Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Mid-week musings……

13) Jacob deGrom set a major league record Monday night; his 9th start this season where he gave up one or no runs, but didn’t get the win; he had previously shared the record with former Giants’ manager Roger Craig, who did it in 1963.

12) This will be Le’Veon Bell’s 6th year in the NFL; it’ll be the 4th time in six years he didn’t play in Week 1— two via suspensions, one via injury and now one via holdout.

11) Michigan started out 19-3 in Jim Harbaugh’s first 22 games as Wolverines’ coach, but they’re 9-9 in their last 18 games.

10) Saturday night, kid on Notre Dame fair-caught a kickoff on his own 8-yard line with 2:18 left and Notre Dame leading 24-17; lot of people in the crowd groaned, not knowing the new rule, where the fair catch automatically puts the ball on the 25. Fair catch is a smart play.

9) One of my favorite new words: “salty” as in: “Saban was salty when asked about his QB situation” Good descriptive word.

8) Jaguars’ RB Leonard Fournette might be getting a call from the NFL offices this week; after LSU hammered Miami Sunday night, LSU alum Fournette posted a pic on Twitter of the letter “U”, formed with a lot of $100 bills in piles, maybe $5,000 or so, taunting the Hurricanes.

I’m sure the league was just thrilled to see that; Fournette didn’t say if he won the cash from teammates or from a casino or from whomever.

7) Jose Ureña, in his three starts since he got tossed for drilling Ronald Acuña on the first pitch of a game: 2-0, 2.45 in 22 IP- the no-decision was in Fenway Park.

6) Being a manager in today’s world: Wil Myers met with manager San Diego skipper Andy Green Monday morning to apologize for a video that surfaced in which, during a live-streamed game of Fortnite, he criticized Green for holding extra defensive drills last week.

Myers has been moved to third base and made three errors in a game last week- he could use the practice.

5) The other night in Philadelphia, a Phillies’ relief pitcher took an index card out of his pocket while on the mound— it had scouting info on it, like a cheat sheet. Umpire Joe West immediately went over and took the card away from the pitcher.

Turns out Joe West was wrong; it is OK for a pitcher to have notes with him on the mound.

4) Right now, Alex Tanney is a 30-year old backup QB for the Giants; he played college ball at Monmouth in Illinois (not New Jersey)- the Giants are his 9th NFL team in seven years. During that time, he played in only one regular season game, for the 2015 Titans; he was 10-14 passing for 99 yards in a 30-24 loss in Indianapolis.

3) Las Vegas puts out spreads on I-AA college football games now; last week, Butler was a 37-point underdog at Youngstown State, and the Bulldogs pulled off a 23-21 upset. In the history of the betting world, very few 37-point underdogs have ever won (Stanford at USC when Jim Harbaugh was at Stanford was a 40-point dog, I think).

2) Ryan Podell is the Indianapolis Colts’ new sports science/conditioning coach; the last three years, he worked for the NBA’s Portland Trailblazers. NFL Films should do a feature on him, to see what, if any, new ideas he is bringing to Indy from the NBA.

1) There are people burning Nike stuff because Nike is paying Colin Kaepernick to be one of their spokesmen; I don’t care what you think of Kaepernick, but please don’t waste stuff— there are plenty of kids/homeless people who could use gear. Give it away to a homeless shelter or to Goodwill, put it to good use. Be a good person; don’t waste things.

Wednesday, September 5

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Zack Wheeler, New York Mets (9-7, 3.37 ERA, $-142)

While most of the talk around the Mets is the unreal pitching of Jacob deGrom (and his incredible First Five Innings Under trend), Wheeler is having quite the season himself and is straight dealing.

The right-hander has an 0.98 ERA with an 0.89 WHIP over his last seven starts, while striking out 50 batters compared to just nine walks. Wheeler and the Mets are +155 road dogs against the Dodgers tonight in Los Angeles.

Slumping: Aaron Sanchez, Toronto Blue Jays (3-5, 5.22, $-121)

For the second day in a row we have the pleasure of featuring a Blue Jays' starting pitcher in our Slumping Starting Pitcher section. Since returning from his blister injury that kept him out for two months (wink, wink...he really got his finger stuck in his suitcase) the Jays' right-hander has been awful with an ERA of 11.88 and a WHIP of 2.76 in two starts (8.1 innings).

