    Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

    — There have been 210 NHL playoff series where a team led 3 games to 0:

    — Team leading 3-0 was 128-82 in Game 4 (now 130-82).

    — Team leading 3-1 was 59-23 in Game 5

    — Team leading 3-2 was 14-9 in Game 6.

    — Team that led 3-0 was 5-7 in Game 7.

    — Columbus/Islanders were underdogs that led series 3-0 this week.


    **********

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

    13) 4:50am late Monday night/early Tuesday morning, my phone starts beeping; figured some other terrible thing must’ve happened in the world, but instead they announced that Russell Wilson signed a 4-year, $140M extension with the Seahawks.

    At 4:50am, 1:50am in Seattle.

    I’m guessing they could’ve waited a couple of more hours to announce it, but no……

    12) Tennessee basketball coach Rick Barnes was asked directly if he would have left for UCLA if the Bruins had covered his $8M buyout: “I think I would have been the coach at UCLA.”

    Why would he say that now, if he was happy in Knoxville? Once he turned down the UCLA job, why would he talk about it again?

    11) Baseball injuries:
    — Tampa Bay Rays’ ace Blake Snell (toe) goes on the IL- Apparently a granite pole fell on his foot in his bathroom at home. Seriously.
    — Brewers put P Freddy Peralta (shoulder) on the IL.

    10) When Golden State led the Clippers by 31 points Monday night, some courageous (or drunk) person in Las Vegas wagered $50 on the Clippers to win the game SU, at 100-1 odds. He/she collected $5,000 when the Clippers won, which buys a lot of alcohol.

    9) As of Tuesday at 2pm, there were 683 college basketball players in the transfer portal; with 353 D-I college basketball teams, that works out to 1.93 players per team, and it is a big part of what is hurting the quality of play in college basketball.

    There is so little continuity from year to year; look at Nevada, which just hired Steve Alford to replace Eric Musselman. Right now, Nevada has zero players who will be eligible to play when the season starts in November. Not one. None. Bupkis.

    8) In 2013, Aaron Rodgers signed a deal that pays him $23M a year, and ate up 17.9% of the Packers’ salary cap. In 2019, Seattle just signed Russell Wilson to a $35M a year contract that will eat up 18.7% of the Seahawks’ salary cap.

    7) Phillies 14, Mets 3— Phillies scored eight runs in this game before they made an out; Mets made four errors in first inning. This was only 2nd time ever the Mets allowed 10+ runs in the first inning, other time coming in July 1988.

    Steven Matz is first MLB pitcher since Paul Wilson in 2005 to allow eight runs without getting anyone out, although the shortstop did make two errors behind him.

    If you like to plan ahead, baseball’s 2026 All-Star Game will be held in Philadelphia, to help commemorate our country’s 250th birthday.

    6) New York 8, Boston 0— Chris Sale is now 0-4, 8.50 this season; Boston is paying him $15M this year, then $164M more from 2020-25.

    Red Sox found a scapegoat for their 6-11 start when they DFA’d catcher Blake Swihart Tuesday afternoon, and brought Sandy Leon back to the majors.

    5) Cardinals’ 1B Paul Goldschmidt hit his 7th home run Monday night; he hit 7th home run last year on May 30. St Louis has a very potent lineup.

    4) Columbus Blue Jackets have been in NHL for 19 years, had never won a playoff series, until they beat Tampa Bay 7-3 last night and swept the Lightning. Tampa Bay had 30 more points than the Blue Jackets this season, had the NHL’s best record.

    This is a big reason why the NHL playoffs are better than the NBA’s version; #8-seeds can and often do win playoff series. Hardly ever happens in the NBA.

    3) Temple/USC will start a home/home basketball series this fall, with the Owls visiting the Galen Center this year, with the Trojans coming to Philly in the fall of 2020.

    USC poached grad transfer Daniel Otumi away from the Akron Zips; Otumi averaged 14.2 ppg LY and shot 37% behind the arc.

