Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

-- Georgia 72, Kentucky 62-- Wildcats are now 0-4 on road without Noel; they've got to be a bubble team right now without him.

-- Akron is 24-5, top-seed in MAC, but Alex Abreu, their star PG, is now in jail with on multiple drug charges. Say goodbye to the Zips.

-- Florida State 53, Virginia 51-- Cavaliers beat Duke, then lost at both BC and Florida State. Please go away.

-- LMU 62, San Francisco 60-- Lions went 1-15 in WCC regular season, so of course they spring upsets on consecutive nights in league tourney.

-- Liberty 61, High Point 60-- One of top seeds in Big South goes down.

-- New Mexico State 78, Louisiana Tech 60-- First WAC loss for Tech.

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with the weekend here.......

13) Brian Cashman makes $3M a year as GM of Bronx Bombers; we’re going to see if he’s worth it, as Bombers have been hit with a rash of injuries to their aging squad, so much so that the Big Apple talk show circuit was abuzz with panic late Wednesday.

ARod is probably out for the year, Granderson-Teixeira are done for at least April, and Rivera-Jeter are still recovering from major injuries. Right now, this isn’t a good team, and the way they rip their fans off for tickets, having a bad season isn’t really an option.

Lets see if Cashman can find replacements at 1B/LF and keep things pasted together until Granderson/Teixeira get healthy; that’s what general managers have to do now and then, when they don’t have a huge stack of cash to hide behind. Right now, Dan Johnson looks to be the Bronx 1B.

12) One jackass in NYC media already declared the Minnesota Twins to be “bums….guaranteed to lose 100+ games this season” and suggested the Twins trade Justin Morneau to the Bronx. That’s the Bronx mentality; the other 29 teams should serve as a farm system to their beloved Bombers, but that’s not reality. If Robinson Cano jumps ship after this season, and this is his walk year, it could be a steep decline for the Pinstripers.

11) Do people in China go to the movies? If they do, wonder what they thought watching Moneyball, then finding out Art Howe was the new hitting coach of their national team?

He was woefully misrepresented in the movie, but still, going from winning 100+ games as a big league skipper to being hitting coach of the Chinese National team is quite a drop down the career ladder.

10) Speaking of hitting, why would anyone bat righthanded? Why? What advantage is there to it? I know batting lefty, there is a 2-3 step advantage because you start off closer to first base.

Notice that most of the Japanese players bat lefty.

9) Asian baseball fans get fired up watching games; lot of chanting, singing, thundersticks, just a lot of noise and vocal support. And that’s before their team scores any runs.

8) If I ran the San Diego Padres, and no one thinks I should, I’d go back to the white uniforms with brown and gold trim, but that’s just me. Always liked those uniforms.

7) San Diego State has a basketball player named DeShawn Stephens who got cut from HS team his senior year at Chatsworth High, then played two years at Santa Monica College before joining the Aztecs, where he is playing an average of 21.6 mpg. Good lesson for kids to never give up; how many kids get cut as a senior in HS and wind up playing for a top 20 team?

6) Duke can’t be too worried about Ryan Kelly’s foot anymore; he played 31 minutes in a 30-point blowout win over Virginia Tech, after playing 32 vs Miami Saturday. Blue Devils visit Chapel Hill Saturday night.

Don’t want to hear TV types whining about Duke’s injury woes; if Kelly plays 31 minutes in a 30-point blowout, he is fine.

5) Atlantic 16 (not sure how many teams they’ll have next year, but it seems to go down every year now) has moved its conference tournament from Atlantic City to Brooklyn. Is this a good move?

Its an NBA arena, but for out-of-town fans, is this a better destination to spend a weekend than Atlantic City? I’m asking, I really don’t know, though off the bat, my first answer would be no.

4) I’m watching the crawl of spring training scores on ESPN and I see HR- Crawford (1) so I’m pumped up, figuring Carl Crawford finally batted in a game and hit a homer. Not so fast; turns out it was Brandon Crawford of the Giants. Carl Crawford, the $140M man, has yet to play this spring; he just started hitting off a tee this week. Take your time, big fella.

3) One of the best bosses I’ve ever had posted this on the corner of the whiteboard in his office: “If its not fatal, its no big deal.” More people should follow this advice, including myself.

2) There are rumors that DirecTV will drop the NFL Sunday Ticket after the 2014 season; if that’s true, then I’ll be dropping DirecTV too.

1) I get a text from my cousin during the day this week; it says, “In shock …. Bill Moody died.” Now I have no idea who Bill Moody is, but I assumed it was a friend of his who passed away, so I texted him my condolences.

Turns out that Bill Moody was the real name of the guy who played Paul Bearer, the Undertaker’s manager on the WWE telecasts. Alrighty then.

RIP, Bill Moody. Wonder who his pallbearers were.

Canada, USA big favorites at WBC Friday

Canada and the USA will take the field for the first time at the World Baseball Classic Friday. Canada opens against the Italians, who stunned Mexico 6-5 in Group D play Thursday, while the Americans square off with Mexico.

