Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

-- Ilya Bryzgalov was two seasons into a $51 million, nine-year contract he signed in 2011, but the Flyers bought out the goalie's contract out, saving them $6M a year off the salary cap for the next seven years.

-- Tigers made six errors in an ugly 14-8 home loss to the Angels.

-- Ichiro Suzuki's walkoff HR Tuesday was just the second of his career; the first was four years ago, against Mariano Rivera.

-- Wyoming's leading returning rusher,. D.J. May suffered a torn pectoral muscle a couple of weeks ago during voluntary summer workouts. The recovery time for the injury is nine months, so he'll probably miss the entire 2013 season.

-- UCLA won its first national title in baseball, beating Mississippi State two straight games; they had 27,127 fans in Omaha for the CWS.

-- If you bet the under on Mets-White Sox last night, don't watch Sports Center today; you won't like what you see.

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud............

13) Bought a new laptop this week and I had to call the Time Warner people to get the right code so I can get on the Internet, so I’m talking to the woman and I ask her where she is. Where do you think Time-Warner’s help desk is? Try Manila in the Phillipines- they’re 12 hours ahead of New York.

12) Miguel Cabrera has been intentionally walked nine times in front of Prince Fielder this season; Fielder is 5-9 with nine RBI in the AB following the intentional walks.

11) In case you’re interested, July 20 is National Lollipop Day. Just thought you’d like to know.

10) According to ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla, who knows stuff, there will be five foreign players in first round of the NBA Draft, three in the top 20.

9) Puigonometry—ESPN.com reports that Yasiel Puig is hitting .531 in at-bats that end in the first three pitches, only .286 in at-bats of 4+ pitches. He’s walked only three times.

8) Canucks/Rangers basically traded head coaches; weird thing is that coaching hockey in Vancouver is the job that is in more of a fishbowl. There is so much going on in NYC, hockey is not the huge deal that it is in British Columbia.

7) Terrible flooding in Calgary; a lot of damage was done to the Saddledome, where the 1988 Olympics were held and where NHL’s Flames have played since—odd sight online was the costume head of (Flames’ mascot) Harvey the Hound floating in the flood waters inside the arena.

6) If you read this website, you know I despite the Bronx Bombers, to the point of never calling them by their actual name, but I will root for them if it helps the A’s, like this week when they play Texas. You have to root for your own team first, even if it makes you root for evil now and then.

5) Rays-Blue Jays is good series between AL East contenders this week, and prospect Will Myers’ home debut was Monday night, but only 11,407 fans showed up in St Pete.

Rays are going to wind up moving and people in the Bay Area will whine, but they haven’t supported this spunky team nearly well enough.

4) Back in the 60’s/early 70’s, not every hitter wore a batting helmet; some guys wore a plastic insert inside their cap. Last two I can remember doing that were Detroit’s Norm Cash and Bob Montgomery, the Red Sox’ backup catcher.

Anyway, I’m thinking some pitchers may take to using those inserts to protect themselves from line drives. Still wouldn’t protect the face, but would protect the areas above the ears.

3) Has anyone ever had a fried bologna sandwich? It sounds awful, but they sell ‘em in Toby Keith’s bar in Las Vegas, so somebody must like them.

2) Of the five major college conferences (SEC-ACC-Big Dozen-Big X-Pac-12), that’s 64 teams (I think…..lol), only five (Kansas State-Ole Miss-Mississippi State-Pitt-Virginia Tech) have never won an NCAA championship in any sport.

1) If you’re a kid who plays college football and your team qualifies for a bowl, which of these three cities would you rather travel to at the end of December? Bronx-Boise-Shreveport?

All three cities have minor bowl games, but I’m thinking Shreveport is by far the most attractive choice. Who wants to go to a bowl game and freeze?

NFL Games of the Year: G-Men Week 6 dogs in Chitown

Odds are out for the biggest and best games of the upcoming NFL season. Covers Expert Bruce Marshall gives you his insight into some of these marquee matchups and predicts where the odds could move before kickoff.

NFL Week 6, Thursday, October 10: New York Giants (+2.5) at Chicago

Past history: NYG 2-1 SU and ATS, 1-2 O/U in three meetings since 2006.

