Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Happy Canada Day, everyone!!!!

13) Modern baseball; Friday night in Oakland, the Indians brought in lefty Oliver Perez to face a lefty hitter with a man on second. Predictably, the A’s sent up a righty hitter instead and Terry Francona ordered the righty hitter intentionally walked.

With another righty up next, Francona took Perez out and brought a righty in, creating the unique situation where a pitcher is removed from the game without throwing a pitch or even a pickoff throw— technically, the intentional walk counts as a batter faced.

12) As the owner of a fantasy baseball team, I try and find players wherever/whenever; Marlins brought up a pitcher named Pablo Lopez to make his MLB debut Saturday.

Lopez starts the game by striking out Brandon Nimmo on three pitches; I scramble to get to MILB.com to look up his minor league history. Before I find his page, Jose Bautista homers to left field, then Michael Conforto gets a hit. My enthusiasm wanes.

11) Lopez is 22 years old. looks like he was rushed to the majors; this was his first season in AA, and he was really good, going 1-2, 0.62 in eight starts in the AA Southern League.

So the Marlins promoted him to AAA and he was 1-1, 3.38 in four starts there. 62.1 IP above A ball is a little bit fast to get to the big leagues.

Lopez wound up throwing six innings, allowing only two solo homers; a solid debut for the kid.

10) Hunter Wendelstedt umpired the plate at Wrigley Field Saturday; not to say it was hot in Chicago, but he umpired with a wet towel draped around his neck. Never saw that before, but it seems like it was the smart thing to do.

9) Astros are 10-15 in one-run games, 45-15 in their other games.
Mariners are 25-11 in one-run games, 28-20 in their other games.

8) Kansas City Royals are 13-15 vs lefty starting pitchers, 12-42 vs righty starters.
Toronto Blue Jays are 11-21 vs lefty starters, 28-22 vs righthanders.

7) Enes Kanter has played seven years in the NBA, scoring 11.7 ppg; last three years, he scored 12.7, 14.3, 14.1 ppg, all while playing 21.0, 21.3, 25.8 mpg.

Kanter has earned $72,889,846 in his NBA career, will tack on an additional $18,622,514 this coming season. In his last two seasons with the Thunder (2015-16, 20-16-17), he started one freaking game!!!

Kanter shot at least 54.5% from the floor the last four years. He must be a good teammate.

6) Colorado Rockies called up OF Raimel Tapia, optioned their Opening Day starting pitcher Jon Gray, to AAA Albuquerque. Tapia is a leadoff-type hitter; will they give him a chance to play every day? Hope so, I’ve had him stashed on my fantasy team for three years now.

5) Star pitchers Jacob deGrom and Corey Kluber both played college baseball at Stetson.

deGrom played shortstop his first two years for the Hatters; he hit .243 and .258, then added pitching to his resume, going 4-5, 4.48 in 17 games (82.1 IP), while hitting .263. He pitched one inning in those first two seasons.

4) Mets’ TV guy Gary Cohen is very good at calling games and he wants the Mets to win but he is fair and questions why certain things happen.

Mets have a 22-year old 1B named Dominic Smith who hasn’t started the last three games against righty starters, even though Smith bats lefty. Cohen openly asked on the air why Smith wasn’t starting— “If he isn’t starting, then why is he here?”

You don’t get stuff like that on most local baseball broadcasts.

Smith is hitting .203 in his first 230 major league PA; he went to Juniper Serra HS in California, same high school that Tom Brady and Barry Bonds went to.

3) Lakers’ G Lonzo Ball has a torn meniscus in his left knee, is expected to be ready for the start of training camp in September.

2) Reds’ pitcher Michael Lorenzen homered again Saturday, now has three pinch-hit HRs in his career. The only other pitcher to do that in the last 60 years: Gary Peters, who hit four from 1964-71, playing in the pre-DH era for the White Sox, Red Sox.

1) Happy Canada Day to all our friends north of the border!!!

Best and worst MLB starting pitchers to bet on in July
Marc Lawrence

At 45 years old, just the fact that Bartolo Colon is wearing a major league uniform is amazing. However, his past July efforts don't stack up well for the right hander.

Independence Day Fireworks and the MLB All-Star game always go hand-in-hand during the month of July. It’s also signals the start of the second-half of the MLB campaign. And as we’ve come to learn the key to each and every team’s fortunes lies with the pitching staff.

Can these pitchers sew up critical wins or will they unravel like a hand-me-down suit? Stay tuned. What we do know is that certain pitchers love hurling this time of the season while others tend to get lit up like a roman candle.

Listed below are hurlers that have enjoyed a two-to-one or better success ratio in team-starts over the course of the last three seasons during the month of July. On the flip side, we've also listed pitchers that struggle in July, winning 33 percent or less of their team-start efforts. To qualify pitchers must have made a minimum of 10 starts, with at least one start each July over the last three years. And for your convenience alongside each record we break down each pitcher’s greatest success or greatest failure rate either home (H) or away (A) within his good or bad month.

