Wednesday's Diamond Notes
Kevin Rogers

Hottest team: Athletics (8-2 last 10)

It’s amazing to think that with less than three weeks left in the regular season that Oakland owns more wins (88) than seven playoff teams from last season (Indians, Twins, Cubs, Dodgers, Rockies, Diamondbacks, and Nationals). The A’s continued their dominance of the lowly Orioles by beating Baltimore for the fourth time in four tries in Tuesday’s 3-2 victory at Camden Yards. Oakland picked up its fifth consecutive victory overall, while winning for the 12th time in the past 17 contests.

The A’s send out right-hander Liam Hendriks to the mound tonight for his fourth start of the season. Hendriks hasn’t lasted past the second inning in any of his first three starts as Oakland has decided to use a bullpen by committee approach with the Australian hurler. Since Baltimore swept Toronto at home in late August, the Orioles have lost nine of their past 10 games.

Coldest team: Giants (0-10 last 10)

While Oakland is closing in a playoff berth, its friends on the other side of the Bay are counting the days until the season end. The Giants are riding a 10-game skid following Tuesday’s 4-1 defeat to the Braves as the road team is now 5-0 in five matchups this season. San Francisco’s offense has produced exactly one run in each of its last four games at AT&T Park, all losses, while scoring three runs or less nine times during this cold stretch.

The Giants try to avoid their third consecutive sweep this afternoon as southpaw Derek Holland takes the mound. Holland has allowed five earned runs in his last five starts, although the Giants have dropped his last two outings to the Mets and Brewers. The Braves have extended their lead over the Phillies in the NL East to 6 ½ games as Atlanta has lost four of its past five games to end a road trip of at least six games.

Hottest pitcher: Blake Snell, Rays (18-5, 2.06 ERA)

The AL Cy Young race will come down to the finish as Snell has put himself in a great position. The Tampa Bay southpaw has won six consecutive starts, including a 5-3 win over Cleveland at Progressive Field on September 1. Snell has been especially dominant at home by winning nine of 10 decisions at Tropicana Field, while owning a 1.23 ERA. The Rays look to bounce back after seeing their 12-game home winning streak snapped by the Indians last night in a 2-0 defeat.

Coldest pitcher: Jake Odorizzi, Twins (5-10, 4.57 ERA)

Odorizzi has struggled against two division leaders in his past two starts by allowing eight earned runs in 10 innings of losses to the Indians and Astros on the road. Odorizzi returns home for tonight’s start, but faces another likely playoff squad in the Yankees. Since the start of July, the Twins are 5-1 in Odorizzi’s last six outings at Target Field. However, Odorizzi struggled in two starts against the Yankees last season as a member of the Rays by losing a pair of starts at home.

Biggest OVER run: Mets (5-0-1 last six)

Although it was only a 5-3 game last night, the Mets cashed the OVER on a 6 ½ total in a defeat to Miami as heavy favorites with ace Jacob deGrom on the mound. New York’s pitching staff has allowed at least four runs in four consecutive games, while the Mets have seen totals of seven or less in each of the past five contests. The Mets and Marlins hook up for a double-header at Citi Field as Zack Wheeler and Jason Vargas are the two starters for New York. Wheeler has tossed at least seven innings in six of his last seven outings, while Vargas has cashed the UNDER in five straight home starts.

Biggest UNDER run: Mariners (5-0 last five)

Seattle’s meltdown towards a postseason berth was solidified in Tuesday’s 2-1 loss to San Diego. Not only did the Mariners lose to the last-place Padres for the third time in three tries, but Seattle’s offense produced three runs or fewer for the seventh time in eight games. The M’s have cashed the UNDER in six of seven games on their current homestand, while the lone OVER against Baltimore hit on a 7 ½ total in a 5-3 loss. Seattle will try to salvage its series with San Diego this afternoon as Wade LeBlanc heads to the hill for the M’s. The UNDER trend may turn around as the OVER has cashed in each of LeBlanc’s last three starts at Safeco Field, but the M’s have lost each of those three contests.

Matchup to watch: Diamondbacks vs. Rockies

The three-horse race in the NL West continues to be a mystery on who will come out on top. The Dodgers have lost the last two games to the Reds on the road, while Colorado and Arizona have split the first two games of their series at Coors Field. Following Colorado’s blowout on Monday, the D-backs bounced back on Tuesday in a 6-3 win behind Zack Greinke as the Rockies lead the Dodgers by 1 ½ games and own a 2 ½-game edge over Arizona.

