    Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

    Odds to win the National League pennant:

    3-1: Chicago Cubs

    7-2: Los Angeles Dodgers

    7-1: Arizona, Atlanta, Colorado, St Louis

    10-1: Milwaukee Brewers

    25-1: Washington Nationals

    100-1: Pittsburgh Pirates

    **********

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

    13) This is one of the many reasons Moneyball 2 could be coming to a theater near you in the near future:

    On February 12, 2016, Milwaukee traded Khris Davis to the A’s, for minor leaguers Bubba Derby and Jacob Nottingham.

    In three seasons for the A’s, Davis has hit 122 homers, knocked in 311 runs.

    Derby is 5-5, 4.92 in 28 AAA games this year (15 starts); he hasn’t pitched in the majors yet, and is playing for Colorado Springs, where the high altitude can inflate your ERA.

    Nottingham has played in seven MLB games; he is hitting .286 in AAA this year, again playing in a hitter-friendly environment.

    Part of the reason Milwaukee traded Davis is that he can’t throw very well so he would’ve been a liability playing the outfield in a league with no DH.

    12) Davis has four homers and a double in 10 career AB’s vs Justin Verlander.

    Monday night, a bunch of Make-a-Wish kids were on the field before the game in Oakland; Davis had one of the kids sign his jersey, and he played the game with the kid’s signature on his left shoulder.

    Second time, up, he hits a very long home run. The type of stuff Hollywood loves.

    11) With college football starting soon, there was an article written with results of a poll where coaches were asked anonymously which of their colleagues was overrated/underrated.

    Penn State’s James Franklin was one of most often mentioned as overrated, to which I say, “If you win at Vanderbilt (they went 24-15 under Franklin, 11-13 in SEC games) then you ain’t underrated.”

    Penn State is 22-5 under Franklin the last two years. Enough said.

    10) Jose Ureña tossed a complete game 2-hitter in Washington Sunday; now he can go on his 6-game suspension from hitting Ronald Acuña and life can resume.

    Pitching inside has to be allowed; if a pitcher makes the batter move his feet, then all the better for the pitcher. You don’t want to see getting hitters getting drilled by pitches, but pitchers can’t allow them to be so comfortable in the batters’ box.

    9) When Brandt Snedeker shot a 59 at the Wyndham Classic Thursday, he made only three putts longer than 10 feet, thats how well he was striking the ball.

    8) Baseball is hard: Phillies’ IF Scott Kingery played in the Little League World Series when he was a kid, but he went hitless in Williamsport:

    “We played three games [in the Little League World Series], went 2-1, and got knocked out because of a tiebreaker. I had zero hits, [in] probably 10, 11 at-bats. I hit a kid right in the chest at third base and he picked it up and threw me out. It was tough.”

    Phillies’ P Nick Pivetta didn’t make his league’s All-Star team when he was 12.

    7) Denver Broncos won their last six Week 1 games, the longest active winning streak on Opening Day in the NFL. This will be 8th year in row they open the season at home.

    Dallas Cowboys are opening on road this year for the first time since 2012.

    6) I was surprised to learn that San Antonio is the 7th-largest city in America, and San Diego is the 8th-largest. Why did the Chargers leave San Diego?

    5) The Cactus Bowl will now be called the Cheez-It Bowl, and will be played at Chase Field (where the Diamondbacks play) on December 26.

    4) From 2005-08, Doug Pederson was a high school football coach, at Calvary Baptist Academy in Louisiana. Now he is head coach of the Super Bowl champs. Life is funny sometimes.

    3) Mets’ 1B Wilmer Flores has two brothers who are also named Wilmer. Seriously. His father must be related to George Foreman, who has four sons named George.

    2) Clarification: Last week I was wondering why the kid on Puerto Rico’s Little League team was taken out of the game in the last inning, with a 2-0 lead- he had thrown 88 pitches.

    Turns out it is a LLWS rule; when a pitcher hits 85 pitches, that is his last batter, so they had to put a new pitcher in at that point.

