Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Phil Steele’s top six surprising teams for this college football season

6) UCLA— Are 2-8-1 vs spread in last 11 non-conference games.

5) Marshall— Went 3-9 LY, after a 3-year run of 33-8.

4) Texas— Were 3-6 in Big X LY, but outgained teams by 19.3 yds/game.

3) Oregon— Were 4-8 LY, after a 98-22 run. Have 17 starters back, new coach.

2) TCU— Also has 17 starters back, is #4 experience team in country. 12-3-1 vs spread in last 16 games as a road underdog.

1) Notre Dame— Have 15 starters back; since 2011, they’re 4-10 as a road favorite.

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

13) Will the Warriors visit the White House? Delicate issue in today’s world.

Someone in the media tweeted Monday night that the team had voted “unanimously” to skip a White House visit, but it is unclear whether that is true or not. Clemson’s football team was in Washington DC Monday for their visit after they won the national championship LY.

CEO of the Pittsburgh Penguins said his team will accept, if invited to the White House, but in the NBA, this is a more volatile subject.

12) Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz was saying on TV the other night that when Joe West umpires games behind the plate, occasionally he will call a perfect pitch a ball early in the game, just to see how the pitcher would react, as if to say to the pitcher, “I’m in charge here.”

Smoltz didn’t seem terribly amused telling the story.

11) Speaking of Smoltz, he is a great example of how scouting is an inexact science. He was the 574th player taken in the 1985 draft (22nd round), then he was traded from Detroit to Atlanta on August 12, 1987, in exchange for Doyle Alexander. Detroit needed a pitcher for the stretch drive; they made the playoffs, but lost a Hall of Fame pitcher in the process.

10) In spring of 2016, Wisc-Milwaukee fired basketball coach Rob Jeter, despite fact that he had won 19+ games five of the last seven years- there was internal dissension- the longtime radio announcer later quit and ripped the new athletic director very publicly.

This past season, Milwaukee went 11-24 with its new coach, who somehow just got hired by Butler of the Big East (he is a former Butler assistant), so now Milwaukee will be looking for its third head coach in three years— it is not great to be looking for a new coach just before the July recruiting period.

9) Nick Pratto was the Kansas City Royals’ 1st round draft pick Monday; six short years ago, he hit a walk-off single to win the Little League World Series in Williamsport.

8) Do umpires own houses? No way they’re home much from March 1-October 1, thats seven months right there. Baseball teams are home half of the season, but not umpires- if they’re not married, seems pointless to own a house that you’re rarely in. Condos seem more likely.

7) An 11-year-old quarterback was offered a scholarship by University of Hawaii last weekend. The kid’s older brother played LB for the Rainbow Warriors- his father coached Marcus Mariota at St Louis HS. I mean, the kid doesn’t graduate high school for seven more years.

6) Quote of the Day, part 2, from Rory McIlroy:

“Really? We have 60 yards from left line to right line. You’ve got 156 of the best players in the world here, if we can’t hit it within that avenue, you might as well pack your bags and go home.

These are the widest fairways we’ve ever played in a U.S. Open. Even the first and second cut is another 10 yards on top of that. So if you’ve got 50 or 60 yards to hit into and you’re complaining about the fescue that’s wider than that, I don’t think that’s an issue.”

This was after some players complained about the complained about the length of the rough— it was cut down a little bit on Tuesday.

5) Marlins drafted NC State infielder Joe Dunand Jr in the 2nd round; he is Alex Rodriguez’ nephew. Dunand played SS at NC State, but the Marlins announced him as a 3B.

4) Kid who is a kicker at Central Florida has made 41 videos about what it is like to be a college athlete, and he put them on YouTube. Because the videos got over 10,000 visits, he could sell ads for the videos, but making money off them could jeopardize his amateur status, which seems both childish and hypocritical but that is today’s world.

The NCAA hasn’t gotten involved yet; let’s hope they let the kid do his thing.

3) Brewers called up pitching prospect Brandon Woodruff to start the first game of their twin bill Tuesday in St Louis, but his hamstring tightened up when he was warming up and he was scratched from the start, and went on the DL. Baseball players get hurt a lot.

Not often a guy goes on the major league DL before he ever appears in a game.

2) Cubs 14, Mets 3— Rough night for Mets’ pitcher Zach Wheeler; he faced 14 batters- 8 of them scored.

Cubs batted Anthony Rizzo leadoff; he scored twice and knocked in three runs. Ian Happ had a grand slam and four strikeouts, first big leaguer in two years (Derek Norris) to do that.

1) 28 of 60 players drafted in last year’s NBA Draft were born outside this country; supposed to lot less this year.

MLB Daily Line Drive: Wednesday's Picks, Betting Odds and Analysis

Double-Play Picks

Atlanta Braves at Washington Nationals (-160, 9.5)

The Nationals will look to continue to pad their standing in the National League East as they close out their three-game home set in a rubber match against the division rival Braves on Wednesday afternoon.

It has been high-scoring series thus far, which shouldn’t be a surprise the way Washington hammers the ball all over the field, but it was the Braves taking the opener 11-10, before the Nats responded with a 10-5 win on Tuesday night.