Patrick Corbin takes the mound for Arizona as the southpaw is winless in his last two road starts. The left-hander beat the Braves his last time out to pick up his 11th victory on the season, while Arizona owns a 2-0 record in Corbin’s two outings against Colorado. The D-backs improved to 3-6 in the last nine road games with Tuesday’s victory, but Arizona needs every win down the stretch as its next four series come against the Astros, Cubs, Rockies, and Dodgers.

Jon Gray counters for Colorado, as the Rockies have won 10 of the past 12 starts made by the right-hander. Gray is facing the D-backs for the first time since the opening series of the season in Phoenix as he allowed three earned runs in four innings of an 8-2 loss. The Rockies have captured five of Gray’s last six starts at Coors Field, but Colorado lost to Los Angeles in a 4-2 setback in his past home outing last Friday.

Betcha didn’t know: The Phillies put together a terrific turnaround this season, but Philadelphia is falling apart at the wrong time. After getting swept in a double-header by the Nationals on Tuesday, Philadelphia fell to 6-16 in the last 22 games. Ace Aaron Nola heads to the hill tonight opposite Washington’s Stephen Strasburg as the Phillies have lost each of Nola’s last two home starts since beginning the season at 12-0 in the right-hander’s outings at Citizens Bank Park.

Biggest public favorite: Red Sox (-245) vs. Blue Jays

Biggest public underdog: Rangers (+155) at Angels

Biggest line move: White Sox (-120 to -134) at Royals

Rock Steady

The Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies will continue their series on Wednesday at Coors Field, jockeying for position in the National League West while also trying to keep pace in the Wild-Card race, too. LHP Patrick Corbin will work for Arizona while RHP Jon Gray starts for Colorado. The under is an impressive 9-1 in the past 10 road outings for the D-Backs, while going 7-1-1 in their past nine road outings against a right-handed starter. The Snakes are also 13-3-1 in the past 17 road outings against teams with a winning record and 13-3 in the past 16 against National League West foes.

The under has also cashed an impressive 7-1-1 in Corbin's past nine road outings, while going 5-2 in his past seven against divisional foes and 5-2 in the past seven against teams with a winning record. It doesn't seem normal, but the under is the trend for Colorado lately. The under is 12-3 in Colorado's past 15 at home vs. LHP while going 20-7-1 in their past 28 games at Coors Field overall. In addition, the under is a perfect 9-0 in the past nine home starts by Gray against a team with a winning overall record, while going under in four straight starts by Gray vs. NL West clubs. Overall, the under is 25-10 in the past 35 for the Rockies inside the division. The under is also 4-1 in Corbin's past five road outings against the Rockies.

In addition, as an extra bonus, we'll look at the sides, too. The Diamondbacks have won seven of Corbin's past nine outings, and they're an impressive 7-3 across the past 10 road outings. However, the D-Backs are also 5-11 over his past 16 outings on the road against teams iwth a winning record. They're also a dismal 2-8 in the past 10 starts while working on four days of rest. Arizona heads into the game just 2-5 in the past seven against division foes, and they're 2-6 in the past eight vs. RHP. They're also just 2-7 in the past nine against teams with a winning overall mark.

For whatever reason, Coors Field seems to agree with Gray. The Rockies have managed wins in 10 of his past 12 outings, while going a very impressive 4-1 in his past five against NL West foes, 5-1 in his past six starts at home and 7-1 over his past eight against teams with a winning overall record. They're also 10-4 in his past 14 starts at Coors against tems with a winning overall mark. For the Rockies, they're 12-5 in the past 17 vs. LHP, while going 7-3 in the past 10 inside the division. They're also 13-6 in the past 19 at home against southpaws, too.

Looking Ahead

Wednesday, Sept. 12

Indians RHP Carlos Carrasco and Rays LHP Blake Snell will square off in the series finale in a very good pitching matchup. The under is 5-1 in Cleveland's past six on the road against southpaws, while going 6-2-1 in their past nine overall against lefties. The under is also 12-5-1 in Carrasco's past 18 starts overall against teams with a winning overall record. The over is 4-1 in Tampa's past five home games vs. RHP, while going 4-1 in Snell's past five at home against teams with a winning record. However, the under is 7-2-1 in the past 10 starts by Snell, and 4-0-1 in his past five against AL Central foes. The under is 6-2-1 in the past nine meetings between these teams heading into Wednesday's game, while gong 8-1 in the past nine meetings in St. Petersburg.