Sanchez will be looking to right the ship this evening as a +120 home underdog against Tyler Glasnow and the visiting Rays.

C.B. in D.C.

C.B. Bucknor will be calling balls and strikes this evening in Washington, D.C. where the Nationals will be hosting the St. Louis Cardinals. The Under is 15-8 in Bucknor's 23 games in pads this season and if you take this trend back even further, into the 2016 season, the Under is 37-15-3 (71.15 percent) in his last 55 games behind the plate.

There is a very good pitching matchup tonight with Miles Mikolas taking on Tanner Roark so you can safely take a look at Under 9 (-120), and with the solid starting pitching you should probably look at Under 6.5 (-110) through seven innings and Under 4.5 (-105) through five innings.

Under Afternoon in Atlanta

There is a stiff 8-10 mile per hour breeze blowing in from left field in the forecast for this afternoon's game between the Atlanta Braves and the visiting Boston Red Sox at SunTrust Park.

The Sox are going with a bullpen game as Hector Velazquez will get the start. Velazquez has made four starts since the beginning of July and four innings has been his longest outing. It's a good thing the Red Sox have the second best bullpen in the American League in terms of run allowed this season.

Mike Foltynewicz will get the ball for Atlanta and he had a bit of a rough outing against the Chicago Cubs in his last start, but in his four assignments prior to that he was streaking with an ERA of 1.01 and a WHIP of 0.90 in 26.2 innings of work.

What does this all add up to? Probably some Under leans. Full game Under 8 (-120), first five Under 4 (-115).

Diamond Trends - Wednesday
Vince Akins

SU Play ON Trend of the Day:

-- Here we go again... The Athletics are 22-0 SU after a game in which their bullpen allowed multiple runs and it is post All-Star break, including 12-0 THIS season.

SU Play AGAINST Trend of the Day:

-- The Orioles are 0-20 SU when their opponent's starter has a strike-per-ball ratio greater than two on the season.

Hitter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Marlins are 0-19 SU in franchise history as a 150-plus underdog when they off a game as a dog in which Starlin Castro had multiple hits. Miami has lost these games by an average of 5.16 runs.

Starter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Phillies are 8-0 SU in franchise history as a favorite with Nick Pivetta when he averaged more than four pitches per batter in his last start. The Phillies have won these eight games by an average score of of 7.25 runs to 1.75 runs.

Wednesday's Diamond Notes
September 5, 2018
By Kevin Rogers

Hottest team: Rays (13-2 last 15)

Even though Tampa Bay will likely fall short of a Wild Card berth, the Rays have put together a terrific run since getting swept at home by the White Sox in early August. The Rays have won seven of their last nine series, including taking the first two games over the slumping Blue Jays. Tampa Bay has allowed one run to Toronto in this series, while beating the Jays in seven of the past eight matchups overall.

The Rays look for the sweep tonight at Rogers Center as Tyler Glasnow takes the mound for Tampa Bay. The former Pirates’ right-hander is winless in his last three road starts, including a 2-1 defeat at Toronto on August 12 in spite of allowing two hits and one run in five innings of work. From a totals perspective, the Rays are 4-0-1 to the UNDER in Glasnow’s last five starts, while allowing one run or less in four of six starts since joining Tampa Bay.

Coldest team: Twins (2-9 last 11)

Minnesota owns one of the worst road records in baseball at 24-46 after dropping a 5-2 decision at Houston last night. This current trip has been especially tough as the Twins have lost six of eight games, including an 18-4 defeat to Texas on Sunday. Minnesota is riding a 1-9 run in road series finales since the start of July, as the Twins try to avoid the sweep tonight against the streaking Astros.

Jake Odorizzi heads to the hill for the Twins, as Minnesota is winless in the right-hander’s last five starts away from Target Field. Odorizzi shut down the Astros earlier this season as a home underdog in a 4-1 victory as he gave up one earned run in six innings of work on April 10.

