Weekend list of 13: Random thoughts on a windy day......

13) If you like magazines and you want to learn about sports, you read The Sporting News, not Sports Illustrated.

12) Billy Joel is here in Albany Tuesday; tickets for Row K in Section 101 are $80 a pop. Thats an expensive Tuesday night.

11) College football honchos wisely changed clock rules back to what they were in 2005, which will increase amounts of the plays teams run by roughly 14 a game. Good for them.

10) How does the DA in Durham keep his job? Seriously, he tried to ruin lives of three college kids and he gets to keep a high-paying job? Why doesn't Oprah put those three kids on her show and complain how they were falsely prosecuted?

9) Carl Crawford hit inside-park homer Friday night, helping Devil Rays end Santana's long regular season home winning streak, a night after he committed the worst baserunning error I've ever seen by a big leaguer.

8) Tampa was tied 2-2 in 9th Thursday; they had man on first, no one out, when Crawford lines double to rightfield corner, but he tries to stretch it to triple, not knowing that runner in front of him had stopped at third. Zobrist gets in rundown as Crawford stood at third, which was bad, but not as bad as.....

7).......Crawford trying to go back to second as Zobrist is put out between home and third. Crawford gets thrown out, and Rays have bases empty, two out after a double. Inning ends, first Minnesota batter in bottom of ninth homers, game over.

Whoops.

6) NBC has hired the outrageous Don Cherry to work on the Stanley Cup final telecasts; the former Bruins' coach, who is (or at least, he used to be) an advocate of fighting in hockey, could be just what this country needs for NHL telecasts.

5) Last year in major leagues, only ten games were played all season where starting temperature was under 45 degrees. So far, through Thursday's games, there were 32 such games in this month alone.

4) Nationals are the first major league team ever that failed to score a single run in first three innings of any of their first 10 games. That new ballpark they're building down there better be something, to draw fans in to watch this terrible team.

3) When Rangers won in Atlanta Thursday, they snapped a 10-game losing streak in playoff series openers.

2) If Jeremy Shockey and Plaxico Burress won't go to New Jersey for offseason workouts with Eli Manning, why doesn't Eli head to south Florida for workouts? In this day and age, QB and receivers need as much practice as possible.

1) Can I apply for the Hawai'i coaching job? Is it too late?

Washington Nationals at New York Mets: Mets -1 ½, -130

The NL afternoon action starts off at Shea Stadium with perhaps the league’s worst team visiting its best.

The Nationals have a nice prospect in lefty Matt Chico, who’ll face the Mets on Sunday, but if he were on a team with any depth in the pitching staff, Chico would still be honing his skills in the minors.

As it stands, he’s learning on the fly with spotty results so far – he allowed 10 runs in his two starts and didn’t pitch five full innings in either one. That’s putting an excessive burden on an already overworked bullpen.

Mets starter John Maine faced the Nationals three times in the second half last year and New York won all three games as a heavy favorite, twice delivering on the runline.

San Francisco Giants at Pittsburgh Pirates: Giants -105

Matt Cain faces Ian Snell in a battle of potential aces. Both have good to great stuff and have already showed it off in each of their two starts.

The difference on Sunday afternoon at PNC Park is the lineups they’ll each face.

Pittsburgh remains a poor hitting club against right-handed pitching, especially with left-handed Adam LaRoche striking out every second time at the plate and unable to get on track.

The Giants had been struggling mightily at the plate, but Barry Bonds’ pair of homers on Friday night woke up the entire lineup.

"It was a great day for Barry," manager Bruce Bochy told reporters after the game. "We're trying to get this offense going, and he really made that happen."

Texas Rangers at Seattle Mariners: Rangers -115

Right-handed starter Brandon McCarthy came to Texas in the offseason with a bit of pressure on him to eat up innings in the middle of the rotation. The pressure on McCarthy, who starts Sunday, was alleviated a little when the Rangers activated closer Eric Gagne from the DL Friday.

Gagne immediately went to work and recorded a save in Texas’ 5-2 win. The game worked out exactly like every Rangers fan had dared to hope in the offseason and Akinori Otsuka made things easier when he happily conceded the closer role to play Gagne’s setup man.

"For the team, this is great," Otsuka told the Dallas Morning News. "My role may change, but I'm going to do everything exactly the same as I did when I was closing. I'm excited to see what I can achieve in this role."

Horacio Ramirez finally makes his first AL start for Seattle after being scheduled to do so earlier this month.

San Diego Padres at Los Angeles Dodgers: Padres -120

The Dodgers chased David Wells early in Friday’s 9-1 series-opening win over the Padres but San Diego managed to finish the game without tiring any of its elite relievers.

That bodes well for the Padres, especially on Sunday when they have an edge with Chris Young starting against L.A.’s Randy Wolf.

San Diego made the postseason last year largely thanks to its 13-5 record against the Dodgers. Already down a game after Friday, the Padres will do their level best to match that record in 2007 and they have the pitching staff to do it.

Anaheim at Minnesota
The Ducks did a good job of dictating the pace and limiting Minnesota's scoring chances in taking the first two game of the series. The Wild have struggled all season with the power play on the road and their performance at The Pond was no different as they went 0-for-10 with the man advantage, plus a short-handed goal given up Friday night. While Minnesota should benefit from returning home, the aggressive forechecking and defense of the Ducks are likely to continue to frustrate the Wild and give them a good chance at stealing Game 3 according to Dunkel, which has Anaheim favored straight up by 1/2 a goal. Dunkel Pick: Anaheim (+1 1/2). Here are all of today's games.

Chicago at Washington
The Bulls need a win today to stay ahead of Cleveland as they pursue the No. 2 seed in the East. Chicago has the best record in the conference since the All-Star break (19-7) and has won five of its last six against the spread with the only loss coming against a hot Toronto team. The Wizards finally did get a win against the lowly Hawks on Friday, but injuries to Caron Butler and Gilbert Arenas have clearly taken a toll as Washington had dropped six straight prior to the Atlanta game. Chicago looks like a good pick to cover the Vegas line (-5 1/2) according to Dunkel, which has the Bulls favored by 10 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Chicago (-5 1/2). Here are all of today's games.
