Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend

13) Idea for a reality TV show: Pro teams do exit interviews with players after each season; would be television gold to see some of them, especially with disgruntled players, or with guys who are delusional about their abilities. Kind of like a postseason Hard Knocks.

For instance, Cowboys/Dez Bryant exit interview in December must’ve been a good one.

12) Los Angeles Angels used nine different starting pitchers in their first 15 games this year, the most by any team in their first 15 games since the 1960 Baltimore Orioles.

11) Monday morning’s 11am Orioles-Red Sox game was postponed late Sunday afternoon, so no need to post your fantasy lineups early Monday. This is first time since 1984 the Patriots Day game was rained out.

It also means I get to sleep later Monday morning ��

10) Odd managing in the Brewers-Mets game Sunday; Mets led 1-0 in top of 5th inning, Brewers had a guy on 3rd with two men out, and pitcher Jhoulys Chacin was due up, you think they’d pinch-hit for him, but Chacin grounded out to shortstop. Since Chacin hit, you assume he’ll pitch the bottom of the 5th inning, right?

Wrong. Milwaukee takes Chacin out after not pinch-hitting for him with the tying run on third base. Go figure. Must be an analytics thing.

9) Boston media will be happy; Angels’ rainout in Kansas City Sunday means that Shohei Ohtani will make his next start against the Red Sox in Anaheim Tuesday night.

8) Six baseball postponements Sunday; the only time in last 20 years with six postponements in one day was September 12, 2008.

7) Oakland starting pitchers have finished the 6th inning in 3 of their 16 games; three times by Sean Manaea, zero times by everyone else.

For the record, the A’s traded Ben Zobrist for Manaea, back when they helped he Royals win the World Series with that trade- now it is paying off for them.

6) Saturday night in Dodger Stadium, Arizona’s Deven Marrero hit a home run, but passed the runner on first base, who was going back to tag up, thinking the ball might be caught.

Play results in a 2-run single for Marrero, but he does not score because he passed a runner, so he was out on the play- that doesn’t happen very often.

5) Matt Harvey hasn’t gotten an out in the 6th inning in any of his starts since May 28, 2017 vs Pittsburgh- thats 11 starts in a row. Harvey is a free agent after this season; good luck there.

4) NFL Draft note: New England drafted a DL/LB with its first pick in five of last six drafts.

3) Pacers 98, Cavaliers 80— Lebron James teams had won their last 21 first round playoff games, but that streak was ended rudely here.

2) Twins had a miserable baseball-free weekend at home, with a foot of snow falling; now they head to Puerto Rico to play a couple of games with the Indians in San Juan.

1) They had 23 inches of snow in Green Bay this weekend, in mid-April. Oy.

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Reynaldo Lopez, Chicago White Sox (0-1, 0.69 ERA, $-270)

Although the Chicago White Sox are not winning Reynaldo Lopez's starts (team win/loss: 0-2) it has certainly been no fault of his. In two outings this season, Lopez has worked 13 innings, owns an ERA of 0.69, a WHIP of 0.85, and an opponent's on-base percentage of a miniscule .229.

Lopez will look to continue his great start to the season as a +130 underdog tonight in Oakland against Daniel Mengden and the A's.

Slumping: Eric Skoglund, Kansas City Royals (0-1, 9.64 ERA, $-106)

Eric Skoglund was supposed to start opposite rookie sensation Shohei Ohtani yesterday, however Mother Nature intervened and he was bumped to Monday in Toronto. Skoglund was banged around for five runs in 4.2 innings of work against the Seattle Mariners in his first start this season and his job doesn't get any easier today against the offensive-minded Blue Jays.

Skoglund and the Royals are +155 road underdogs today with a total set at 9.

Monday's Top Trends

* Rangers are 0-8 in their last eight during Game 1 of a series. +155 today @ Rays.
* Mets are 12-2 in their last 14 games vs. National League East. -170 today vs. Nationals
* Over is 22-3-2 in A's last 27 games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. White Sox/A's total: 8.5.
* Under is 7-1 in the last eight meetings between the Astros and Mariners. HOU/SEA total: 7.5.

Weather Watch

We had another game postponed due to weather again today with the Orioles and Red Sox getting washed out. That makes 11 postponed games across Major league baseball since Friday - something has to be done from a scheduling perspective to prevent this from happening.

Based on the forecast we are seeing at the moment (Monday morning) we shouldn't lose any more games, as any cities seeing rain today should clear up by this evening. Wind, however, will be a factor today as every outdoor game on the schedule will feature wind speeds of at least 10 miles per hour.

Marlins @ Yankees (-300, 8): 15-18 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to left field.
Rockies @ Pirates (-130, 8): 14-16 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to left-center field.
Cardinals @ Cubs (-125, 8.5): 13-16 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to right field.
Nationals @ Mets (-170, 8): 18-20 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to right field.
Phillies @ Braves (+120, 8): 15-18 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to left field.
White Sox @ Athletics (-140, 8.5): 13-16 mile per hour wind blowing OUT to right field.
Dodgers @ Padres (+130, 7.5): 17-21 mile per hour wind blowing IN from left field.
