Armadillo: Sunday's six-pack

-- White Sox are first team since 1979 to turn three triple plays in same season.

-- Does the nine-team CFL have fantasy football leagues?

-- 7pm baseball games in this country are starting at 8am the next day in Japan.

-- One winning ticket for a $524M Mega Millions jackpot was sold, in Indiana.

-- Think Charlie Strong is on the hot seat at Texas? Longhorns are 11-14 in his two years in Austin-- they lost 24-0 at Iowa State LY. Iowa freakin' State.

-- Over last nine years, Kansas State is 20-8 vs spread as a road underdog.

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday.......

13) I go thru this every year at this time, but it is stupid that the All-Star Game will decide who has home field in the World Series. Mind-numbingly stupid.

This was done as a concession to FOX TV after the tie game in Milwaukee a few years ago, when the All-Star teams ran out of pitchers. Home field in the World Series could be determined by who wins interleague play, or it could just alternate, either option would be significiantly better than this.

12) Because the All-Star Game "matters", All-Star managers get goofy when they select players, making situational relievers All-Stars, while Max Scherzer stays home. The All-Star Game should be for guys having the best year this year, not guys who might help the team win. It is supposed to be a damn exhibition showcase.

11) Red Sox traded for Arizona reliever Brad Ziegler before they announced Craig Kimbrel needed his knee operated on-- price tag might've gone up if Arizona knew the Sox were hurting for a relief pitcher. .

10) Speaking of which, there is nothing more depressing to a fan than when his team starts selling off players in July-- A's will be doing it soon, since Rich Hill and Danny Valencia are both in their mid-30's, so whats the point of keeping them, when maybe you can get a prospect or two for them?

Remember, back on August 12, 1987, the Tigers needed another starting pitcher for the stretch run, so they acquired Doyle Alexander from Atlnata for a minor leaguer?

The minor leaguer's name was John Smoltz.

9) Arizona-San Francisco game Friday night was second one this season where both managers got tossed- first was a Cincy-Pittsburgh game on May 11.

8) Want to know why the NBA's salary cap is going to be as high as $102M in two years? They put over 16,000 fans in the Thomas & Mack Center last night, for the 76ers-Laker game. 16,000 fans for a damn summer league game at $28 a pop? Wow.

7) I know it is only summer league, but Ben Simmons, in his first three summer games for the 76ers, is shooting 7-25 from the floor, scoring just 8 ppg. He's grabbed 25 rebounds, had 19 assists, and the Sixers are +12 with him on the court, but he has looked incredibly uncomfortable shooting the ball, even on shots in the lane.

Defenders are going to play so far off Simmons that the 76ers will wind up playing 4-on-5 on offense when he has the ball, unless he becomes a scoring threat.

6) Oklahoma could be starting a freshman and four sophmores on its offensive line this fall, but three of the sophs started a total of 32 games LY.

5) Mets' pitcher Matt Harvey is having surgery on his shoulder, which includes having a rib taken out of his body, allowing more space for the muscles around Harvey’s neck and shoulder. Hopefully the surgery .can revive Harvey's career.

4) Buddy Hield started his pro career with a 5-20 shooting night (1-8 from the arc) in an 85-65 loss to the Lakers.

3) Angels' 1B CJ Cron was hitting .405 (12-33) with five HRs in July, but then he got hit by a pitch and broke his hand Friday night in Baltimore. He's out for a month.

2) My fantasy baseball team has more players in the Futures Game (3) than in the actual All-Star Game (2), which might be a good thing two of three years from now, but for this season......not so much.

1) Tom Candiotti is working on Arizona TV games this weekend; he usually works on the radio, but his presence reminded me that a few years ago, I'm watching a game with Arizona and the Padres, and Chad Gaudin was pitching- he was on my fantasy team.

Candiotti was a good big league pitcher, he was explaining why Gaudin would never be a good major leaguer-- his argument was so logical and convincing that I went right online and cut Gaudin, while he was still pitching that night. Not my finest moment, but it was the right move. Sometimes you just have to listen and learn.
