Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Six interesting college games this weekend:

— Washington State @ USC (-4)- Friday night

— Stanford (-1.5) @ Oregon

— Florida (-4.5) @ Tennessee

— Texas Tech @ Oklahoma State (-13)— Listed total is 79.

— TCU (-3) @ Texas

— Wisconsin (-3.5) @ Iowa

**********

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

13) Cleveland Browns were going to cut WR Josh Gordon over the weekend, but they traded him instead, to New England; they got a 5th-round draft pick in exchange.

12) It is too bad HBO’s Hard Knocks ends when the final rosters are named in training camp; seeing all that drama play out behind closed doors would’ve been good TV.

11) I know Nebraska is 0-2 for the first time since 1957 and they lost to Troy State Saturday, but ragging on Troy is a mistake- Trojans also won at LSU last year- they’re 24-6 in their last 30 games, and are favored to win the Sun Belt this season.

10) USC didn’t score a touchdown at Stanford two weeks ago; they didn’t score a point on their last nine drives at Texas- those two losses should have some Trojan coaches nervous, and since the head coach is signed up thru 2023, I’m talking about assistants on offensive side of the ball.

9) Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys for $154M in 1989; they’re worth right around $5B now. Not the best GM of a football team, but a damn good businessman.

8) Last two years, San Francisco Giants are 2-17 at Coors Field in Denver.

7) Defensive tackle David Onyemata of the Saints got fined $40,108 for two hits in the Week 1 loss to Tampa Bay. Problem is, Onyemata’s game check was $39,375- he lost $700 by playing in the game.

6) Florida State is 1-2 this season, and has looked awful in all three games.

In coach Willie Taggart’s previous head coaching stops, he went 11-25 in his first season at those schools; this is his third stop in three years, which is weird for a head coach, and his system is a lot different than Jimbo Fisher’s. If panic set in and FSU wanted to fire Taggart, it would cost the school around $21M, so that probably ain’t happening. At least this season.

5) Former NBA player Brent Barry got a job in San Antonio Spurs’ front office, which takes him off TV and that is a loss for those of us who watch NBA games on TV- he was a good analyst.

4) Mets won their season series with the Phillies the last seven years, their longest streak of that kind over any opponent, ever.

3) Seattle Seahawks have played 33 Monday Night Football games; last night was only their 10th such game on the road.

2) Eagles get starting QB Carson Wentz back this weekend, for first time since he got hurt out in LA last December. Philly split its first two games this season.

1) One of the best lines I’ve heard in Hard Knocks over the years was from Texans’ coach Bill O’Brien, who called the NFL “…..the most competitive business in the world” while talking to his team after the final roster had been determined.

Pretty accurate statement; there is such a fine line between success and failure.

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Blake Snell, Tampa Bay Rays (19-5, 2.03 ERA, $1174)

Is Blake Snell the best pitcher in baseball right now? Might be.

The Rays have won Snell's last seven starts overall and during that span he owns an ERA of 1.32 and a WHIP of 0.7073. Oddsmakers have caught on to Snell, as well, as the Rays are massive -230 road favorites this evening in Arlington against Yovani Gallardo and the Texas Rangers.

Slumping: Yovani Gallardo, Texas Rangers (8-5, 6.67 ERA, $759)

On the other side of Snell's start tonight is Mr. Gallardo. "Yo" has been a profitable +7.59 units for bettors this season but his pitching numbers tell a much different story. The Rangers won a few shootouts as big underdogs with Gallardo on the hill, which has inflated his betting numbers, but over his last eight starts he is pitching to an ERA of 7.11 and a WHIP of 1.7105.

The Rangers are, of course, big home underdogs today at +180.


Windy Oakland

The Angels and A's open a three game series at Rickey Henderson Field at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum on Tuesday night and the weather forecast is calling for a stiff 12-14 mile per hour breeze blowing out the center field.

The full game total looks pretty achievable at 8.5 but the Angels are starting Tyler Skaggs, who has allowed 17 earned runs over his last 6.2 innings of work (22.95 ERA), so Over on the A's team total of 4.5 (+105) seems like the smarter play.


Ring 'Em Up Eddings

Umpire Doug Eddings will be calling balls and strikes tonight in San Diego for the game between the Giants and the Padres at Petco Park. Eddings is one of the top Under umpires in Major league Baseball this season at 18-9, and the Under is 22-10-1 in his last 33 games in pads dating back to last season.

The main trait of an Under trending umpire is a large strike zone, which leads to more strikes called, which leads to less hits, which leads to less runs scored.

Eddings owns the second highest strike percentage of the 89 home plate umpires who have called games this season at 65.0 percent (Jeremie Rehak is No. 1 at 65.3 percent).

The total may be low, but both Derek Holland and Joey Lucchesi have been pitching well. Look for both pitchers to exploit the wide strike zone and put plenty of zeros up on the scoreboard. Full game Under 7 (-110) is the play tonight.


Kluber Dominance

Over the last month and a half of the baseball season, Cleveland Indians' starting pitcher Corey Kluber has been hit-or-miss. He either has an electric start where he dominates his opponents over seven shutout innings, or he blows up for four or five earned runs allowed in five innings of work. One thing that you can rely on with Kluber, however, is that he will dominate the Chicago White Sox.

In two starts against the White Sox this season, Kluber has allowed zero runs and only four hits in 13 innings of work. He has also rung up 17 strikeouts with only one walk in those two victories. Oh, and by the way, the Indians have outscored the Sox 21-1 in those two games.

The lean for this game is the Tribe on the runline -1.5 (-120) and if you're feeling frisky check them out at -2.5 (+135). Also, the White Sox team hits total of Under 7.5 (-120) should be considered.