Note: * designates a categorical repeat appearance by this pitcher, maintaining status quo from last season’s July list.

GOOD MONTH PITCHERS:

Cole, Gerrit • 9-3 (6-1 H)

As if Cole was not effective enough this month in his career, the right-hander is having a fantastic year with the World Series champs. Cole's evolution began last season when he discovered a changeup that worked, to go along with two fastball's, a curve and a slider. Expect him to continue to stay hot in July.

deGrom, Jacob • 10-4 (5-2 A)

In truth, the only thing that holds deGrom back from continuing to win in July is his teammates. The New York right-hander has a 1.69 ERA this season, but in 10 of last 12 starts, the Mets have scored three or fewer runs. Let's see if deGrom can overcome this adversity.

*Duffy, Danny • 12-4 (7-1 H)

The Kansas City lefty is now on a bad baseball team and is showing the effects of it. Duffy has either been rather good or pathetically awful with little in between. He's not helped himself with 46 walks in just over 94.2 innings and been taken yard 18 times. Keeping up prior numbers could be an issue for Duffy.

*Hamels, Cole • 11-4 (5-1 H)

At some point of this month, Hamels will likely be traded with the July 31 deadline coming. The lefty is no longer the same pitcher he was when with Philadelphia, at 34 years old now. His command is shakier and he's prone to more home runs allowed, but if he's traded to a contender, that might resharpen the focus and make his a consistent winner again.

*Lynn, Lance • 8-3 (6-1 H)

Never a hard thrower, Lynn has always found a way to work out of trouble. He walks more batters than he did before the injury, which is caused by nibbling more. But he knows how to avoid trouble and can be a reliable five/six inning hurler.

Quintana, Jose 11-5 (7-3 H)

Plain and simple, it's time for Quintana to stand up. The Cubs lefty was an excellent pitcher on the other side of Chicago but has been indifferent in his time on the North Side. His inability to spot the fastball inside at the knees or chest high has curtailed his production. With a largely underachieving starting staff, the Cubs need the pitcher they traded for.

*Tanaka, Masahiro • 10-5 (8-1 H)

The new Yankees coaching staff has Tanaka on a shorter leash, but he keeps on winning. As the month starts he will be coming off the DL with a hamstring problem, but he's 7-2 this season and 59-30 lifetime in the Pinstripes and everyone will expect that to continue when he starts dealing again.

BAD MONTH PITCHERS:

Colon, Bartolo • 4-10 (1-5 A)

At 45 years old, just the fact that Colon is wearing a major league uniform is amazing. Nonetheless, his stops in recent years have been on pitching poor teams who don't have anyone in the minors they trust to be even a .500 pitcher. Colon knows how to pitch and where to place the ball, but to expect many W's is a pipedream. This month could lead to his undoing.

Matz, Stephen • 3-8 (1-4 H)

After being a solid pitcher in 2015-16, Matz was injured last season and has not found the previous groove. His walks are up and strikeouts are down this season, which is usually a tell of diminished results. Playing for a Mets club with a host of injuries is the new norm for the Blue and Orange. Matz has not won often in July and that probably continues this season.

Ray, Robbie • 4-10 (1-5 H)

After missing almost two months, the Diamondbacks talented and mystifying portsider retuned on June 27. Nobody has ever questioned Ray's ability and it looked like after having a career-year in 2017, he had grown into the focused pitcher everyone was hoping for. In spite of 51 strikeouts in only 33.2 innings, Ray has an ERA of 4.01 and a WHIP of 1.37. Simply put, it’s hard to trust this pitcher.

Shields, James • 5-11 (1-5 A)

If not for the White Sox willing to live with Shields’ mediocre repertoire at 36 and desire to have a veteran pitcher on a youngish squad, he would probably be out of baseball. Bet against Shields and Chi-Sox again this month.

STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTING PITCHERS

Streaking: Jon Lester, Chicago Cubs (10-2, 2.18 ERA, $975)

Lester has turned back the clock, having reeled off six consecutive victories while allowing just four total runs in his previous five starts. And with Lester either an underdog or at even odds in each of the past three games, that has meant a tidy profit for bettors; Lester comes into Sunday's start ranked third among starters in total earnings.

Lester is a comfortable -172 favorite against visiting Minnesota, but should fare well against a Twins team that has lost four of five.

Slumping: Gio Gonzalez, Washington Nationals (6-5, 3.68 ERA, $-95)

Things continue to go south for the veteran left-hander, after he was tagged for six runs – thanks in large part to five walks – in just one inning in an 11-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays last time out. Gonzalez has surrendered 17 runs in just 14 1/3 innings over his previous four starts, with the Nationals dropping four of those games.

The Phillies are slightly below average vs. lefties, but with the way Gonzalez has pitched of late, taking host Philadelphia at +102 is a decent play Sunday.
