Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

How the divisional races in major league baseball are shaping up..........

NL East-- Washington leads Mets by three games, Miami by four.

NL Central-- Cubs are jogging, lead sliding Pittsburgh by 8.5 games.

NL West-- Giants lead underachieving Dodgers by 5.5 games; other three are awful.

AL East-- Red Sox lead Orioles by a game, Toronto by 3.5 games.

AL Central-- Royals now lead Cleveland, fading White Sox by 1.5 games.

AL West-- Texas/Seattle are tied for first; they meet this weekend in Arlington.

**********

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

13) Warriors 104, Cavaliers 89-- Curry/Thompson combined for only 20 points, their lowest total of the year, and Golden State still wasn't in danger here. Subs for Warriors were a combined +55 in the game.

12) Now Curry/Thompson can rest up for a couple days before Sunday's Game 2. Golden State has won six in a row over the Cavaliers, dating back to LY's Finals.

11) Mariners 16, Padres 13-- San Diego led 12-2 after 5th inning, trailed before the 7th-inning stretch. Seattle had seven consecutive run scoring singles in top of the 7th. If you took the Giants and Clayton Kershaw out of the NL West, it wouldn't be that much better than the freakin' Pacific Coast League.

10) Bud Black went 649-713 in 8.5 years as Padres' manager; looking back, he seems like freakin' Sparky Anderson compared to the present regime. Somene remind me why an Ivy league genius fired Black. anyone? anyone? Bueller?

9) So far seven football recruits have asked out of their Letter of Intent to play this fall at Baylor; will be interesting to see how much this damages their recruiting going forward. People tend to have short memories.

8) When UNLV hired Marvin Menzies as its basketball coach April 16, they had three scholarship players on their roster- now they have 11, two under the limit. This is an excellent job of recruiting by the new staff; plus there are no McDonald's A-A's in the group, so no one will be jumping to the NBA next spring. Muy bueno. .

7) Looking thri college hoop stuff this week, it is striking how St Mary's went 29-6 this year, 15-3 in WCC, despite Gaels having no seniors on their squad. They should be really good this coming season, with their whole team back.

6) Rennie Stennett was at the Pirate-Marlin game Wednesday night; he is best known as last player to get seven hits in a game, on September 16, 1975 against Chicago. Odd thing is that his first hit that night was against Rick Reuschel; his 7th hit that night was against Reuschel's brother Paul

5) Arizona 3B Jake Lamb has nine homers this year, five in the ninth inning.

4) Diamondback TV analyst Bob Brenly is a very nice guy, totally relaxed during games, so it was odd to hear shred Houston OF Carlos Gomez during Monday's game, saying opponents are "delighted to see Gomez struggle" like he is this season. Gomez is known as a showboat who gloats when things are going well for him- they have not been going well for him for over a year now.

3) Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas will be imploded starting at 2am June 14- demolition of the famed casino, which will be completed in August, will cost $42M.

2) Jets need a starting QB, Rams have a QB (Nick Foles) they don't want. Foles threw 27 TDs with two INTs when he was on the Eagles and had DeSean Jackson to throw to. Jets should toss the Rams a 7th-round pick and help both teams out, and then Ryan Fitzpatrick can explain to his wife why he turned down a $24M deal. .

1) ESPN is not going to be happy if the NBA Finals are as bad as it looks like they might be. Thunder-Warriors seems like real Finals- they were televised on TNT. The Western Conference is just so much better than the East. Would the league think about eliminating east/west distinctions for the playoffs? Tough thing to do.

LEADING OFF: Baker back in Cincy, X-Man goes for 27 straight
June 3, 2016

A look at what's happening all around the majors today:

WELCOME BACK

Dusty Baker manages a game in Cincinnati for the first time since the Reds let him go after a loss to the Pirates in the 2013 NL wild-card game. Now guiding the first-place Nationals, Baker will see whether star Bryce Harper is able to play. The reigning NL MVP has been out of the lineup since being hit on the side of the right knee by a pitch on Monday.

THE X FACTOR

Xander Bogaerts takes a 26-game hitting streak for the Red Sox into the series opener at Fenway Park against Toronto. Bogaerts faces a tricky task to extend it - knuckleballer R.A. Dickey pitches for the Blue Jays against David Price, the lefty ace who led Toronto to the AL East title last season.

STRONG START

Healthy ace Yu Darvish and the Rangers host Seattle in a matchup between the top teams in the AL West. Out of the majors last year while recovering from elbow surgery, Darvish gave up one run in five innings vs. Pittsburgh last weekend in his season debut.

DECISION TIME

The Mets are expected to decide whether to put third baseman David Wright on the disabled list before they open a 10-game trip in Miami. Wright has missed five straight games with a herniated disk in his neck. He was scheduled to remain in New York for treatment Thursday, an off day for the team. ''We'll assess the situation when he gets down there,'' manager Terry Collins said Wednesday.

