Rays Up

The Tampa Bay Rays have been red hot lately, winning eight of their past 10 and 16 of the past 19 overall. Unfortunately, they're in the same division as the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees, so their path to the division title is clearly blocked. They're 14 games over .500, but still eight games back of the Oakland Athletics for a postseason spot with just 20 games remaining. In other words, they're still mathematically alive, but they're on life support. They're a dangerous team no one wants to face, including the Cleveland Indians. The Rays took two of three from the Indians from Aug. 31-Sept. 2 in Cleveland, including a game started by RHP Diego Castillo against RHP Carlos Carrasco as a +190 underdog last Sunday.

RHP Corey Kluber will take the ball for the Indians, and he is looking to stay hot. The Indians are 13-4 in Kluber's past 17 starts against American League East Division clubs. In addition, the Tribe is 23-9 in the past 32 road starts and 36-16 in his past 52 while working on four days of rest. The Indians are also 7-1 in his past eight starts on Monday, for whatever that's worth. Cleveland is also 20-7 in his past 27 starts when opening up a new series. The Indians have won 17 of their past 22 overall on the road against right-handed starting pitchers, too, while going 5-2 in their past seven tries on astroturf.

For the Rays, they're 20-7 in their past 27 against teams with a winning record, as they refuse to lose. They're also 19-7 in the past 26 against a right-handed starting pitcher while going 23-7 in their past 30 at Tropicana Field vs. RHP. The team has been hot when Castillo is on the hill, too, going 5-0 in his past five starts, including 4-0 in his past four against teams with an overall winning mark. The Rays are hot against AL Central foes, too, going 6-1 in the past seven, while going 14-3 in the past 17 at home against teams with a winning road record. The 'over' has been the play for both of these teams lately, too, going 7-1 in Kluber's past eight road starts and 17-7-1 in his past 25 outings overall. The over is 4-0 in the past four overall and 5-1 in Tampa's past six at home vs. RHP.

Looking Ahead

Monday, Sept. 10

The Marlins will face the Mets at CitiField, and Miami is well rested after being rained out on Sunday. They could use the rest, as they're 3-8 over the past 11 games, including 0-4 in the past four games. The last time the Marlins were successful on the road was Aug. 19 in Washington. Miami heads into the battle 7-16 across the past 23 inside the division, and they're 1-5 in the past six tries against teams iwth a losing overall record. For the Mets, they're also playing out the string. However, they have come alive inside the division, winning six of their past eight tries against NL East foes. New York is also 9-2 in the past 11 vs. RHP and 6-2 in their past eight at home against righties.The 'under' has hit in six of the past seven meetings at Citi Field, and 6-2-2 in the past 10 meetings in this series.

The Pirates and Cardinals square off at Busch Stadium II in a good pitching matchup between RHP Trevor Williams and RHP Adam Wainwright. St. Louis is hanging around in the playoff picture, while the Bucs have won five in a row and would love to play spoiler to their division mates. The Pirates have won four of the past five inside the NL Central, but they're a dismal 3-9 in their past 12 against teams with an overall winning mark. They're also 3-8 in the past 11 road outings vs. RHP. The Cards have won 21 of the past 30 overall while winning 16 of their past 23 vs. RHP. The under has been the overwhelming trend for both of these teams lately, going 19-6-1 in the past 26 for Pittsburgh and 13-6 in the past 19 for St. Louis. the under is 4-0 in Williams' past four road outings and 15-5-1 in the past 21 inside the Central. The under is 3-0-1 in Waino's past five outings and 8-2-1 in the past 11 at home vs. RHP.

St. Louis has won five of the past six with Wainwright on the hill against Pittsburgh while going 10-1 in the past 11 home starts against the Bucs. The under has hit in four straight in this series and is 4-1-1 in Williams' past six outings against the Cards, too.

The Braves will use LHP Sean Newcomb opposite rookie RHP Dereck Rodriguez in a good pitching matchup in the series opener in Frisco. Atlanta has been red hot on the road against RHP, winning eight of their past nine. They're also 14-4 in their past 18 against teams with a losing record. They have won eight of Newcomb's past 10 against losing clubs, too, including a perfect 6-0 in the past six road starts aginst teams with a losing overall mark. The Giants are 1-4 in D-Rod's past five outings, and 1-4 in his past five at home, too. Pudge's son appears to have hit the wall after a great start to his rookie campaign.

Weather Report

After a soggy weekend it appears the weather should be rather favorable on Monday. The Nationals and Phillies face a 30 percent chance of rain, but they should be more than fine. For the Marlins-Mets, that might be the only game with a decent chance of a delay. The forecast calls for a 60 percent chance of rain, but there is a 100 percent chance most fans wouldn't miss it if this game is never played. All other MLB venues look pleasant.