Those were the 10th and 11th times the Nationals have scored 10 runs or more in a game this season and the bats could stay hot in Wednesday’s series finale as Atlanta sends right-hander Julio Teheran to the mound.

Teheran has been dominated by the Nationals over the years, with the Braves going 0-8 in his last eight starts against Washington. The 26-year-old is 0-3 in those eight starts with a 6.11 ERA and a 1.692 WHIP. That includes an outing back on April 19th, where Teheran surrendered seven runs on seven hits in just four innings of work.

Teheran will once again have his hands full with a Nats’ lineup that ranks first in average, second in runs and OPS and fourth in home runs.

Washington counters by sending Tanner Roark to the hill. Roark has been solid for Washington this year going 6-3 with a 3.87 ERA and 1.304 WHIP. The right-hander also has a 4.11 strikeout to walk rate at home.

Pick: Nationals -160

Texas Rangers at Houston Astros (-160, 9.5)

The Rangers and Astros collide in the final game of their three-game series in Houston. The first two games of this series have gone Under the total, today is the day the bats come to play.

Andrew Cashner gets the ball for the Rangers this evening. To say we don't trust Cashner's 2017 pitching numbers is a bit of an understatement. His 3.17 ERA looks good on the surface, but this is a very hittable pitcher starting against a very good offensive lineup. The Astros rank No. 1 in the American League in batting average and rank second (behind the mighty Yankees) in slugging percentage and OPS. Cashner doesn't miss many bats with only 29 strikeouts in 65.1 innings this season. He actually has more walks (30) than strikeouts and the Astros should be able to expose him today.

The Astros will counter with their No. 1 prospect Francis Martes who gets the ball for his second major league appearance and his first major league start. The kid has a live arm, to be sure, but his 2017 numbers have been far less than impressive. His big league debut came against the Angels out of the bullpen last week and he surrendered four hits, four earned runs, two walks and a homerun - tossing 78 pitches in just 3.2 innings of work. And his numbers in AAA this season aren't any better with a 5.29 ERA and 2.103 WHIP in eight starts for Fresno of the Pacific Coast League. Walks are his biggest issue, surrendering 28 bases on balls in only 32.1 innings pitched.

If questionable starting pitching doesn't sway your opinion towards the Over, perhaps the fact that Manny Gonzalez will be calling balls and strikes tonight might do the trick. The Over is 7-0-2 in his last nine games behind the plate.

Pick: Over 9.5

Yesterday's Picks: 1-0-1
Season To Date: 60-52-7

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Edinson Volquez, Miami Marlins (3-7, 3.41 ERA, $-375)

Following up a no-hitter, with seven shutout innings definitely qualifies you as streaking. And that is exactly what Edinson Volquez is doing right now for the Marlins.

Volquez has pitch 16 straight scoreless innings, allowing just three hits, while racking up 18 strikeouts to just four walks. Over his last four starts he has a 1.29 ERA and a 0.75 WHIP. Volquez and the Marlins are -165 home favorites this afternoon versus the A's.

Slumping: Jeremy Hellickson, Philadelphia Phillies (5-4, 4.50 ERA, $689)

On the surface, Hellickson's numbers don't look too terrible, but if you dive a bit deeper the Phillies' right-hander has struggled mightily in his last four outings, with Philadelphia losing three of those four games.

Hellickson has allowed at least three earned runs in each of his last four starts and has pitched to a 6.85 ERA in those contests, with a WHIP of 1.747. Hellickson and the Phillies are +118 home dogs against the visiting Red Sox.

Wednesday's Top Trends

* Under is 5-0 in Edinson Volquez's last five home starts. A's @ Marlins O/U: 9.
* Rockies are 2-11 in the last 13 meetings in Pittsburgh. Rockies -114.
* Over is 6-0 in Rays last six overall. Rays @ Blue Jays O/U: 9.
* Under is 14-3 in Mike Leake's last 17 starts overall. Brewers at Cardinals O/U: 9

Weather To Keep An Eye On

Wednesday's forecast is calling for a beautiful day for baseball at most ball parks, but there are a few spots with slight chances of inclement weather and rain on tap.

In New York, where the Mets are slated to host the Cubs, there will be a moderate 11 mile per hour hitter's wind gusting out to left field (O/U: 9). In Detroit, there is an 11 mile per hour pitcher's wind gusting in from left field for today's Tigers-D-backs game (O/U: 9.5) and there's an 11 mile per hour wind blowing out to left-center field at Target Field in Minnesota when the Twins host the Mariners (O/U: 10.5). There is also a slight chance of thunderstorms in Washington, Chicago and Pittsburgh.

Ump Of The Day

Tom Woodring: Woodring will be behind the plate for today's interleague showdown in Detroit between the Diamondbacks and Tigers and while he was calling his first balls and strikes just back in 2014, since then he has tended to side with the Over. The Over is 31-20 (62 percent) over the course of his career, but more importantly for this game the Over is 7-0 in the last seven interleague matchups he has officiated. The Over is also 4-1 in his games this season when the total is above 8.5. The total for today's game is currently 9.5.
