Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

-- White Sox have been outscored 20-7 in the first inning this year.

-- La'el Collins gets a guaranteed three-year deal from the Cowboys, who get a real good prospect without spending a draft pick.

-- Seven of Joc Pederson's last eight hits have been home runs.

-- Mets are 18-10; their AAA team in Las Vegas has won 14 in a row, when is a big league team going to hire Wally Backman as its manager?

-- Mike Fiers struck out the side on nine pitches in the fourth inning; that does not happen very much.

-- Astros 3, Angels 2-- Houston scored three in ninth to stun Halos. In 71 games the last three nights, in only four games did the winning run score after the sixth inning. Three of those four were Angel games.

**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here........

13) My last comment on DeflateGate; there are too many rules in this world and this is a perfect example of that. Let teams have as much as air as they want in the damn ball-- only footballs that need to be monitored are ones used for the kicking game, both punts and kicks. Otherwise, there should be no rule.

12) Staying in Boston, the Red Sox fired their pitching coach, as GM covers his own butt for the lousy pitching staff he put together. Instead of paying Rick Porcello $20M a year, how about paying Jon Lester while they had him?

11) Alex Rodriguez hit his 661st homer Thursday, passing Willie Mays for 4th on the all-time list. Think he's gotten that $6M check yet?

10) Random stat (from Chris Komka of Comcast Chicago): of all the guys in MLB history who hit 500+ homers, these three had the most plate appearances before hitting their first homer:
1) Mel Ott, 129......2) Reggie Jackson 112....3) Alex Rodriguez 108

9) Pirates are 13-15; in 10 of those 28 games, their hitters haven't drawn any walks. No other team has more than four games like that.

8) Florida hired Michael White from Louisiana Tech as its new hoop coach; his profile resembles Billy Donovan's from 20 years ago, except his dad is AD at Duke and his brother is AD at Buffalo. White was 83-24 the last three years at Tech but never made the NCAA tournament. He has very big shoes to fill.

7) Gregg Popovich makes $11M a year?!?!?! Damn, for that much he should not complain about doing interviews after the first or third quarters. TV helps write those big paychecks, after all.

6) Everett Golson is going to transfer from Notre Dame and is eligible to play this fall; this is a kid who led Notre Dame to the national title game vs Alabama as a freshman in 2012, but had fallen out of favor since. It is a fickle world.

5) Top three college baseball teams in latest rankings:
1) LSU...... 2) Texas A&M.....3) Louisville

4) John Wall has five non-displaced fractures in his left hand/wrist; x-rays taken after Monday's game revealed no fractures, but they're there. His status for Game 3 is still unclear, but his hand is still really swollen. I'm guessing the term "pain tolerance" will make an appearance fairly soon.

3) Teams whose pitchers walk more batters than they strike out in a game are 7-45 so far this season. It is important to throw strikes.

2) This fall will be the Cleveland Browns' 17th season since returning to the NFL; in the first 16 years, they were 1-0 once, in 2004, when they won 20-3 over the Ravens, who used to play in Cleveland. They lost their other fifteen season openers- their opener this year is against the Jets in Swamp Stadium

1) If the NFL suspends Tom Brady for the season opener, will NBC ask for a different Thursday night game to open its season with? Steelers-Patriots does not have the same marquee value if Jimmy Garoppolo is the Pats' QB.

Cardinals undefeated in Wacha's past seven starts

Michael Wacha has taken a huge leap forward for the St. Louis Cardinals, which has the Red Birds looking for their eighth consecutive wins with the rightie on the mound. In Wacha's past seven starts he has only allowed 1.6 runs per game, while allowing one or less four times.

This season has seen Wacha post a 4-0 record with a 1.93 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP.

St. Louis visits the Pittsburgh Pirates Friday.

Gonzalez winless in past eight versus Braves

Gio Gonzalez will look to exorcise some demons when he takes the mound Friday, as his Washington Nationals have dropped their past eight contests he has started.

Gonzalez has not been terrible in his appearances as he has only been chased before the sixth inning in three of those eight games while allowing 3.4 runs per contest.

In a smaller window the leftie has actually been solid as he has allowed two runs or less in 62.5 percent of those games.

Giants-Marlins to play with high winds

There may appear to be some extra pop in the bats at AT&T Park Friday as high winds will be helping out batters. The Miami Marlins and San Francisco Giants are going to face-off with winds blowing between eight and 13 miles per hour out towards centerfield.

The Marlins will start Jarred Cosart (2.97 ERA) while the Giants will send Tim Linecum (2.40 ERA) to the mound.

The current total for the Marlins-Giants is 7.

Hitter friendly wind for Phillies-Mets

There will be some extra carry on balls hit to centerfield at Citizen Bank Park Friday. Winds are expected to be blowing outward to CF from six to nine miles per hour when the Philadelphia Phillies host the New York Mets.

However the total is posted at a low 6.5 as the Mets will start Matt Harvey with the Phillies countering with Cole Hamels.

Orioles record sixth straight under

The Baltimore Orioles may have lost 4-3 to the New York Yankees Thursday, but under bettors continue to find profit in the O's. Six consecutive Orioles games have seen the under cash out thanks, in large, to the teams offensive deficiencies.

Baltimore has scored a mere 14 runs in their past six, which equals an average of 2.3 runs per game.

The O's continue their weekend series with the Yankees Friday with a current total of 8.5.

Padres shutout for third of past four games

The San Diego Padres continued their ineffectiveness with their bats Thursday as the team has now managed to not score a single run in three of their past four games.

Those three scoreless games have seen the Padres manage a mere three hits per game while giving up nearly 12 to their opponents.

San Diego continues their weekend series with the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday with the Padres currently -110.

Pirates halt losing streak, finally beat Reds

The Pittsburgh Pirates finally halted their five game losing streak by topping the Cincinnati Reds Thursday. The Pirates bats finally woke up by plating seven runs Thursday compared to just five during their five games previous.

The Bucs win also ended their seven game losing streak against their division rivals.