    1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they don’t):
    NL: Braves-Cubs-Diamondbacks. Wild Card: Phil or Colo @ Milwaukee
    AL: Red Sox-Indians-A’s or Hst. Wild Card: AL West #2 @ New York

                    Tuesday, August 21



                    Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

                    Streaking:
                    Blake Snell, Tampa Bay Rays (14-5, 2.10 ERA, $659)

                    What a breakout season it has been for Blake Snell. The Rays’ young lefty trail just Jacob deGrom and Chris Sale in ERA at 2.10 and aside from a little hiccup against the Twins right before the All-Star break, the kid has been on fire.

                    Snell has pitched to a 1.18 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP over his last eight starts and has allowed on two long balls over that stretch. Snell and the Rays are big -250 home faves against the visiting Royals tonight.

                    Slumping:
                    Chris Stratton, San Francisco Giants (8-7, 5.52 ERA, $549) … and Steven Matz, New York Mets (5-10, 4.60 ERA, $2)

                    This may be a first, but we just couldn’t decide between Stratton and Matz considering they are facing off against one another tonight. But it’s for good reason as both starters have some ugly numbers.

                    Starting with Stratton, the Giants right-hander has a massive 14.14 ERA in his last four appearances (one relief) with a WHIP of 2.79.

                    It’s almost shocking of similarly bad the numbers for Matz are. In his last four starts he has a 13.18 ERA with a WHIP of 2.20.

                    Just. Yuck. Tonight’s total of 8.0 has everything to do with the fact these teams played 13-innings last night and not the starting pitching. We’ll be looking at the Over here.


                    Under Legend Behind The Plate

                    Mike Estabrook loves to call strikes and loves to keep the game moving at a respectable pace. Hey, who can blame him?

                    Over the last five seasons, Estrabrook has averaged an incredibly high strike percentage of 64.59. More strikes = less hitter-friendly counts = less runs = more Unders. Under is 16-7 in his 23 games behind the plate in 2018 and over the last three seasons the Under is 50-25 (66.67 percent) in games called by Estabrook.

                    He will be behind the plate tonight in Oakland where the red-hot Athletics will be taking on the visiting Texas Rangers. Brett Anderson gets the start for the A's and he's exactly the type of veteran pitcher that will take advantage of Estabrook's wide strike zone. Anderson has allowed zero runs and only seven hits in his last two starts at home (14.2 innings) and we expect that to continue tonight.

                    Under has cashed in eight of Anderson's last nine starts so take a look at Under 9 for the full game and Texas team total Under 3.5 (+100).


                    Hitter's Wind At Comerica Park

                    It could be a tough night for Kyle Hendricks and Jordan Zimmermann as the weather forecast is calling for a 12-14 mile per hour wind blowing out to the power alley in left center field for tonight's game between the Cubs and Tigers at Comerica Park.

                    The Cubs come into this game in a major offensive slump, averaging only one run per game in their four-game weekend series in Pittsburgh against the Pirates. A day off yesterday, and some favorable winds today, should help turn their bats around.

                    The total is set at 9 for tonight and if you don't like the full game Over (-110) take a look at the first three innings total of Over 2.5 (-135).


                    Kopech's Debut

                    Handicapping a starting pitcher's major league debut is never easy, and tonight's start by White Sox's prospect Micheal Kopech is certainly no exception. Kopech is the No. 13 overall prospect according to MLB.com and the No. 2 right-handed pitching prospect. He was one of the jewels acquired by the White Sox in the trade that sent Chris Sale to Boston in 2016 and possesses an 80-out-of-80 grade fastball.

                    Even if you don't bet the game, his debut tonight against the Twins should be fun to watch. Kopech has 170 strikeouts in 126.1 innings at AAA this season and has been known to have some control issues with his 100+ mile per hour fastball.

                    With his command issues, and the nerves surrounding a major league debut in from of an excited home crowd at Guaranteed Rate Field, you may want to take a look at Run in the Top of the 1st: yes at +250 but look for Kopech to settle in and keep the Twins Under 8.5 hits for the game (-145).