The Padres and Mariners do battle at Safeco Field in a battle of southpaws Joey Lucchesi and Wade LeBlanc. The under is 4-1 in Lucchesi's past five road contests, while going 4-1 in his past five away from home against teams with a winning overall record. In addition, the under is 12-5-1 in the past 18 for San Diego against AL West foes. The under is also 4-0-1 in the past five interleague road games, while going 6-1 in the past seven against teams with a winning overall mark. However, the over is 5-2 in the rookie's past seven overall. For Seattle, the under is a perfect 5-0 in the past five outings, and 5-0 in their past five at home, too. Over the past 30 at Safeco for the Mariners, the under is 20-9-1 against southpaws. The under is 7-3 in his past 10 starts overall, and 6-2 in the past eight against teams with a losing overall mark, too. In this series, the over is 5-2-1 in the past eight meetings, but one of those unders was on Tuesday night.

Yankees RHP Luis Severino and Twins RHP Jake Odorizzi will square off at Target Field. It's been all about the over lately with Severino on the hill. The over is 10-2 in his past 12 starts, while going 16-5 in the past 21 starts against AL Central foes and 5-2 in his past seven on the road. In addition, the over is 5-1 in New York's past six against Central clubs, and 5-1 in the past six against teams with a losing overall record. For Minnesota, the under is 5-1 in Odorizzi's past six starts overall, but the over is 4-0 in the past four against AL East clubs.

Thursday, Sept. 13

Red Sox LHP Eduardo Rodriguez will work against Blue Jays RHP Sam Gaviglio. The 'under' has connected in seven straight outings for Rodriguez, including the most recent start against Toronto on July 14 before his injury. The under is 5-0 in the past five at home for E-Rod, while going 24-9-1 in his past 34 against AL East clubs. For the Jays, the under is 4-1 in Gaviglio's past five starts on the rad, but the over is 5-2 in his past seven road starts against a team with a winning record.

For the Halos, the under has cashed in five of the past six against AL West clubs, while going 4-1 in the past five against winning teams. However, the over is 6-2-1 in the past nine meetings in Anaheim, while going 9-4-1 in the past 14 meetings overall in this series.

Pirates RHP Chris Archer will work against the Brewers on the road. Since coming over from the Rays at the MLB Trade Deadline, the total is 3-3-1, with a push last time out. The first time he faced Milwaukee at Miller Park on Aug. 26, he was hammered for six earned runs, seven hits and two walks with five strikeouts over four innings in a loss as the 'over' connected.

Giants RHP Chris Stratton is expected to face Rockies LHP Tyler Anderson at AT&T Park in San Francisco. The 'under' has cashed in thre in a row for the Giants with Stratton on the hill, as he has given up just six earned runs over 19 innings across the past three starts. As far as Anderson, the 'over' has hit in each of his past three, including his most recent start against San Francisco. He allowed three earned runs, six hits and no walks over 5 1/3 innings against the Giants, but the game ended in a 9-8 victory at Coors on Sept. 3 in a bullpen collapse on both sides.

The first game on the MLB betting board this afternoon has the top Over umpire calling balls and strikes. Over is 18-5 in Chris Cuccione's games BHP this season, and nine of his last 10 games have cashed for Over bettors.

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Wade LeBlanc, Seattle Mariners (8-3, 3.56 ERA, $765)

Although the Mariners are in a bit of a tailspin in the American League West, it hasn't been because of Wade LeBlanc's work on the mound. The crafty lefty is 8-3 with a 3.56 ERA for the season, but over his last three starts he's been even better with a team win/loss record of 2-1 and an ERA of 0.47 (only one run allowed in 19 innings of work).

LeBlanc and the Mariners are -150 home favorites this evening against Joey Lucchesi and the San Diego Padres.

Slumping: Andrew Cashner, Baltimore Orioles (4-14, 4.89 ERA, $-727)

Things haven't exactly gone the Baltimore Orioles' way in 2018, and their starting pitching can certainly been one of the blaming points. Veteran starting pitcher Andrew Cashner can absorb some of that blame with a team win/loss record of 8-19 and an ERA of 4.89 for the full season. He's been especially bad in his last four outings with a team win/loss of 0-4, an ERA of 5.87, and a WHIP of 1.8261.

Cashner and the O's are +165 underdogs at home this evening against Liam Hendriks and the Oakland Athletics.


Early Offense With Guccione?

Chris Guccione will be calling balls and strikes this afternoon in the first game on today's betting board between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. Guccione is the top Over umpire in Major League Baseball this season with an Over record of 18-5 (78.26 percent) and has cashed Over tickets in nine of his last 10 games behind the plate.