    2) Most baseball strategy is fairly cut/dry, but one gray area that gets people’s blood boiling is when a game is tied going to bottom of 8th or 9th inning; does the visiting team use its closer with the game tied to keep the game alive, and then use a lesser pitcher to close the game if they get the lead later on, or do they hold the closer back for when they (hopefully) get the lead?

    It is an interesting question; pitchers are so pampered these days, managers more and more see the big picture instead of just today’s game.

    We’re a long way from 1980, when the A’s had three different starting pitchers throw 14-inning complete games, because the Oakland relievers back then weren’t very good.

    1) NFL Draft is a week from tomorrow; I’m tired of mock drafts, which are nothing but fake news that we learn nothing from. The draft is a fascinating process, but having media people guess multiple times at what is going to happen is simply a waste of time.

    NO ONE KNOWS what is going to happen; thats why it is so interesting.

                Weekly Total Talk

                Boston Common

                The Boston Red Sox have looked very ordinary so far this season, and no one expected even 18 regular-season games that they would be dead-last in the majors with a minus-40 run differential. They were scorched by the New York Yankees by an 8-0 score in Tuesday's series opener, and they have just one run over the past two games. The 'under' has connected in three in a row for Boston, and the under is 4-1 in their past five against teams with a losing record, and 4-0 in their past four road games against teams with a losing overall home mark, too. With Nathan Eovaldi on the mound, though, that could turn around. The over is 6-0-1 in his past seven starts, and 4-0 in his past four on the road while going 3-0-1 in his past four games inside the division.

                For the Yankees, they too have struggled, and are below .500 midway through April. They were expected to battle the Red Sox in the standings, but not to avoid the basement in the American League East. The under is 6-1 in the past seven home starts for the Yankees, while going 4-1 in their past five games against teams with a winning percentage under .400. Like Eovaldi, the over has been a common 'Happ'-ening for JA Happ. The over is 6-0 across his past six starts, and 5-0 in his past five outings against divisional foes. The over is also 5-1 in Happ's past six hoe outings, and 7-0-1 in his past eight against teams with a losing overall record. The over is also 7-3 in the past 10 meetings between these AL East rivals.

                Looking Ahead

                Wednesday, April 17


                The Giants and Nationals do battle in the nation's capital at 7:05 p.m. ET. The under is 6-1-1 in San Francisco's past eight games against National League East foes, while going 4-1-1 in their past six games overall. The undeer is also 4-1 in Jeff Samardzija's past five starts overall. The over is 5-0 in Washington's past five against teams with a losing record, and 16-6 in their past 22 overall. The over is also 24-9-1 in the past 34 games at home. However, the under is a whopping 16-3 in Jeremy Hellickson's past 19 starts overall, 4-1 in his past five home starts and 4-0 in his past four against teams with a losing overall mark.

                The Astros and Athletics continue their battle in Oakland. The under is 8-3 in Houston's past 11 on the road, while going 5-2 in the past seven road outings against a team with a winning home mark. The over is a perfect 8-0 in the past eight overall for Oakland, and 4-0 in the past four against divisional foes. However, the under is 7-3 in the past 10 at home for the A's, and 4-1 in Frankie Montas' past five outings while going 4-1 in his past five inside the division, too. The over is 15-5-1 in the past 21 meetings in this series in Oakland.

                Wind Report

                The wind won't be a factor in many parks, although the winds will affect the Giants and Nationals. We'll have breezy conditions knocking balls down, as a wind blows 10-13 mph from right field into the face of the batters. If the game in Minneapolis gets underway with a 70 percent chance of rain from 6-9 pm CDT, the batters will be facing stiff wind from 12-15 mph blowing in from the left-center field power alley. In Texas, the wind will also be blowing in from 13-16 mph, keeping totals down.