Tuesday, Sept. 11

The Blue Jays and Red Sox will square off at Fenway Park as LHP Chris Sale toes the slab. Toronto has been horrendous against lefties all season, and they're 6-25 in the past 31 vs. LHP. They're also just 1-5 in the past six inside the division, 2-8 in the past 10 on the road and 1-6 in the past six inside the division. Aaron Sanchez has been competitve, however, and the Jay have been winners in six of his past seven outings while going 4-1 in his past five on five days of rest. The Red Sox have won seven straight starts with Sale on the hill, while going 4-0 in the past four against AL East clubs. They're also 22-7 across his past 29 outings against teams with a losing record. Boston is 13-6 in the past 19 starts by Sale at home, too.

The Brewers and Cubs continue their key NL Central series at Wrigley Field with RHP Jhoulys Chacin squaring off against LHP Jose Quintana. Milwaukee has been hot lately against southpaws, winning six of their past seven vs. LHP. They're in great shape when Chacin is pitching lately, too, as they're 4-1 in the past five road outings with the righty. They're also 18-8 over his past 26 starts and 7-3 in his past 10 starts against teams with a winning record. The Brewers have struggled with him on the hill against divisional foes, however, winning just twice in his past eight tries. The Cubs are 11-4 in their past 15 vs. RHP and 16-5 in Quintana's past 21 at Wrigley Field. The Brewers have won five of the past seven meetings with the Cubs, although Chicago is 5-1 in Q's past six against the Brew Crew.

The Braves will look to keep the Giants down, turning to RHP Mike Foltynewicz. They're 14-4 in their past 18 games against teams with a losing record, including five of Folty's past seven starts against losing sides. However, the Braves have dropped each of his past four outings and six straight against NL West foes. The Giants entered the new week on an eight-game losing streak, while going 0-5 in the past five vs. RHP. San Francisco has also failed in seven straight against teams with a winning record. The under has cashed in 13 of the past 16 for Atlanta against teams iwth a losing record, and the under is 4-1 in the past five starts by Foltynewicz against NL West clubs. The under is also 5-0 in the past five on the road against a team with a losing record.

STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTING PITCHERS

Streaking: Trevor Williams, Pittsburgh Pirates (12-9, 3.15 ERA, $336)

Trevor Williams must be on a great run right now to be flagged as our Streaking Starting Pitcher on a day that also has Jacob deGrom on the board - but here we are. Over his last nine starts for the Pirates, he owns a team win/loss record of 6-3, an ERA of 0.66, and a WHIP of 1.061 - and the Under has cashed in all nine games.

Williams will look to keep the good times rolling this evening as a +120 road underdog against Adam Wainwright and the host St. Louis Cardinals.

Slumping: Francisco Liriano, Detroit Tigers (4-9, 4.90 ERA, $-1,200)

It must be tough to be an effective starting pitcher with a rebuilding team. That's exactly the situation that veteran lefty Francisco Liriano finds himself in, and he isn't exactly excelling in that role. Liriano is traditionally a very streaky pitcher and he's in the midst of a bad streak at the moment. Over his last five starts he owns a win/loss record of 1-3, an ERA of 7.17, and a WHIP of 2.0625.

Liriano gets the assignment tonight at home as a massive +285 underdog against Justin Verlander and the visiting Houston Astros.


Stormy New York

The forecast in Queens is calling for rain for most of the day, but there is a slight chance of the wet stuff stopping this evening. If the rain does stop long enough to get the game in tonight between the Mets and the visting Nationals, there is a 15 mile per hour wind in the forecast blowing in from right field.

In the Double-Play Picks section above we are riding the deGrom first five inning train, once again. However, with the wind blowing in and deGrom on the mound don't hesitate to take the full game Under 7 and the Marlins team total Under 2.5.


Mile High Under

The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Colorado Rockies combined for 15 runs yesterday afternoon to go against the Rockies' current streak of Under results at Coors Field. With last night's Over, the Under is now 25-8-1 in the last 34 games at Coors and we expect that trend to get back on the winning side tonight with the Arizona Diamondbacks in town.

The visitors will send Zack Godley to the mound and he comes in with a very good history in the Mile High City. In three career starts at Coors Field, Godley owns a team win/loss record of 3-0 with an ERA of 2.89 and a WHIP of 1.125. German Marquez gets the home start for the Rox and the Under has cashed in his last eight starts overall and he, like most of the Rockies' starting rotation, has been pitching great at home with an ERA of 2.43 and a WHIP of 1.14 in his last five starts in Denver.

This game has been pegged with another high total of 10. Take the Under tonight with confidence.


