Rays’ manager Kevin Cash, on 41-year old pitcher Rich Hill

********************************************

Thursday’s Den: Doing some thinking out loud…….

13) 10-12 years ago, I read a book about college football called Meat Market, written by Bruce Feldman. It was mostly all about the recruiting period from December to Signing Day a few weeks later, and it dealt with the Ole Miss football program, then coached by Ed Orgeron.

After reading that book 10-12 years ago, if you had told me that Orgeron would making $8M a year coaching LSU in 2021, I’d have laughed at you, laughed loudly. I came away with two main questions after reading the book:

— Why would this guy give any outsider access to his program?
— Why would anyone, anyone hire this guy to be a head coach????

12) But, 10-12 years later, Orgeron has won a national title at LSU and now makes $8M a year. Go figure. He is a GREAT recruiter, and the Brady/Burrow OC/QB combination hit the jackpot for him in 2019- they’re both in the NFL now.

This week, LSU fired its offensive line coach; this fall, they’ll have two new coordinators, a new passing game coordinator, and now a new OL coach, after last year’s 5-5 disappointment.

We will see if LSU’s success is sustainable; will they land Arch Manning, the prize recruit in Louisiana? I’ve heard the kid has some relatives who were good quarterbacks, but they all played at either Ole Miss or Tennessee.

11) Dodgers 14, Cardinals 3— St Louis starter Carlos Martinez faced 12 batters; 10 of them scored. This was the most runs the Dodgers scored in the first inning of any game since May 21, 1952, when they whacked the Reds 19-1, in front of 11,580 fans at Ebbets Field.

Some notes from that game:
— Brooklyn’s pitcher Chris Van Cuyk went 4-5 in the game.
— Gil Hodges, manager of the ’69 Mets, batted 7th for the Dodgers.
— Rube Walker was the Dodgers’ catcher, and the ’69 Mets’ pitching coach.
— Guy named Dick Williams subbed in for Duke Snider late in the game; he is better known as the manager who won two World Series for the A’s in the 70’s.

10) Speaking of Dick Williams, my Mt Rushmore of Oakland A’s managers:
— Dick Williams— Only 3 years, but 3 division titles, 2 World Series titles.
— Bob Melvin— The current skipper is totally underrated, a great manager.
— Tony LaRussa— Won three straight AL titles from 1988-90.
— Art Howe— The movie Moneyball did him a huge disservice; he was an excellent skipper.

9) My Mt Rushmore of Rams head coaches:
— Dick Vermeil— Won Super Bowl XXXIV, the greatest football game ever.
— Sean McVay— Four winning seasons, three playoff spots, hopefully lot more to come.
— John Robinson— Restored team from dumpster fire status in the 80’s, had misfortune of coaching at same time that the 49ers had their great teams.
— Chuck Knox— His Rams were perennial playoff teams in the 70’s.

8) Mike Krzyzewski is going to retire as Duke’s basketball coach after this coming season; he’s been Duke’s coach since 1980, has won five national titles at Duke. Assistant coach Jon Scheyer has been named the next coach— good luck there.

7) I won’t mention the guy’s name, because it is today’s trivia question on this site, but the poor bastard who replaced John Wooden at UCLA went 52-9 in two seasons, but it wasn’t close to being good enough— he left after two seasons, and started up a brand new program halfway across the country. Guy was a hell of a coach, though, but Wooden, just like Krzyzewski will be, was an impossible act to follow.

Some casino should run a prop bet: who replaces Jon Scheyer as Duke’s coach in 2024?

6) There will be scapegoats; Danny Ainge is out as the head of basketball operations with the Celtics- Brad Stevens replaces him. Stevens will help choose his successor as head coach.

Random fact: Celtics have won one NBA title since 1986.

5) Mavericks 105, Clippers 100:
— Road team has won all five series games.
— Luke Doncic had 42 points, 14 assists.
— Dallas was minus-10 in the 5:00 Doncic sat out.

4) Knicks, Wizards, Grizzlies all got eliminated Wednesday night.

3) Two baseball games went over the total in the first inning Wednesday; Cards-Dodgers, and Mets-Arizona.

2) Now there is a story that Colorado Rockies might be hesitant to deal free agent-t0 be Trevor Story, figuring they won’t get that much for him anyway, since the team will only have him for half a season or so.

