forest 70— Blue Devils were favored by 26.5 points; this score will have seeding repercussions if Zion Williamson doesn’t come back.

8) Florida State 73, Virginia Tech 64 OT— Hokies tied game on 3-pointer with 0:13 left, but FSU won/covered in OT. Bad beat for Tech backers. Seminoles clinch a double-bye in ACC tourney.

7) Oklahoma 81, Kansas 68— Jayhawks lost six of their last eight road games, and for first time in over a decade, they won’t win/share Big X regular season title.

6) Auburn 66, Alabama 60— Tigers trailed this game by 13, rallied for a win, but they haven’t been playing very well.

5) Bronx pitching ace Luis Severino was scratched from his spring training start with shoulder issue, and may not be ready for Opening Day.

Twins’ 3B Miguel Sano has undergone two debridement procedures on his lower right Achilles since injured the heel during a team celebration in winter league back in January. His foot is in a boot and Sano isn’t likely to play ball for the Twins until May.

4) Texas Rangers’ OF Nomar Mazara is the son of a high-ranking official in the Dominican Navy. He played against the Dodgers Sunday; LA broadcaster Nomar Garciaparra said that both his dad and Mazara’s dad are named Ramon, and Nomar, obviously, is Ramon spelled backwards.

3) Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney took batting practice with the St Louis Cardinals over the weekend; in the clips I saw, he was making a lot of contact.

2) New England Patriots had to replace five assistant coaches from last year, after five of last year’s assistants moved on to other NFL jobs. Lot of turnover for a winning team, as Tom Brady continues to make people he works with wealthier.

1) Santa Anita racetrack in southern California suspended racing indefinitely after the 21st horse death there since the winter meet began December 26.
