Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

It is never too late to be what you want to be:

— At age 24, future author Stephen King was working as a janitor and living in a trailer.

— At age 27, Vincent Van Gogh quit being a missionary and decided to go to art school.

— At age 30, Harrison Ford was a carpenter.

— Julia Child didn’t release her first cookbook until she was 39.

— Samuel L Jackson didn’t get his first movie role until he was 46.

— Grandma Moses didn’t begin her painting her career until she was 76.

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here……

13) Cole Hamels’ last five starts with last place Texas: 1-3, 11.86.

Cole Hamels’ first five starts with the contending Cubs; 4-0, 1.06.

Go figure.

12) Browns’ QB Tyrod Taylor dislocated the pinky on his left hand Thursday night, but for some unknown reason, came back into the game later on. Not sure that was a smart thing to do.

11) Speaking of which, Cam Newton scrambled against the Patriots Friday night, not only didn’t he slide, he dove head-first, got upended and landed on his left shoulder. He was OK, but whats the point of diving head-first and taking a hit?

New rule this year: if a QB dives-head-first, it gets treated just like he was sliding feet-first, it gets marked at the furthest point backwards where he touched the ground.

10) If you look at Week 1 NFL games the last five years, under was 42-36-1 in those games.

I’m thinking that since starters play so little football in the summer and in exhibition games, teams aren’t going to be as sharp (or in as good condition) as later on in the season.

Last year, under was 11-4 in Week 1 games. Something to think about.

9) Detroit Lions were only NFL team LY to have two WR’s catch passes for 1,000+ yards: Marvin Jones caught 61 passes for 1,101 yards, and Golden Tate caught 92 passes for 1,003 yards.

8) Over last 14 years, only preseason #1 college football teams to win the national title that year were USC in 2004 and Alabama last season.

7) Over last five years, best five college football teams against the spread:
— Temple 40-21, 65.6%
— Colorado State 37-23, 61.7%
— Duke 36-23, 61.0%
— Houston 35-24, 59.3%
— Navy 35-24, 59.3%

6) Home team lost eight of the last ten Cowboy-Eagle games.

5) Cubs’ rookie infielder David Bote has five home runs this year; all five either tied the game or put the Cubs ahead- two of the homers were walk-offs.

4) Xavier and Illinois basketball teams are both playing in the Maui Classic in November; the two teams are chartering a plane together, so they can get a bigger plane and have more room than if they flew commercial. Teams are on opposite sides of the bracket in the tournament.

3) Former Xavier coach Chris Mack is now the Louisville coach; his non-conference schedule this season includes games with Tennessee, either Kansas/Marquette, Michigan State, at Seton Hall, at Indiana and Kentucky. They’ll be ready for ACC play.

2) Indians-Royals game Friday night was delayed because the fountains behind the centerfield fence at Kauffman Stadium overflowed, flooding the warning track in part of the outfield.

1) A wiseguy who lives near the Milwaukee airport painted “Welcome to Cleveland” on the roof of his business, apparently to confuse people flying into Milwaukee. Funny guy.

Houston, No Problems

The Houston Astros continue their series on the road against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Saturday, and RHP Justin Verlander will be opposed by RHP Jaime Barria. The Astros have been money when Verlander is on the bump, going 14-3 over his past 17 road outings, and 13-4 across the past 17 starts inside the division. In addition, Houston has really made a living picking on the dregs of the league, going 39-17 across their past 56 against teams with a losing overall record. They're also 18-5 over the past 23 road games against teams with a losing overall mark. Verlander seems to lose focus against losing sides, however, as Houston is 1-5 over his past six against teams with a losing overall record. The Astros are also 1-6 in the past seven against right-handed starting pitchers.

While those final two trends might give bettors some pause, the Halos have been a train wreck. The Angels have been dumped in four straight, including 9-3 in Friday's game in Anaheim. They are also 0-4 in their past four tries vs. RHP, and 1-4 in Barria's past five outings against divisional foes. They're 2-5 in the past seven overall against winning teams, too. Anaheim hasn't had a lot of success against the cream of the crop, either, winning just 16 of their past 51 contests against teams with a winning percentage of .600 or better. They're 1-6 in the past seven inside the division, while going 0-5 in their past five tries against the Astros when Verlander is on the bump.

As far as the total is concerned, the under is 5-2-1 in the past eight meetings overall, and 5-2-1 in the past eight meetings in Anaheim, too. The under has cashed in five straight starts by Verlander against the Halos. The under is 10-2-2 in the past 14 road games against a right-handed starting pitcher, but the over is 6-1 in Verlander's past seven against AL West clubs. The over is 4-1-1 in Houston's past six overall, too, including Friday's battle. The under is 7-3 in Barria's past 10 starts, and 5-2-1 in his past eight inside the division. However, the over is 5-1 in the past six home games vs. RHP.