                Thursday, April 18

                Hey, for what it's worth (not much), the under is 7-0 in the past seven for the Reds on a Thursday. More importantly, the under is 9-1-1 in their past 11 games against pitchers with a WHIP of 1.15 or less. The under is also 21-6 in their past 27 games on the road, while going 17-5 in their past 22 road games against a teams with a winning record. For the Padres, they like going low on Thursdays, too, going 24-9-1 in their past 34 on the day. The under is 7-3 in their past 10 home games heading into Wednesday. However, in this series, the over is 10-1 in the past 11 meetings, and 4-1-1 in the past six battles at Petco Park.

                The Mariners have RHP Felix Hernandez on the bump, and he is opposed by RHP Chris Stratton. The over is 8-3-1 in the past 12 overall for the M's, and 7-3-1 in their past 11 games against right-handed starting pitchers. In addition, the over is 4-1 in King Felix's past five road outings, and 6-2 in his past eight against AL West foes. For the Halos , they entered Wednesday's game with a 16-5-1 mark in their past 22 games, and 9-4 in the past 13 vs. RHP. In addition, tue under is 7-2 in Hernandez's past nine road outings against the Angels, and 15-6-1 in his past 22 overall against the Halos.

                Wind Report

                For the afternoon game between the Diamondbacks and Braves, there will be a 10-13 mph wind blowing in from center field to home plate. The winds will be blowing out moderately for the Giants-Nationals at 9-12 mph. In Detroit, the White Sox-Tigers game will see rain in the forecast starting right around first pitch. If they do get underway, the winds will be gusting in from 17-20 mph, keeping totals down. Winds will be blowing left to right at Target Field for Jays-Twins, a steady 13 mph wind. For Phillies-Rockies, the winds will be gusting early on from the left-center field power alley to home plate, decreasing as the game progresses.

                  STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTERS

                  STREAKING

                  Trevor Williams, RHP Pittsburgh Pirates (1-0, 2.45 ERA, $394)
                  : Williams is off to a strong start to 2019, despite the lone win on his 2019 resume. The right hander has an ERA south of 2.50 through is first three appearances – all three qualifying as quality starts – and helped the Bucs cash as +174 underdogs at Washington in his last outing.

                  SLUMPING

                  Matt Harvey, RHP Los Angeles Angels (0-1, 10.05 ERA, $72)
                  : Harvey was bailed out in his most recent effort, allowing six runs on seven hits through just 4 1-3 innings but the Halos put 11 runs on the board to clean up the righty’s mess. Over his last two starts, Harvey has given up 14 runs on 8 1-3 innings with eight of those coming against the Texas Rangers – today’s opponent.


                  3 STRIKES

                  EARLY RISERS


                  The Tampa Bay Rays have produced early action in the bulk of their games to start the 2019 MLB season. Tampa Bay has scored or allowed at least one first-inning run in 13 of its first 17 games so far. The Rays have been the first to strike on the scoreboard in 10 of those contests, while opponents have had success plating a run in the opening frame in four games, including Tuesday’s 4-2 win over Baltimore in which the Orioles opened scoring on a single from Rio Ruiz in the first. Baseball bettors should take a look at first-inning props and totals.

                  HOME RUN HAPP

                  Veteran southpaw J.A. Happ has a new home in the Bronx but the change in venue hasn’t helped in terms of keeping the ball in the park. Happ has allowed at least one home run in each of his three starts to begin 2019, and if you go back to last season, he’s served up dingers in six straight appearances. In fact, the left hander has allowed a total of 18 home runs in his las t 18 outings, going back to June 20 of last year. FanDuel has Red Sox sluggers J.D Martinez and Mookie Betts priced at +230 and +320 to hit a home run Wednesday, respectively.

                  OOOOOOOO-VERS IN OAKLAND

                  The Oakland Athletics have been a favorite of Over bettors in the past couple weeks, topping the total in eight straight games heading into tonight’s contest with the Houston Astros (more on that above). Oakland kicked off the schedule as one of the hottest Under plays in baseball, playing Over the number in the season opener then proceeded to finish Under in seven straight games. However, with an abundance of offense – 5.18 runs per game – and a dipping defense – 4.63 ERA – the Over results are bubbling to the top. Tonight’s total is set at nine runs.