Wainwright's Return

We don't usually like betting on a game involving a starting pitcher returning from a lenthy injury absense, but in the case of today's return of Cardinals' starting pitcher Adam Wainwright we love the fade in this spot. Wainwright has looked very good during his rehab outings against minor leaguers, but the big leagues are a different animal. We would expect a pitch limit of around 90 pitches tonight and then Wainwright will be handing the ball off to a bullpen that has been below average on the season with an ERA of 4.26, and over their last 10 games the bullpen ERA balloons to 4.91.

Most importantly, is that the Pirates will be starting Trevor Williams. We outlined his recent exploits above in the Streaking Starting Pitcher section and, to put it quite simply, he's been the best pitcher in baseball over the last two months.

Take a good hard look at the Pirates as +120 underdogs this evening.

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Mike Fiers, Oakland Athletics (11-6, 3.36 ERA, $1805)

This is what the Yankees are going to have to deal with in the American League Wild Card game. Since coming over to the A's, from the Detroit Tigers, Mike Fiers owns a team win/loss record of 6-0, and ERA of 2.94, and a WHIP of 0.9505. Have fun with that "Baby Bombers".

Fiers and the Athletics are big -185 road favorites this evening in Baltimore against Alex Cobb and the 102-loss Orioles.

Slumping: Marco Gonzales, Seattle Mariners (12-9, 4.32 ERA, $293)

As the Seattle Mariners continue to slide down the standings table in the American League, lefty Marco Gonzales continues to regress after a great start to the season. The M's have lost Gonzales' last four starting assignments and in those four outings he owns an ERA of 10.35 to go along with a WHIP of 2.05.

"Gonzo" will look to get things back on track tonight as a big -220 home favorite against Bryan Mitchell and the San Diego Padres.

Tuesday’s six-pack

Six interesting spreads for this week’s college football:

— Boston College (-6) @ Wake Forest

— Miami Fla (-10) @ Toledo— Why are the Hurricanes in Ohio?

— Florida State (-3.5) @ Syracuse

— Rutgers @ Kansas (-3)— Jayhawks are favored to win???? Wow

— Boise State @ Oklahoma State (-3)

— LSU @ Auburn (-9.5)

Quote of the Day
“The only thing that I thought was weird, when we came back in the second time … we’d been waiting for an hour, maybe hour and a half, and I just saw all these Mission BBQ boxes out. And I’m going, ‘We’re playing a game.’ I think it was 5 o’clock. It was crazy, considering our guys had been in there and had their pregame meal at 10.”
Dolphins coach Adam Gase, talking about his team eating during the second lightning delay Sunday

Tuesday’s quiz
Who was the Detroit Lions’ QB last time they won a playoff game?

Monday’s quiz
Aaron Rodgers played his college football at California.

Sunday’s quiz
Poulan Weed Eater Bowl used to be played in Shreveport, LA every New Year’s Eve; it is still played there, but goes by a different name now.

***********************

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

13) IMG Academy is a prep school in Florida that specializes in sports training.

Of the 130 Division I-A football teams this fall, five starting QB’s are IMG graduates:

— Zack Annexstad, Minnesota
— Deondre Francois, Florida State
— Kellen Mond, Texas A&M
— Shea Patterson, Michigan
— Art Sitkowski, Rutgers

I’d say that is impressive for a high school, but IMG is no ordinary high school; its a factory for creating high-level athletes, which they do very well.

12) So I’m in line at the bank Friday and a guy in front of me is in line, holding a fishing pole; he gets to the teller’s window and puts the pole on the counter, while he gets a wad of cash.

Best that I know, and I’ve lived here my whole life, the closest body of water where fishing is possible is two miles away. Maybe he needed the cash for a Uber to get to the pond.

11) Then I go up the road for lunch, as I walk into the bar, one of the waiters compliments my sneakers, an old (but rarely worn) pair of Nikes that I recently found buried under a pile of stuff (not much gets thrown out at Armadillo World HQ).

Turns out this person knew from looking at my sneakers that they were made in 2005, and that I had taken good care of them. Not really, I just misplaced them and forgot about them, but they are still very comfortable, 13 years later.

10) Not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but Washington Nationals’ teenager Juan Soto has batted cleanup in eight games this season; he is the first teenager to bat cleanup in a major league game since Houston’s Cesar Cedeno, in 1970.

9) Basketball Hall of Fame does their induction weekend on first week of the NFL season, which means it gets totally overlooked; too bad. Wouldn’t late August be a better time?

8) Roommates in their college days at LSU: Phillies P Aaron Nola, Astros 3B Alex Bregman. Couple of All-Stars now.