Here are the odds and a quick preview for both matchups:

Canada at Italy (+192, 9.5)

About Canada: The Canadians received both good and bad news this week. The good news: 2010 NL MVP Joey Votto (Reds) will suit up for the red and white. The first baseman batted .556 for Canada in the 2009 WBC and will surely be a force in the middle of the lineup. The bad news: Third baseman Brett Lawrie (Blue Jays) suffered a rib strain during an exhibition game against the Reds on Wednesday and will miss the entire Classic. Canada will send RHP Shawn Hill (Tigers) to the mound for its opener.

About Italy: The Italians ousted Canada from the competition in 2009 with a 6-2 victory and enter their second game in this year's WBC with a ton of momentum after pulling off a huge upset over Mexico Thursday. Italy received some major contributions from its MLB players in the victory. Anthony Rizzo (Cubs) hit a two-run double off Mexico closer Sergio Romo (Giants) in the ninth inning and Drew Butera (Twins) came through with a two-run blast in the fourth frame to tie the game at 4-4. Closer Jason Grilli (Pirates) escaped a bases-loaded jam in the bottom half to help Italy hold off a late Mexico rally, but exceeded his 30-pitch limit in the process to make him ineligible until Saturday.

Mexico at USA (-260, 9)

About Mexico: Yovani Gallardo (Brewers) has elected to start for his country despite nursing a groin injury. It’s important to note the hard-throwing righty tends to quickly burn through pitches, which could make Friday’s start a short one. WBC rules hold pitchers to a 65-pitch limit in the first round of the competition. First baseman Adrian Gonzalez (Dodgers) solidified his place as the team’s undisputed leader with a strong offensive performance in the opener. Gonzalez went 2-for-2 with 2 RBIs and two walks in the loss to Italy. Ex-MLBer Jorge Cantu also did his part, driving in three runs.

About USA: The Americans have something to prove this year after coming up short in the previous two WBCs. The 2006 club failed to get out of the second round and the 2009 version was eliminated by Japan in the semis. Mark Teixeira (Yankees) sustained a wrist injury Tuesday while hitting balls off a tee and has been replaced by Eric Hosmer (Royals). The United States will send knuckleballer R.A. Dickey (Blue Jays) to the mound against Mexico.

Hawks at Celtics: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Atlanta Hawks at Boston Celtics (-4, 188)

The Boston Celtics have moved a season-high six games over .500 after winning four in a row, including a dramatic 83-81 victory at Indiana on Wednesday. Paul Pierce is dealing with a bone bruise on his left knee, but is expected to be in the lineup when the Celtics host the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. Atlanta and Boston are both battling for playoff position, with the Celtics holding the seventh spot and the Hawks in fifth. The teams split two games at Philips Arena earlier this season.

The Celtics are 13-4 since starting point guard Rajon Rondo suffered a season-ending knee injury, and their improved defense has been a key part of the surge. Against Indiana, the Celtics rallied from a 10-point, fourth-quarter deficit to win after Jeff Green scored with 0.5 seconds remaining. Atlanta, which has dropped two straight in Boston, snapped its three-game losing streak on Wednesday with a 107-96 victory over Philadelphia.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN, Comcast Sportsnet (Boston)

ABOUT THE HAWKS (34-26): Guard Jeff Teague scored a game-high 27 points and recorded his 1,000th career assist in the win over the 76ers, and he’s averaging 20 points while shooting 60 percent in two games against Boston this season. Forward Al Horford, averaging 23.7 points and 11.3 rebounds over the last 11 games, had 24 points and with 13 boards in a 123-111 double-overtime victory over the Celtics on Jan. 25. Forward Josh Smith has had recorded five straight regular season double-doubles against the Celtics while averaging 15.6 points, 11.6 rebounds and 5.4 assists during that stretch.

ABOUT THE CELTICS (33-27): Kevin Garnett, who had a team-high 18 points along with 10 rebounds against Indiana, led Boston with 24 points and 10 boards in the double-overtime loss at Atlanta in January. Guard Jordan Crawford, acquired from Washington at on Feb. 21, has been a valuable addition to the Celtics’ bench while allowing coach Doc Rivers to rest Avery Bradley and Pierce. Crawford is averaging five points in 13.3 minutes with Boston. Bradley, averaging 13.8 points over his last five games, scored a career-high 28 points against Atlanta last season.

TRENDS:

* Celtics are 7-1 ATS in their last eight home games.
* Under is 5-1 in Celtics’ last six games following a win.
* Under is 4-0 in Hawks’ last four road games.
* Hawks are 5-1 ATS in their last six vs. NBA Atlantic foes.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. The Hawks are 28-2 when leading after three quarters.

2. Boston is 18-4 when scoring at least 100 points.

3. Atlanta G Kyle Korver is shooting 46.1 percent from 3-point range to lead the NBA, and he’s made at least one 3-pointer in each of his last 53 games.