Looking Ahead

Saturday, Aug. 25

It's a battle of southpaws Saturday afternoon at AT&T Park, as Rangers LHP Martin Perez and Giants LHP Andrew Suarez go toe-to-toe. San Francisco will be looking to avenge a loss on Friday, as Texas rallied for a late victory. Texas has posted a 5-1 record in their past six interleague road battles against left-handed starters, and they're 7-3 in their past 10 against NL West foes. In addition, they're 5-1 in Martin Perez's past six interleague starts and 5-0 in his past five against NL West clubs. While that's a pretty solid track record, Texas is just 1-7 over Perez's past eight outings overall, and 1-4 in his past five on the road. They're also a dismal 3-10 in his past 13 outings on the road against a team with a losing mark. The Giants haven't been much better lately, winning just three of their past 13 home games, two of their past nine overall and none of their past four at home against LHP. And they're 1-5 in Suarez's past six starts against losing sides. The under is 7-2-1 in the past 10 meetings between these sides, although the over hit on Friday.

The Indians rallied to take the lead late in Friday's game against the Royals, but the bullpen coughed up the win with a pair of homers allowed in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Cleveland bullpen was leakier than the fountains in right field at Kauffman Stadium. Cleveland is an overwhelming favorite in Saturday's game against Kansas City, and there is good reason. The Indians are 24-5 in Corey Kluber's past 29 starts against AL Central opponents, and 12-1 in his past 13 on the road against losing teams. They're also 23-8 in Klubot's past 31 overall on the road. The Royals are 1-6 in Heath Fillmyer's past seven outings. Friday's victory against a quality team was a rarity, too, as they're still just 5-24 in their past 29 at home against teams with a winning overall mark. They have also won just 12 of their past 60 against winning teams.

Weather Report

The weather looks outstanding on Saturday, and there are no problems spots as far as precipitation is concerned. In Detroit, the White Sox are Tigers will be battling winds from 10-13 mph blowing left to right. That's the only trouble spot as far as wind, too.

Sunday, Aug. 26

The Cardinals and Rockies cap off their series with a lefty-lefty matchup. St. Louis has torn it up against lefties lately, going 10-1 in their past 11 vs. LHP. They're also 5-2 in the past seven on the road against southpaws. They have been red hot with LHP Austin Gomber on the hill, too, going 5-0 in his past five overall, and 4-0 in his past four on the road. The Rox have been hot, too, winning 13 of their past 16 against southpaws, including 6-1 in their past seven at home vs. LHP. Colorado has been ice cold when LHP Tyler Anderson is on the hill, however, winning just two of his past 11 at home while dropping each of his past six starts overall.

It's also a southpaw battle at Chavez Ravine, as Padres LHP Robbie Erlin and Dodgers LHP Alex Wood go head-to-head. Erlin hasn't found a lot of success lately, and the Padres are 4-9 over his past 13 starts. They're also just 3-9 in his past 12 outings inside the division, and 1-4 in his past five against winning sides. San Diego is also just 6-21 in their past 27 against left-handed starting pitchers. For L.A., they're 10-3 in Wood's past 13 at home against teams with a losing record, and 17-7 overall in his past 24 against clubs with an overall losing mark. However, they have won just twice in the past seven starts by the lefty, and they're 0-4 in Wood's past four at Dodger Stadium. The under is 4-0 in Wood's past four starts, but the over is 5-2-1 in his past eight inside the division and a perfect 5-0 in his past five against the Padres.

The Yankees turn to ace RHP Luis Severino to try and cap off a winning series against the Orioles. Baltimore counters with RHP Dylan Bundy. The Yankees have posted a 15-3 record over Severino's past 18 outings against teams with a losing overall mark, and they're 11-3 in his past 14 games against AL East foes. They're also 8-3 in the past 11 road outings by Severino, and 38-15 in his past 53 starts overall. On the flip side, the O's are 0-4 in Bundy's past four starts, and they're just 3-15 in his past 18 inside the division. In addition, Baltimore is just 3-11 in Bundy's past 14 tries against teams with a winning overall record. Total bettors might want to hammer the 'over'. The over is 5-0 in Severino's past five against the O's, and 12-3-1 in the past 16 battles at Camden Yards. The over is 27-4-1 in the past 32 meetings overall in this series.

Sonny Side Up

Sonny Gray makes his return to the Yankees rotation tonight as he takes the mound for Game 2 of New York’s doubleheader in Baltimore.

Gray has pitched to a solid 2.89 ERA in four relief appearances (9.1 innings) since his last start, but his problems don’t really appear to be solved considering he still has a 1.82 WHIP and nearly as many walks as strikeouts.

Gray seems to only pitch well against lesser competition and sometimes even that doesn’t matter. Remember his last start was a seven run, eight hit, 2.2 inning disaster versus these same Orioles. With Andrew Cashner on the other side the Over 9 is worth a look.

Disrespecting the Crown

Life for the opponents of Corey Kluber in the American League Central is a tough one. Kluber has dominated the division for years and it doesn’t look like he’s going to let up any time soon.

One of those victims has been the Kansas City Royals. Over the last three seasons Kluber has faced K.C. eight times and he has a 1.99 ERA with a 1.09 WHIP with 53 strikeouts compared to nine walks while pitching an average of 6.2 innings. Take a hard look at Royals Under 3.5 runs (-160) here.

Over Ump

Total bettors have gotten excited all season when they've seen Ryan Blakney behind home plate. Early on he was an Under darling, but now it's Over that's on a hot streak in the games he officaites, going 11-3 in the last 14 games when he's calling balls and stikes. The Over trend seems more appropriate considering his 63.8 percent strike rate. Blakney will be calling balls and strikes tonight in Detroit as the Tigers host the White Sox with a total of 9.5.
