Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

Six slowest-working pitchers in major leagues:

6) Matt Andriese, Arizona, 29.5 seconds between pitches

5) Sam Dyson, Giants 29.7

4) Blake Treinen, A’s, 30.1

3) David Price Red Sox, 30.2

2) Josh Hader Brewers, 30.9

1) Kenley Jansen Dodgers, 31.3

**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind…….

13) You watch Angel Hernandez call balls/strikes, and the electronic strike zone that will come to baseball someday doesn’t seem like a such a bad idea.

I’m against the electronic strike zone, but Hernandez is a terrible umpire, and has been for a long time. Friday night, Colorado’s Jon Gray walked the opposing pitcher on 10 pitches; three of the four pitches Hernandez called balls were strikes on the electronic strike zone on TV.

I had no dog in the fight, no fantasy players involved, was just watching the game. No one pays to watch the umpire; call strikes, especially on the opposing pitcher. It isn’t that difficult.

12) Not sure if I’ve told this story here before, so here goes. It is a little random, but it was a funny moment. Was listening this week to some people talk about their kids going to high school now, and it reminded me of this:

I’m in 10th grade, long time ago (1974-75) and it is Biology class, which was a struggle for me. I sat in the back of the class, where I had a great view of a classmate named Joann who was very pretty but didn’t know I existed (go figure).

Anyway, our teacher was a little……different. If a kid was talking in class, the teacher would take an eraser (yes, we had chalkboards back then) and drill the kid with it. I mean, he would fire the eraser at the kid, drill him, and no one ever complained. These days, he would get sued.

One day, the kid sitting three seats in front of me was yukking it up about something, a big kid named Nick, and the teacher takes aim with his eraser, but he misses and drills the young lady sitting next to Nick. Stunned silence, then muffled laughter; the girl started crying.

Was very difficult to sit there the rest of the period and not laugh; never saw another eraser thrown though. Could you imagine if they let that nitwit carry a gun in class?

11) Last three seasons, Golden State Warriors are:
— When Curry plays and Durant doesn’t: 32-4
— When Durant plays and Curry doesn’t: 28-18
— When neither one plays: 1-6
— When they both play: 163-46

10) 50 years ago Friday, Colts, Browns, Steelers agreed to move from the NFL to the AFC, so that when the NFL/AFL merger happened, there would be an equal number of teams in both conferences.

According to Hall of Famer Gil Brandt, Raiders’ owner Al Davis came up with the idea, but no one would agree to switch until $3M was put on the table; then the teams became willing. Funny how that happens.

9) Indiana Pacers’ G Tyreke Evans was dismissed/disqualified from the NBA for two years, for violating the terms of the NBA’s anti-drug program. Under the program, he is eligible to apply for reinstatement in two years.

Evans averaged 10.2 ppg, 2.9 rpg and 2.4 apg in 20.3 mpg this year- he’s scored 15.7 ppg in his 11-year NBA career, and was due to become a free agent this offseason.

8) I’ve said this here before, but if you like the NBA, then the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas in early July is an excellent thing to see.

They play in two gyms at UNLV, there are usually eight games a day, and it costs around $30 for the whole day, which is worth it, just to be out of the 110-degree desert heat.

I’ve gone a few times, and it is good stuff. You see all the rookies, some 2nd-year guys; most of the coaches/GM’s are there. I was walking in the hallway one day, and Jerry West was there, talking to some people. If you like the NBA, it is an excellent thing to do.

I would discourage you from wagering on the games, however; teams need to take a look at certain guys, so they don’t always use their best possible lineups every game.

7) If you’re heading to Las Vegas this summer, right now Treasure Island, the Wynn, Venetian, Palazzo, SLS, Tropicana, Circus Circus, and Stratosphere are the casinos on the Strip that offer free parking. Lot of casinos charge to park now because of the T-Mobile Arena not having its own parking lot.