7) Phillies are fading down the stretch; is it because their front office has lousy people skills? Few weeks ago, they sent starting pitcher Zach Eflin down to AAA for 10 days, simply because they could do that, keep him in turn because of a doubleheader, then bring him back after ten days. It cost Eflin $20,000 and nine days of major league service time.

Since that happened, Eflin is 1-3, 9.26 in five starts.

6) We talked last week about the two Detroit Tigers’ TV announcers who got into a scuffle in the TV booth after the game Tuesday; turns out they’ve both been suspended for the rest of the season. Fact of the matter is, I would fire both of them, since they’re not very good anyway.

5) Alabama QB Jalen Hurts will likely redshirt this season; thanks to a new NCAA rule, Hurts can play in four games this season and still redshirt.

Not sure how that changes anything, since he and Tua Tagovailoa would both still at Alabama next year, but I guess Hurts could stay five years and start again when he is a 5th-year senior, after Tagovailoa graduates, unless Alabama recruits a younger QB in 2020 to start this mess all over again.

4) Hall of Fame defensive end Jason Taylor is now defensive coordinator at St Thomas Aquinas HS down in Florida, one of the better high school programs in the Sunshine State.

3) There are 3,123 entrants in the Westgate SuperContest; at $1,500 a pop, that means the prize pool is a cool $4,684,500. Whoever wins will bank over a million bucks.

That said, 19 entrants didn’t put picks in for Week 1- at $1,500 a pop, thats $28,500 down the proverbial drain.

2) After returning from his injury Sunday night, Aaron Rodgers was 17-23 for 273 yards, three TDs; he was 3-7 for 13 yards before the injury. Sometimes life makes no sense.

1) When Eastern Michigan upset Purdue 20-19 Saturday, it was only their second win in 40 football games against Big 14 opponents.

Hitter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- Active yet again and keeps winning... The Athletics are now 16-0 SU in franchise history as a 130-plus favorite after a game in which Matt Chapman was hitless in at least three at bats.

Starter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Dodgers are 0-7 SU with Hyun Jin Ryu after August. The Dodgers were the favorite in each of their last three in this spot, but they never led in all three.

Posted on September 11, 2018Leave a comment on Wednesday’s 6-pack, Quote, Quiz of the Day

***********************

Wednesday’s List of 13: Mid-week musings……

13) Monday, guy at SouthPoint Casino in Las Vegas wagered $40,600 on the Lions to win on the money line against the Jets…….meaning he risked $40,600 to win $14,000. All Detroit had to do was win a game they were favored in by 6.5 points.

Oy.

12) Wonder how many Lions fans wonder why Jim Caldwell was fired? He went 36-28 in four years as the Lions’ head coach, made the playoffs twice, went 9-7 the last two years- why did they fire him??? Maybe its premature panicking, but its a valid question.

Before Monday night, last time the Jets scored a defensive TD was in 2013.

11) To me, Monday night NFL doubleheaders would be better than having Thursday night NFL games; let the colleges have Thursday night.

10) I’m thinking that football stats should somehow give credit to the QB/WR for yardage they gain via pass interference penalties. Make it a separate category but it should be accounted for.

9) NFL coaches in their first year with their team went 0-7 in Week One, 1-6 vs spread.

8) There were 38 interceptions in Week One of the NFL season; six of those were run back for touchdowns.

Case Keenum threw seven INT’s all of last season; he threw three against Seattle Sunday.

7) NFL injury stuff:
— Carolina TE Greg Olsen re-fractured his foot, is out at least a month.
— Tennessee TE Delanie Walker (ankle) is out for the year.
— Seattle WR Doug Baldwin has a partially torn MCL.
— Rams’ PR/KR Pharoh Cooper (ankle) will miss several weeks.

6) College football schedule changes for this week:
— BC-Wake Forest moved up to 5:30 Thursday
— UCF-North Carolina PPD
— West Virginia-NC State PPD
— East Carolina-Virginia Tech PPD
— Ohio-Virginia, moved from Charlottesville to Nashville, TN

5) In his career, Ben Roethlisberger is 21-2-1 against Cleveland; Tyrod Taylor was the 14th QB to start against the Steelers in those 24 games. The only two QB’s to beat Big Ben for the Browns?

Brian Hoyer and Brady Quinn.

4) Astros’ reliever Brad Peacock was sent back to Houston with hand, foot and mouth disease; lot of that going around the major leagues this season.

3) The jumbotron in George Washington U’s basketball arena collapsed onto the floor Tuesday, creating a pretty large mess in the gym.

2) A’s pitcher Sean Manaea is having his shoulder operated on and probably won’t be back until 2020.

1) Rounders is probably my favorite movie ever (other than Moneyball, which is in a separate category); the great poker movie opened in theaters 20 years ago Tuesday, but if you like playing cards or gambling in general, it remains a classic.