The total for this afternoon is current at 8.5 or 9, depending on your book, but either number should be a safe Over wager.


The Price Is Right

The Toronto Blue Jays and the Boston Red Sox will play the second game of their three-game series at Fenway Park this evening. The Sox took Game 1 by a score of 7-2 and we are expecting much more of the same tonight.

Boston has taken down 11 of the last 13 meetings with Toronto and in those 11 victories they have covered the -1.5 runline every time, with an average margin of victory of 3.54 runs.

With Jays starter Aaron Sanchez still re-learning how to pitch and Red Sox hurler David Price enjoying a tremendous season - especially at home where he has a team win/loss record of 11-3 to go along with an ERA of 3.08 and a WHIP of 1.09 - take the Sox on the -1.5 runline at -130 and sprinkle on the alternative runline of -2.5 at +120.

Diamond Trends - Wednesday
Vince Akins

SU Play ON Trend of the Day:

-- You have seen this one before! The Red Sox are 18-0 SU after a game as a home favorite in which their bullpen allowed multiple runs and it is not a series opener. Boston is 16-0 SU in this spot this season.

SU Play AGAINST Trend of the Day:

-- This one has appeared in this spot multiple times this season. The Tigers are 0-23 SU as a home dog after a game in which they had fewer team-left-on-base than their opponent and it is post All-Star break.

Hitter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Astros are 15-0 SU since 2017 as a road 130-plus favorite after a game in which Alex Bregman was hitless in at least three at bats, including 9-0 SU this season.

Starter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Red Sox are 17-0 SU with David Price as a home favorite when he went six-plus innings gave up three or fewer runs in his last start.

Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

NFL receivers who were targeted the most in Week 1:

19— Julio Jones, Atl

17— Michael Thomas, NO

16— Antonio Brown, Pitt

15— Landry (Mia), Tate (Det), Beckham (NYG)

13— Gordon (LAC), Davis (Tenn)

12— Thielen (Minn), Cook (Oak)

**********

Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud…….

13) How do you handicap Week 2 NFL games; how much weight do you give to Week 1 games? In weeks 2-3 you have to make a leap of faith to believe what you just saw. Once you’ve seen three games, then you can start making some judgements.

— Are the Jets as the good as they looked? Tampa Bay? Baltimore?
— Is Detroit as awful as it looked? New Orleans? Buffalo?

Thats what makes handicapping so interesting, taking the next step when you’re not sure if you’ll be stepping on solid ground or quicksand.

12) Brewers 5, Cubs 1— Curtis Granderson had a homer, triple for Milwaukee, which is only a game behind Chicago in the NL Central.

11) Mets 13, Marlins 0— Start of scheduled doubleheader was delayed by rain for over five hours; they only played one game, will play twinbill today instead.

10) Lot of people complain about the DH, but it isn’t going anywhere; DH’s make lot more money than the average guy (think Pujols, Victor Martinez, JD Martinez), so the players’ union ain’t never going to agree to get rid of it. Forget about it.

9) Dodgers are 79-67 this season, but 1-6 against the Cincinnati Reds, 2-4 against the Marlins, which isn’t good when you’re trying to make the playoffs. Have to beat up non-contenders.

8) Edwin Encarnación is the only player with 30+ HRs in each of the last seven seasons.

7) It is important to take statistics in context:
— Jacob deGrom is 8-9, despite having a 1.71 ERA
— Lucas Giolito is 10-10, with a 5.76 ERA.

Go figure.

6) NFL teams averaged 5.39 yards per play in Week 1; the league averaged 5.29 ypp LY.

5) NBA season isn’t all that far away; Russell Westbrook had knee surgery recently, will be evaluated again in about a month.

4) From 1920-2017, Cleveland Indians had only two games where they had only one hit with that hit being a home run- Jose Ramirez has done it twice himself this season.

3) Colorado Rockies are 22-4 in last 26 games started by Freeland or Marquez.

2) I was surfing thru NBA.com yesterday; they have a page dedicated to “hustle leaders”, tracking loose balls recovered, deflections, and “screen assists”, which I assume are hoops scored because the scorer came off that person’s screen.

As a former college basketball manager, stuff like this makes me smile, because the little things these statistics track are the stuff that make the big things happen.

1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they don’t):
NL: Atlanta-Chicago-Colorado. Wild Card: Cardinals @ Brewers
AL: Boston-Cleveland-Houston. Wild Card: A’s @ Bronx