Hottest pitcher: Jhoulys Chacin, Brewers (14-5, 3.53 ERA)

One of the more underrated offseason pickups was Chacin, who posted a 13-10 record with a 3.89 ERA in San Diego last season. Chacin has tossed at least six innings in five straight starts, while the Brewers are 4-1 in this current stretch. The veteran has owned the Cubs by not allowing a run in 13 innings of work, while beating Chicago twice this season, including a 7-0 shutout at Wrigley Field on August 14. The Brewers seek the sweep of the Cubs tonight at Miller Park as Milwaukee sits three games behind Chicago for the top spot in the NL Central.

Coldest pitcher: Homer Bailey, Reds (1-13, 6.13 ERA)

Bailey just can’t escape this category as Cincinnati has lost each of his last 10 starts since mid-May. Cincinnati has compiled an amazing 1-18 record when Bailey takes the mound, which means the Reds are 58-62 in games that the right-hander isn’t involved in. The Pirates are 2-0 against Bailey this season, while scoring nine runs on him in 9.2 innings of work. Cincinnati has dropped five straight matchups with Pittsburgh, while going 1-6 in its past seven road series.

Biggest OVER run: Orioles (5-2 last seven)

While the Mariners were busy beating each other up prior to Tuesday’s game against the Orioles, Baltimore was ready to snap an eight-game road losing streak. Baltimore barely cashed the OVER in a 5-3 win at Safeco Field, while the offense busted out following consecutive one-run outputs. The O’s have been extremely inconsistent in this current OVER stretch by scoring double-digit runs twice, but also getting limited to two runs or less three times. Andrew Cashner put together a great UNDER run for Baltimore from May 9 through July 5 (10 straight UNDERS), but the Orioles are 6-3 to the OVER in his last nine outings.

Biggest UNDER run: Angels (6-1 last seven)

Unfortunately, this isn’t the longest UNDER run in baseball. That streak belongs to the Diamondbacks, who have hit the UNDER in 11 straight games. The reason Arizona isn’t being showcased is due to the D-backs being off tonight after beating San Diego on Tuesday. The Angels have been limited to three runs or less in eight of the past 10 games, including each of the last five contests. Los Angeles scored one run in the final eight innings of last night’s 4-2 setback at Texas as Jaime Barria has hit the UNDER in his last two road starts for the Angels. Barria scattered seven hits and allowed one run to the Rangers last month in a 4-2 loss, while the right-hander beat the Astros his last time out by tossing six scoreless innings.

Matchup to watch: Yankees vs. Athletics

The two teams that are on the verge of squaring off in the AL Wild Card game next month wrap up their series at the Coliseum tonight. The A’s held off the Yankees on Monday, 6-3, while the Yankees bounced back with five runs in the final three innings of a 5-1 victory last night. New York extended its lead over Oakland to 4 ½ games as the Yankees seek home-field advantage in the Wild Card game for the second straight season.

Mike Fiers has turned into a tremendous pickup for Oakland as the A’s are 5-0 in his five starts since getting acquired from Detroit in August. Four of those wins have come at the Coliseum, including two victories in the role of a home underdog against the Dodgers and Mariners. Fiers beat the Yankees as a member of the Tigers earlier this season at Comerica Park as he allowed two earned runs in 5.2 innings of a 4-2 victory.

Luis Severino counters for New York as the Yankees have won nine of their last 11 road games. Severino is unbeaten in his past three starts, as he has given up eight runs in this span although they faced the Blue Jays, Orioles, and Tigers in this stretch. The righty beat the Athletics in May at Yankee Stadium, 6-2 as he yielded five hits and one run in six innings of work.

Betcha didn’t know: The Rockies have captured eight of the past 11 matchups with the Giants, including a 7-1 record at Coors Field this season. Colorado seeks the sweep of San Francisco tonight as Antonio Senzatela tries to get on track after losing to the Cardinals and Padres his last two outings. In Senzatela’s only start against the Giants this season, the right-hander tossed seven scoreless innings in an 8-1 rout on July 3.

Biggest public favorite: Mariners (-235) vs. Orioles

Biggest public underdog: Athletics (+140) vs. Yankees

Biggest line move: White Sox (-150 to -175) vs. Tigers