6) Las Vegas casinos pretty much now all have betting lines up for every NFL game this season, except for Week 17. Lot can change between now and the season, but if you think you’re better than the oddsmakers, you can take your shot at the windows now.

Golden Nugget is posting spreads for its college games of the year on May 30.

5) From Ralph Michaels:

Since 2015, Week 2 NFL road teams that also played on the road in Week 1 are 1-14 vs spread; there are four such teams this season. Only cover in that sample was Kansas City winning 42-37 at Pittsburgh LY, after they led 21-0 in first quarter.

4) Baseball stuff:
— Giants activated C Buster Posey from the 7-day concussion DL.
— Colorado brought up 2B prospect Brandon Rodgers.
— Toronto P Aaron Sanchez (blister) left Friday’ game early.
— Justin Turner (bruised shin) left Friday’s game early

3) QB Tommy Stevens transferred from Penn State to Mississippi State, where he’ll play for Joe Moorhead, who used to be OC at Penn State.

2) Most teams pitched for, MLB history:
Edwin Jackson: 14, Octavio Dotel: 13, Mike Morgan, Ron Villone: 12 each.

1) Jim Nantz turned 60 years old Friday, which makes me feel old.

STREAKING AND SLUMPING STARTERS

STREAKING

Jon Lester, Chicago Cubs (3-1, 1.16 ERA, $300): The Cubs are on a nice little run winning 21 of their last 28 games and getting performances like the ones they’ve gotten out of Lester are a big reason why. The veteran lefty has been outstanding this season, but he’s been nearly unhittable even more recently.

Lester has an ERA of 0.00, let’s repeat that. An ERA of 0.00 over this last three starts with a 1.02 WHIP while striking out 20 and walking just 20 in 19.2 innings pitched. He’ll look to keep that going as h toes the rubber against Stephen Strasburg and the Nationals in Washington tonight. The Cubs are currently +130 road dogs with a total of 9.

SLUMPING

Zack Godley, Arizona Diamondbacks (1-3, 7.65 ERA, $-26): It has been a rough go for Godley in 2019. The D-backs’ right hander lost his spot the rotation after pitching to a 7.58 ERA and a 1.72 WHIP in his first six starts. Since then, Godley has been used as a reliever and a “Opener” once.

Today, he makes a spot start at home against the Giants and head coach Torey Lovullo wouldn’t confirm if this would be another “Opener” start or if he would get more of a run. Either way the D-backs are in tough today against Madison Bumgarner and the Giants. Arizona is currently slight -108 home fave with a total of 8.5.

3 STRIKES

SUPER SNELL’S KRYPTONITE

Blake Snell has become one of the best pitchers in the MLB and is the defending American League Cy Young Award Winner, but if there’s one thing that he still struggles with it’s pitching at Yankee Stadium. The lefty has made eight career starts in the Bronx and the Rays have gone 1-7 in those games where he has pitched to a 5.63 ERA and a 1.63 WHIP. Snell and the Rays are currently -120 road faves for this afternoon’s matchup.

MEANWHILE, OVER IN PHILLY…

The Phillies host the Rockies this afternoon that is definitely trending towards the Over. The Rockies Antonio Senzatela has a 6.33 ERA over his last five starts and the Over is 5-0 in those games, while the Phillies Aaron Nola has been inconsistent this season to the tune of a 4.86 ERA resulting in the Over going 8-1 in his starts this season. The Over is also 8-2-1 in the last 11 meetings between these two teams in Philly. Today’s total is currently 9.5.

IT’S ALL OVER UMP

Jeff Kellogg will be calling balls and strikes tonight in Atlanta when the Braves host the Brewers and Over bettors should rejoice. The Over is 16-5-1 in Kellogg’s last 22 games behind home plate, including 6-1 this season. That’s due in part to his very low 61.5 percent strike rate. More balls, more baserunners, more runs. The total for tonight’s game is currently 9.5.
