Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

— Hard to believe NFL teams used to play six exhibition games every year- four is too many.

— A’s used 8 different starting pitchers in their last eight games, first time they’ve done that since 1961.

— Alex Rodriguez wanted to play 3B in his last game tonight…..denied!!!!

— Only 4 of Patriots’ 14 coaches played I-A (bigtime) college football.

— Noah Syndergaard has given up 36 stolen bases this year, most in NL; next highest total is 20.

— Preseason football scores mean very little; the ’08 Lions went 4-0 in the preseason, then went 0-16 in the regular season.

**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: NFL knowledge to ponder

13) In two years under Chip Kelly, Eagles scored 18 TDs on defense/special teams; next-highest in NFL during that time was Arizona, with 12.

12) Speaking of Cardinals, they’ve scored 17 TDs on defense/special teams in three years under Bruce Arians, while allowing only 3. Redbirds are 15-3-1 vs spread in games with spread of 3 or less points.

11) Jets had their first winning year since 2010 LY, scoring 24.2 ppg, after scoring 17.6/17.1 the previous two years. Jets are 7-2 as home underdogs the last three years.

10) Jaguars scored 23.5 ppg LY, after scoring less than 16 ppg the four years before that. Jags are 11-29 vs spread in last 40 non-divisional home games. Over is 20-12 in their road games the last four years.

9) Redskins are 7-17 as home favorites the last eight years, during which time they’ve had two winning years- they were +4/+17 in turnovers those two years, a combined -49 the other six.

8) Browns are 12-36 SU in division games last eight years; they’ve started season 1-0 once in 17 years. Cleveland is 1-6 as a favorite vs AFC North foes, 21-19-1 as a dog.

7) Jay Cutler completed 63.9% of his passes LY but only 46.5% in red zone. Bears let Lovie Smith go after a 10-6 year in 2012 (they were +20 in TOs); since then, they’re 19-29, with a -4 TO ratio.

6) Dallas still needs a backup QB, with Kellen Moore hurt. Cowboys scored only 17.2 ppg LY with Romo missing lot of time. Dallas backup QBs completed 16 of 48 passes in red zone.

5) Carolina Panthers are 12-4-2 as home favorites last three years; over last eight years, they’re 11-3 as a HF in NFC South games.

4) Houston went 9-7 in both of Bill O’Brien’s seasons as coach, with +17 TO ratio, but were only #17, #19 in yards gained. Texans are 11-3 as a favorite, 10-4-1 in AFC South road games.

3) Cincinnati’s last playoff win was so long ago, it came against the Houston Oilers in 1990. Marvin Lewis is 112-94-2 as Bengals’ coach in regular season, but 0-7 in playoff games and that has become a problem.

2) Over last two years, favorites are 12-2-2 vs spread in Detroit’s home games. Under is 20-12 in games at Ford Field the last four years. Lions are 7-12 as road underdogs the last four years, during which time they’re -27 in TOs.

1) In Andy Reid’s three years coaching the Chiefs, they’ve scored 20 TDs on defense/special teams, allowed only two, going 31-17. Alex Smith doesn’t make mistakes, which wins a lot of regular season games.

MLB betting cheat sheet and odds: Reed between the lines

Sunday sees Cincinnati Reds starter Cody Reed return to action, which could mean a nice payday for over bettors.

We break down all the betting notes you need to handicap this weekend's MLB series, including Cody Reed - one of baseball's most predictable starting pitchers - climbing the hill in Milwaukee against the Brewers on Sunday.

Au Revoir, A-Rod

One of baseball’s most polarizing players says farewell Friday night as New York Yankees legend Alex Rodriguez plays his final game in pinstripes. He’ll go toe-to-toe with Tampa Bay Rays starter Chris Archer, against whom he has a pair of home runs - but no other hits - in 15 all-time at-bats. Rodriguez is +450 to hit a home run in the game, and -650 to go without one.

Are the Rangers For Real?

The Texas Rangers remain one of the most enigmatic teams in baseball. They’ve won bettors a league-high 2,551 units through 116 games, yet own the worst run differential (-1) of any of the six division leaders. They come into this weekend’s three-game series with the visiting Detroit Tigers on an incredible 1-9-2 O/U run; Saturday starter, lefty Cole Hamels, is 1-4 O/U in his last five.

Reed Between the Lines

Sunday sees Cincinnati Reds starter Cody Reed return to action, which could mean a nice payday for over bettors. Reed is a whopping 7-1-1 O/U this season, with teams combining to score an average of better than 11 1/2 runs in Reed’s nine major-league starts heading into the weekend. A Brewers/Over parlay is a solid play, with the Reds having lost all nine of Reed’s starts.

Hitting Notes

* Rangers catcher Jonathan Lucroy may not have helped boost his team above the total since arriving in Arlington, but he has been a major contributor to the team’s recent winning ways. The trade-deadline acquisition has four homers and six RBIs in eight games since joining the Rangers, who are 6-2 in those contests.

* The Houston Astros are a much better play when Jose Altuve is knocking in runs. Altuve drove in three runs in Thursday’s 15-7 triumph over the Minnesota Twins, giving bettors who chose Houston and the over plenty to celebrate. The Astros are 12-6 SU and 13-4-1 O/U in 18 games when Altuve plates multiple runs in a game.

Pitching Notes

* Bettors waiting for David Price to turn things around may be better off looking elsewhere for the rest of the season. Price has lost the third-most units of any pitcher in the majors (-$1,041), allowing opponents to hit .270 off him. He has just one victory in his last nine starts overall, with Boston going 2-7 in that span.

* On the other end of the spectrum, few pitchers have had bettors smiling more than Detroit rookie Michael Fulmer. The new Tigers ace has limited opponents to two or fewer runs in 12 of his last 14 starts, a major contributor to his second-place rank in units won ($1,369). He’ll start Sunday against host Texas.

Totals Trend

The Toronto Blue Jays have played to the under in nine of their last 11 games and have the worst O/U record in the majors at 45-65-5. That stretch includes four straight unders earlier this month against the Houston Astros, who visit Rogers Centre for a three-game set beginning Friday night.

Friday's Weather Report

* There is a 65 percent chance of rain and thunderstorms in the Cleveland area for Friday's meeting between the Indians and the Los Angeles Angels. There will also be a 10-15 mph wind blowing straight out to right field. The total is currently set at 8.0.

* There will be some thunderstorms in the area around Wrigley Field on Friday evening for Game 2 between the Chicago Cubs and the rival St. Louis Cardinals. The system will bring with it a 60 percent chance of rain showers and a 5-10 mph wind blowing out to center. The total is currently OFF.

* The Atlanta Braves will be in Washington, D.C. to take on the Nationals on Friday evening and there is a 20-30 percent chance of thunder showers. There will also be a 5-10 mph wind blowing out the center field. The total is currently set at 7.5.

* There is a 40 percent chance of some thunder showers in The Bronx for Friday's meeting between the New York Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays. The total is currently set at 8.5.

* The Arizona Diamondbacks are in Boston this weekend for an interleague series against the Red Sox and they could also be up against a thunderstorm on Friday night. There is a 50 percent chance of rain and a 5-10 mph wind blowing out to right field. The total is currently set at 9.5.
