    Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

    CBSSports.com took a survey of 100+ college basketball coaches this July, as to who the most underrated coach in the country is. Here are their results……..

    14% of votes—Fran Dunphy, Temple-- Won big at Penn before this.

    9%-- Randy Bennett, St Mary’s—Has Australian pipeline going.

    7%-- Rick Byrd, Belmont—Moving up to OVC this year.

    7%-- Bill Self, Kansas-- #4 seed or better in last 12 NCAA tourneys.

    7%-- Buzz Williams, Marquette—Bad haircut, very good coach.

    7%-- John Calipari, Kentucky—Not that easy having almost a whole new team every year, even if it is loaded with talent. Amazing recruiter.

    5%-- Bob McKillop, Davidson—Curious if St John’s ever tried to hire him- they should have.

    5%-- Bob Huggins, West Virginia— Shifts west this year, now in Big X Conference.

    Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13:Our bottom 8, top 5 in major leagues....

    Wednesday's List of 13:Our bottom 8, top 5 in major leagues....
    Bottom 5 and top 8 in major league baseball…….
    30) Astros—First team since 1982 (and fourth ever) to lose their first 10 extra-inning games in a season.

    29) Rockies—Were in World Series four years ago; it only seems longer.

    28) Indians—Gave up 90 runs during epic 11-game losing skid. Blew 3-run lead in 10th Sunday, then gave up 10 runs in 2nd inning Monday.

    27) Cubs—Youth movement has started; growing pains following.

    26) Royals—21-32 at home. I look at their rotation and don’t see much hope. At least the All-Star Game was fun.

    8) Angels—If Dan Haren is your #4 starter, you’re damn good, as long as Haren is healthy. They’re paying Vernon Wells $24M a year to be #5 OF.

    7) Pirates—34-16 at home, in their beautiful ballpark, where they sell football jerseys at the concession stands.

    6) White Sox—AL Manager of Year will be tight race between Ventura and Melvin of Oakland. .

    5) Rangers— Ryan Dempster bounced back nicely after a rough first start with Texas, beating Red Sox in Fenway.

    4) Braves—32-26 at home, but 31-21 on road. Very hot right now.

    3) Bronx—Ivan Nova is 0-3, 8.36 in his last five starts, which has to be a concern.

    2) Reds—36-20 at home, haven’t missed a beat since Votto got hurt. He’ll be back soon.

    1) Nationals—This is going to be interesting, when they shut down their best pitcher because of an innings limit, with team headed to postseason.

    Old-timers everywhere (and Strasburg’s fantasy owners) are howling in protest, but Nats are following doctors’ advice, and those doctors went to medical school.

          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Wednesday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers
          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          STREAKING

          Tim Hudson, Atlanta Braves (11-4, 3.45 ERA)


          Hudson gave up one unearned run on four hits over 7 1/3 innings against the Astros on Friday. With the win his career record against Houston improved to 5-0 over seven starts. He’s 4-0 with a 2.30 ERA and a over his last four outings and faces the Phillies next, a team he shut out for seven innings on July 6.

          Chad Billingsley, Los Angeles Dodgers (7-9, 3.74 ERA)

          Billingsley allowed a single run on four hits with seven strikeouts over seven innings against the Cubs on Friday. Billingsley has picked up the win in all three starts since coming off the disabled list with an elbow problem and has posted a 0.89 ERA with a 13:3 K:BB ratio in 20 1/3 innings over that span. He'll look to keep the momentum going when the Dodgers host the Rockies.

          SLUMPING

          Justin Masterson, Cleveland Indians (7-10, 4.78 ERA)


          Masterson was ripped for seven runs on 10 hits over four innings of a 10-2 loss to Detroit on Friday. The righty was dinged for eight earned runs in his previous start against the Twins and has seen his ERA inflate to 4.78. Masterson boasted a respectable 3.92 ERA on July 1. He toes the rubber at home against the Twins next time out.

          Jeff Francis, Colorado Rockies (3-4, 6.02 ERA)

          Francis surrendered six runs on nine hits in just 3 2/3 innings against the Giants on Saturday. It was the second straight start in which Francis failed to make it to the fifth inning. Opponents are batting .325 against the lefty and his role may in jeopardy if he can’t string together a few good starts. He draws the Dodgers in his next outing.

                Wednesday's betting tips: Rays' bats rock Blue Jays starter

                Weather watch

                Arizona Diamondbacks at Pittsburgh Pirates – Thunderstorms are in the forecast for PNC Park. The forecast calls for a 30 percent chance of rain for Wednesday’s game.

                Who’s hot?

                Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh – The American beach volleyball duo go for their third straight Olympic gold medal versus countrymen April Ross and Jennifer Kessy. May-Treanor and Walsh are 34 and 35 years old respectively and battled China’s Xi Zhang and Chen Xue for a spot in the final Tuesday. They are -400 faves against Ross and Kessy (+275)

                Who’s not?

                Cleveland Indians – The Tribe have been the regulars in this spot, extending their losing streak to 11 games. Cleveland has sucked Indians backers dry but have provided solid value for fans of the over, going 8-3 over/under during this slide.

                Key stat

                197.4 – The USA men’s basketball team’s games have posted an average of 197.4 total points. The 2012 version of the “Dream Team” has played over in all five of its group stage contests and takes on Australia in the elimination round with a total of 188.5 set for Wednesday.

                Game of the day

                New York Yankees at Detroit Tigers (+132, 8.5)

                Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

                Jose Reyes, SS Miami Marlins – Reyes is nursing a sore right hand and is expected to sit out a game versus his former club, the New York Mets, this week. Reyes is hitting .287 BA with seven home runs and 30 RBIs.

                Notable quotable

                "…Numerous errors in field mechanics, game administration and even the coin toss negatively impacted the quality of the game." -- NFLRA counsel Michael Arnold, criticizing the NFL replacement officials used in last weekend’s Hall of Fame Game.

                Betting news and notes

                --FIFA has delayed suspensions for Canadian soccer players Christine Sinclair and Melissa Tancredi after the two blasted the officials following Canada’s controversial 4-3 loss to the United States in the women’s Olympic semfinal. Canada is a +300 underdog versus France (+100) in the bronze medal match Wednesday.

                -- Through the first week of August, the Braves rank second in the majors in team ERA (2.00). The Phillies are tied for third (2.72). The total for Wednesday NL East showdown is set at eight runs.

                -- New York is 0-8 in its last eight games decided by one run, the longest streak in franchise history since a nine-game stretch in 1944. The Yankees are 56-53 versus the runline for +8.17 units this season.

                -- The current Rays' roster is hitting a blistering .411 against Toronto SP Carlos Villanueva, with SS Ben Zobrist (3-for-5, 3 HR, 5 RBI) the biggest threat. Tampa has won seven of nine meetings between the teams so far in 2012.