BOTH ON A ROLL

Two streaking pitchers take the mound when the Yankees open a three-game series in Baltimore. New York right-hander Nathan Eovaldi (6-2) has won a career-best five consecutive starts going into his matchup with Chris Tillman (7-1), who is 6-0 in his last seven.

MLB betting cheat sheet: ‘A’ For Effort

The hottest team in baseball right now is … the Oakland A’s?

Power Sports breaks down all the best betting notes for this weekend's MLB series in our betting cheat sheet, including the Oakland A's hot streak.

‘A’ For Effort

The hottest team in baseball right now is … the Oakland A’s? Though they are winners of five in a row, we should be careful about reading too much into this as all they did was sweep Minnesota in the last series and their run differential remains a poor -42 for the season (second worst in the American League, ahead of only the Twins). This weekend might present an ideal time to “sell high” on Billy Beane’s club as they pay a visit to Houston. Sure, the Astros have been a huge disappointment thus far, but they themselves were on a five-game win streak prior to Thursday’s loss. The A’s have lost 13 of their last 18 road games and I’ll be talking a lot more about them in this column.

Just As We Expected

Coming into the season, there were a consensus seven teams expected to be playoff contenders in the National League. Through 50+ games, those same teams (Nats, Mets, Cubs, Pirates, Cardinals, Giants and Dodgers) are the seven that have produced positive run differentials so far in the Senior Circuit. The only matchup this weekend among that grouping takes place in St. Louis where the Giants come calling. They’ll conclude the three game set on Sunday Night Baseball. That finale probably represents the Cards best chance at a win in this series as they’ll face Jake Peavy, who has the highest ERA and WHIP on the Giants staff. The fact that both teams will be sending a trio of righties to the hill in this series does seem to favor the home team, however. While St. Louis bats just .245 vs. lefties, they are at .273 vs. righties. For San Francisco, it’s just the opposite. They hit .276 vs. lefties, but only .248 vs. righties.

Rocky Road

You have to feel for San Diego, who blew a 10-run lead (at home!) to Seattle Thursday night. Scoring 27 runs in two days and coming away with only a split is tough. But you should probably look for the strong offensive output to continue this weekend. That’s because the Padres welcome in the division rival Rockies, whose pitching staff, as always, is very, very bad. While the ERA of the Colorado staff does jump from 29th overall to 12th on the road, the team has lost 14 of its last 18 games at Petco Park and also just dropped three of four – at home – to the lowly Reds.

Hitting Notes

* The A’s Khris Davis hit 11 home runs in May, tied for the most in all of baseball with the Reds’ Adam Duvall. However, he’s already started to slow down (just 1 HR in last 21 at-bats) and he strikes out at an alarming rate (53 times in 51 games). In other words, look for Davis to regress here in June.

* Yet another Oakland slugger, Danny Valencia, has been swinging the stick quite well of late. Over the last seven days, Valencia is 12 for 22 at the plate. But, yet again, regression is probably forthcoming. After not hitting a single home run in his first 61 at-bats this year, Valencia proceeded to hit five in a three-day span earlier this month. The two multi-homer games equaled the number of times he’d done that in the first 543 games of his career.

Pitching Notes

* Oakland also has a pitcher worth talking about as Rich Hill went 5-1 in May with 2.13 ERA and 37 strikeouts in 38 innings pitched. He is expected to start Saturday against the one team that beat him last month, that being Houston. Interestingly, Hill has a perfect 6-0 team start record on the road where he’s made 6.6 units.

* Don’t be fooled by Noah Syndergaard’s 6-4 team start record. The Mets’ phenom has pitched very well of late, not giving up a single earned run in his last three starts, though the last one was cut short due to him being ejected. He threw an inning of scoreless relief on Tuesday (two strikeouts) and now has a 26-0 KW ratio his last 17 1/3 innings of work. He will be on the hill Friday vs. Miami.

Totals Trend

Last year, the Blue Jays lapped the field in terms of runs scored, but this year it is another American League East team doing the same (Red Sox). Even though Boston is by far and away baseball’s highest scoring team, be careful about betting Overs this weekend. Toronto’s last visit to Fenway Park produced four Unders and they are the surprising best team to bet on for Under bettors at 19-33-3 in all games this season.

Friday's Weather Report

* In Baltimore, there is a 42 percent chance of rain and even a chance of thunderstorms for tonight's game between the Orioles and Yankees. The total for the game is currently 8.0.

* In Arlington, there is a 60 percent chance of rain with a chance of thunderstorms in the forecast with the Rangers expected to host the Mariners. The total is currently 8.5.

* It could be a messy in in Minnesota, where the Twins are scheduled to face off against the Rays. There is a 67 percent chance of rain and thunderstorms expected in the forecast. There will also be a 10-12 mile per hour hitters wind gusting out to let field. The total is currently 9.0.

* In St. Louis, there is a 20 percent chance of rain and a chance of thunderstorms, with the Cardinals expected to face off against the Giants. The total is currently 7.5.