Not sure the Rockies’ front office has any idea what they’re doing- they already fired the GM earlier this season. Bud Black is a very good manager, but players win games, managers put the players in position to win the games, but if the players aren’t good enough, forget about it.

Losing Story this winter without getting anything in return would be baseball malpractice.

1) How baseball has changed; Game 1 of the 1974 World Series, A’s @ Dodgers. A’s lead 2-1 in the 5th inning, but starter Ken Holtzman struggles, and the A’s replace him with Rollie Fingers, their closer. They put their closer in the game in the fifth inning!!!!

Fingers threw 4.1 innings, gave up one run, before Catfish Hunter got the last out in a 3-2 win. The freakin’ closer got 13 outs in one game, so when you hear people say how modern closers are the best ever, consider that one for a second. Rollie Fingers was bleeping awesome.

************************************************** ******

Friday’s Den: Random stuff with the weekend here……..

13) So you want to be a big league ballplayer?

Travis Blankenhorn was a 3rd round pick of the Twins in the 2015 draft; he didn’t get to AA until 2019, but he made it to the majors last year, getting three at-bats for Minnesota. He can play all over the field, which makes him more marketable.

This season, he’s been a very busy guy:
— He went 2-11 for the Twins’ AAA team.
— He scored as a pinch-runner in his only appearance for the big league Twins.
— May 14, Dodgers picked him up on waivers.

— He went 0-3 for the Dodgers’ AAA team.
— May 24, Seattle picked him up on waivers from LA.
— He went 6-20 for the Mariners’ AAA team.
— June 1st, the Mets picked him up on waivers.
— He’s played in two games for the big league Mets.

Today is June 3rd; this guy has already played for five teams this season.

12) Mets, by the way, have used 45 players this year, the most of any team.

11) Rays 9, New York 2:
— Tampa Bay’s first complete game in five years, 731 games (Ryan Yarbrough)

Michael Kay is New York’s TV play-by-play; he was a whiny baby during this game, crying about the home plate umpire not giving New York any calls. Now he knows how everyone else feels when his team gets all the calls in key spots (Jeremy Giambi was safe at home in 2002!!!!)

10) Oh yeah, that reminds me of Moneyball; why wasn’t the manager (Art Howe) included in the A’s organizational meetings, but Ron Washington (the 3rd base coach) was? And when Howe left the A’s, why wasn’t Washington named manager, instead of Ken Macha?

Washington had to go to the Rangers to become a manager; Texas is one of the A’s rivals, and they let him go there instead of naming him their manager. You wonder how much license the movie makers took when they made Washington such a big part of the film.

9) Suns 113, Lakers 100— Phoenix was up 29 in the first half; not a good look for the Lakers to go out so meekly. An injured Anthony Davis played five uneventful minutes. Devin Booker scored 47 points for the Suns.

8) Nuggets 126, Trailblazers 115— Denver advances in six games; Nikola Jokic had his usual 36 points. Jamychal Green was +22 in 23:00 off the bench.

7) Rockies 11, Rangers 6:
— Texas has lost 15 in a row on the road.
— Colorado may be 4-22 on the road, but they’re 9-2 in last 11 home games.

6) Brewers 7, Diamondbacks 4— Arizona has lost 14 in a row on the road.

5) Pirates 5, Marlins 3— Jacob Stallings hit a bases-clearing double in the 8th inning to score the game-winning runs.

4) Edmonton Eskimos of the CFL changed their name to the Edmonton Elks; they can keep the EE logo on their helmets. Smooth transition; who knew it was so easy?

Someone should tell this to Daniel Snyder, who didn’t have the good sense to switch from Redskins to RedTails, which also would’ve been an easy transition to make.

3) Someone should also tell the Cleveland Indians, who will be rebranding soon, but they’re taking the long way to a new name- their initial list of potential new names consisted of 1,198 names. Lot of names.

My suggestion; Cleveland Spiders- the hats would be awesome and back in the 1890’s, there was a team called the Cleveland Spiders, so it kind of makes sense.

2) New Jersey Devils/Philadelphia 76ers are owned by the same organization, which strikes me as a little odd, seeing how the Devils/Philly Flyers are rivals.

1) There are only three major league baseball games this Monday, and one of those is a makeup game. Sounds like the 2021 schedule was made before they moved the amateur draft to the All-Star break- Monday is the day when the draft was usually held.
