Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Six batters who have come to bat with most men on base this season, and %age of those runners they knocked in:

6) Christian Yelich 41 (14.6%)

T4) Carlos Santana 42 (19.0%)
T4) Kris Bryant 42 (11.9%)

3) Carlos Correa 43 (4.7%)

2) Robinson Cano 44 (15.9%)

1) Pablo Sandoval 46 (13.0%)

**********

Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but…….

13) They ran the Boston Marathon Monday; I’m thinking it isn’t healthy to run 26 miles.

A marathon is an event that was established “…….in commemoration of the fabled run of the Greek soldier Pheidippides, a messenger from the Battle of Marathon to Athens, who reported the victory.”

Unfortunately for Pheidippides, as soon as he reported the victory, he collapsed and dropped dead. Like I said, running 26 miles at once might not be good for you.

12) That said, it does take serious onions to run that far; it is demanding, both physically, mentally. Monday, a retired Marine who lost the lower part of his left leg by stepping on an IED in Afghanistan in 2011. ran on his prosthetic leg while carrying a large American flag for the entire 26.2-mile race, finishing in 5:46:13.

That is one tough human.

11) I’m probably not the best person to discuss running; if I drive 26 miles, I’m looking for the drive-thru window at Wendy’s or McDonald’s.

10) Rough start to the year for my A’s; their two best pitchers (Gray/Graveman) are both hurt already, now SS Semien has a broken wrist and is done for couple months. Not like he is Ozzie Smith or anything, but unless they bring highly touted prospect Franklin Barreto up from AAA, best they can do is move Lowrie back to SS and bring a 2B up from Nashville. Oy.

9) Toronto 4, Washington 3 OT— All three series games have gone OT, second time in Washington’s franchise history that has happened. Caps are 1-5 in those six games.

8) Cole Hamels has started three games for Texas this month; Rangers led all three games after the fifth inning. Texas bullpen, however, has allowed 14 runs in 9.2 innings in those games and Texas lost all three.

7) A 17-year old basketball prospect named Kevin Knox was offered $1.4M to play basketball for a Chinese pro team next year, but declined the offer. He’ll announce his college choice next week; most of top programs are involved.

6) Angel Hernandez is a bad umpire; he just is. You watch him work the plate and there is always a lot of crabbing by players during his games there.

5) Carlos Martínez pitched for the Cardinals in the Bronx Saturday; he lost 3-2. Martinez faced 30 batters; 19 of them either walked (8) or struck out (11).

Martinez threw 118 pitches, 25 were called strikes, 19 were swinging strikes, 16 were fouled off, 47 were balls and 11 were put in play. Of the 11 balls put in play, four were hits. Very odd line for him.

4) Brewers 6, Cubs 3— World Champs have lost four in row, are 6-7 overall, 2-5 at home.

3) Cavaliers 117, Pacers 111— Indiana was down 18 after three quarters, but covered thru the backdoor. Kevin Love was +!7; Cavaliers were -11 with him off the floor.

As I type this, Spurs are up 56-30 over Memphis. Not a lot of competition there.

2) NFL schedule gets released Thursday night, the draft is next week. It is freakin’ April, but the NFL has an amazing ability to stay in the news.

1— Utah Jazz have a problem, with Rudy Gobert out for Game 2 with the Clippers, but this year, Jazz are +102 with Derrick Favors on the floor, if they didn’t play the night before. When they played the night before, Favors was -45. No back/backs in the playoffs, good for Utah.

MLB Daily Line Drive: Tuesday's picks, betting odds and analysis

Darvish has only allowed one earned run in his last two outings and is coming off a stellar seven shutout innings with 10 Ks in his last start in Los Angeles vs. the Angels.

The baseball schedule can be tough to navigate for even a seasoned baseball bettor. We break down all the betting angles for you including picks, trends, weather and analysis to help you handicap the MLB like a pro.

