Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Quick thoughts on the 2018 NFL schedule

Thoughts/comments on the NFL schedule release:
13) Week 1 Monday night doubleheader: Jets @ Lions, then Rams @ Raiders.

Super Bowl champion Eagles open on Thursday Sept 6 at home against Atlanta.

12) NFL went traditional rival-heavy for its Thanksgiving Day slate: Chicago-Detroit; Washington-Dallas; Atlanta-New Orleans. Good set of games.

This is third year in row the Redskins play on Thanksgiving Day.

11) Only four divisional games in Week 1, which is a good idea. Every game in Week 17 is a divisional game.

10) There is a Week 16 Monday night game on Christmas Eve; Broncos @ Raiders.

9) A sign the NFL doesn’t think you’re good: Miami Dolphins have a Week 8 Thursday night game in Houston- their other 15 games appear to be 1:00 Sunday games. If you NEVER play a 4:25 Sunday game, the league office isn’t too optimistic about your chances.

8) Rams-Chiefs in Mexico City on Monday night, November 19. Bye week the next week for both teams, which is weird but good for the team, having a bye week over Thanksgiving.

7) Chargers visit Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Denver in December, three potential cold weather games. Rams go to Chicago December 9, which will probably be a cruddy weather day.

6) Three teams have the unenviable “3 road games in 3 weeks” scenario:
— Ravens go to Pittsburgh-Cleveland-Tennessee in weeks 4-6
— Rams go to Seattle-Denver-San Francisco in weeks 5-7
— Saints go to Dallas-Tampa Bay-Carolina in weeks 13-15, but the Week 13 game is a Thursday game so they’ll have extra rest in there before the Bucs’ game.

11 teams have three home games in a row.

5) For first time since 2009, Bears open the season at Lambeau Field against the Packers, in the Week 1 Sunday night game.

4) Giants play four road games in domes, which at first glance is most in the league.

3) Speaking of domes, Lions/Saints both play three road games in domes, giving them only five outdoor games apiece this season.

2) In next few days, Las Vegas oddsmakers will have spreads for every game thru Week 16. Season over/under win totals don’t come out until after next week’s draft.

1) Here are the Week 1 NFL spreads from the Westgate SuperBook:

Falcons @ Philadelphia (-3.5, 47.5)
Steelers (-7, 48) @ Cleveland
49ers @ Minnesota (-4.5, 47.5)
Bengals @ Indianapolis (-1, 47.5)
Bills @ Ravens (-3.5, 42)
Jaguars (-4, 44.5) @ Giants
Buccaneers @ New Orleans (-7.5, 52.5)
Texans @ New England (-7, 51)
Titans (-2.5, 47) @ Miami
Chiefs @ LA Chargers (-3, 48.5)
Seahawks @ Denver (-2.5, 42)
Cowboys @ Carolina (-2.5, 45)
Redskins @ Arizona (-1, 45)
Bears @ Green Bay (-9, 48.5)
Jets @ Detroit (-6, 44)
Rams (even, 49.5) @ Oakland

Friday, April 20

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Justin Verlander, Houston Astros (2-0, 1.35 ERA, $-20)

There are a lot of good pitchers taking the mound Friday, but aside from the aforementioned duo, Verlander is the hottest of the bunch. The Astros bats failed to show up in his last outing where the only hit he gave up in eight innings was a solo home run to Robinson Chirinos in a 3-1 loss to the Rangers. (The Astros were -320 faves, hence his negative dollar amount).

The change of scenery has worked wonder for the veteran right-hander. In addtion to a stellar ERA, he has a WHIP of 0.75 and has 34 strikeouts to just five walks this season, while opponents have just a .218 OBP against him. The Astros are 6-1 in his last seven road starts, but the line for tonight's game at teh White Sox is currently off the board with no starter announced for Chicago, but expect it to be big.

Slumping: Kendal Graveman, Oakland Atheltics (0-3, 9.87 ERA, $-224)

2018 has not started the way Graveman would have hoped.The A's young lefty has been rocked early on, giving up at least four runs in all four of his starts, with a WHIP over 2.00. He's also struggled to keep the ball in the park, giving up six home runs already this season.

That's probably not a recipe for success against the unfathomably hot Boston Red Sox. Graveman and the A's are currently +121 home dogs for tonight's game.

Friday's Top Trends

* Under is 9-1-1 in the last 11 meetings between the Indians and Orioles in Baltimore. O/U: 8.
* Blue Jays are 6-0 in Marco Estrada's last six road starts vs. Yankees. TOR +168.
* Over is 11-1 in the last 12 meetings between the Twins and Rays in Tampa Bay. O/U: 7.5.
* Royals are 3-13 this season. -107 @ DET.
* Mets are 4-0 in Syndergaards first four starts this season. -136 @ ATL.
* Cardinals are 11-0 in Michael Wacha's last 11 starts vs. Reds. STL -205.
* Over is 5-0 in Padres last five games overall. O/U: 8.5 @ ARI.
* Over is 9-1-1 in Red Sox last 11 overall. O/U: 9 @ OAK

Ump of the Day

Mike Estabrook: Home teams have enjoyed seeing Estabrook behind the plate lately, with teams in the home clubhouse 7-2 in the last nine games he has officaited. That includes 2-1 in 2018 where the home team has an average margin of vicotry of 1.67, earning bettors $144. That'll make the Brewers happy, as they'll be hosting the Marlins toinght with Estabrook calling balls and strikes. The Brewers are currently -157.