Double-Play Picks

Chicago White Sox at New York Yankees (-190, 7.5)

The Chicago White Sox are not exactly an offensive juggernaught. Coming in to tonight's game they rank No. 21 in baseball with a .231 batting average and they have only popped 11 home runs this season. However, a road game at Yankee Stadium can change everything.

The total for this game has actually dropped from the opening number of 8.5 down to the current number of 7.5. This move is because of the wind direction, which will be blowing in from right field tonight, but a wind strength of only 5-10 miles per hour shouldn't really be a major factor.

The White Sox are throwing a mediocre starter at the Yankees tonight (Miguel Gonzalez - 1-0, 4.22 ERA) and their young, live bats should eat him alive.

Like any time betting an Over involving the Yankees, their dominant late inning relievers cause a little bit of anxiety...but hopefully this game will hit eight runs long before the late innings.

Pick: Over 7.5

Texas Rangers at Oakland Athletics (+115, 7)

It's time for the Andrew Triggs string of successful starts to run out. His weird delivery and very good sinker have produced a pair of wins and an ERA of 0.00 thus far in 2017. But let's be honest, he is not Clayton Kershaw and he is putting up Kershaw-like numbers.

Today, Triggs and the A's host Yu Darvish and the Texas Rangers. Darvish has only allowed one earned run in his last two outings and is coming off a stellar seven shutout innings with 10 strikeouts in his last start in Los Angeles against the Angels.

Don't expect Triggs to fully blow up and give up 10 runs, but Darvish should dominate the A's and come out with a win somewhere in the 3-1 or 4-1 range. Getting Darvish at -130 is too good to pass up.

Pick: Texas -130

Record to date: 5-3

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Mike Leake, St. Louis Cardinals (1-1, 0.60 ERA, $4)

It has been a tough start to the season for the Cardinals, but you can’t put any of the blame on the shoulders of Mike Leake.

Leake has come out of the gates firing. In his first two starts he has pitched 15 innings to the tune of a 0.60 ERA with 13 strikeouts and just one walk. Additionally, batters are hitting just .208 against him this season and he faces a Pirates club that is hitting just .228 as a team.

Slumping: Josh Tomlin, Cleveland Indians (0-2, 18.47 ERA, $-344)

It has been nothing short of a disastrous start to the season for Tomlin, who has managed to pitch just 6.1 innings in his first two starts.

He allowed six runs on seven hits in 4.2 innings in his first start of the season at Arizona and followed that up with by allowing seven runs on eight hits in just 1.2 innings against the White Sox. Plus, batters are hitting a ridiculous .500 off Tomlin this year. He visits the Twins Monday.

Monday’s Top Trends

* The New York Yankees are 8-0 in their last eight overall. Yankees -183 vs. White Sox
* The Under is 9-0 in Marcus Stroman’s last nine starts overall. O/U 8.5 vs. Red Sox
* The Detroit Tigers are 6-0 in the last six meetings against the Tampa Bay Rays. Tigers +105
* The Under is 9-1 in the Minnesota Twins’ last 10 games overall. O/U 9 vs. Indians

Weather to Keep an Eye On

It should be windy and a bit chilly tonight in Minnesota, when the Twins host the Cleveland Indians. Temperatures will be in the low 50’s for the game with a moderate 14-16 mile per hour hitters wind gusting out over the right field fence. Skies will be overcast but there is a minimal chance of precipitation. The total for the game is currently 9.

Ump of the Day

D.J. Reyburn: Reyburn will be calling balls and strikes for tonight’s game in Houston between the Angels and Astros and if recent history means anything that bodes well for the ‘Stros. The home team is 10-3 in the last 13 games (76.9 percent) Reyburn has officiated and 30-22 (57.7 percent) since the start of 2015. Reyburn also has a very low strike rate so far this season at just 60.3 percent. Houston is currently a -163 home favorite with a total of 8.5.