Early look at the Giants: New York’s stop unit fell apart down the stretch last season (especially vulnerable vs. the run) and cost Tom Coughlin's team a chance to defend its Super Bowl crown in the playoffs. Defensive coordinator Perry Fewell is thus desperately seeking some upgrades, and a playmaker to emerge in the front seven after DE Osi Umenyiora departed for the Falcons in free agency. QB Eli Manning remains a force on the attack end, but Coughlin is anxiously seeking some offensive balance, compounded by the fact the roster lacks a proven, heavy-duty RB heading into training camp.

Early look at the Bears: By this point in the season we should have a pretty good idea if the Chicago “O” has been upgraded by the presence of new HC Marc Trestman. Remember, the Bears targeted Trestman specifically for his offensive expertise and history as a QB tutor, with hopes that will translate into more consistency for Jay Cutler. Protecting “Midway Jay” was also a problem in the last meeting vs. the G-Men in 2010. Note that Chicago was only 3-7 vs. the line its last ten games at Soldier Field during the Lovie Smith regime.

Where this line will move: At the moment, Chicago appears to be the greater variable among these two, depending upon the impact Trestman has with the offense. If the Bears are winning and Cutler is putting up big numbers in the early weeks, rest assured the public will force the oddsmakers’ hands.

Five storylines to follow as the CFL season kicks off

THE CANADIAN PRESS

The 2013 CFL regular season kicks off June 27 with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers hosting the Montreal Alouettes. Here's a look at five storylines worth watching this season:

Hawkins era in Montreal

Dan Hawkins has a tough act to follow as the Montreal Alouettes head coach. Not only does he have no CFL coaching experience, he replaces Marc Trestman, who led the club to a 59-31 regular-season record and two Grey Cup wins over five seasons before being named head coach of the NFL's Chicago Bears.

Trestman was regarded as an offensive guru and a quarterback technician. Alouettes veteran passer Anthony Calvillo, 40, flourished under Trestman, throwing for more than 5,000 yards three times and putting up a career-high 43 TD passes in 2008.

Fortunately for Hawkins, Calvillo returns for a 20th CFL season and will have veteran receivers Jamel Richardson and S.J. Green to throw to.

Running back Brandon Whitaker, the CFL rushing leader in 2011, has also resumed practising after suffering a season-ending knee injury last year.

Argos' quest to repeat

The Toronto Argonauts will attempt to win consecutive Grey Cup titles for the first time since 1996-97. Toronto captured the 100th Grey Cup last year with a new head coach (Scott Milanovich) and quarterback (Ricky Ray), and both return with a year together under their belt.

It took Ray some time to become acclimated to Milanovich's offence, but down the stretch the veteran quarterback showed the poise and savvy Argos GM Jim Barker had expected when he acquired Ray in a blockbuster deal with the Edmonton Eskimos. Ray showed a definite chemistry with Chad Owens, who was the CFL's outstanding player.

This off-season Barker acquired controversial defensive tackle Khalif Mitchell from B.C. Mitchell is a former CFL all-star who was suspended twice last season. Despite initially saying he wasn't heading East, the 28-year-old Mitchell will be the anchor of the club's defensive line in 2013.

No Ticats in Steeltown

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats will play their home games in Guelph, Ont., as a new venue is built where Ivor Wynne Stadium, once stood.

The Ticats missed the playoffs last year, costing head coach/GM George Cortez his job after just one season. The club hired former CFL quarterback and head coach Kent Austin as its vice-president of football operations, GM and coach.

A priority was revamping a defence that allowed 32 points (league-high) and 409 yards (second-most) per game. Veteran linebacker Rey Williams, defensive backs Bo Smith and Geoff Tisdale were released while linebacker Shomari Williams, defensive lineman Brian Bulke and defensive backs Evan McCullough and James Patrick were signed.

Offensively, quarterback Quinton Porter and running backs Martel Mallett and Avon Cobourne were released while receiver/returner Chris Williams remains embroiled in a contract dispute.

Riders look to keep the streak alive

Serving as Grey Cup host has proven quite beneficial the last two years. In 2011, the B.C. Lions beat Winnipeg at B.C. Place before Toronto dispatched Calgary in last year's 100th Grey Cup at Rogers Centre. This year's game will be played at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, which puts the onus on the Saskatchewan Roughriders to keep the home streak alive.

The Riders finished third in the West Division last year with an 8-10 record before losing 36-30 to Calgary at McMahon Stadium in the conference semifinal. Saskatchewan last hosted a home playoff game in 2010, defeating B.C. 41-38 in the West Semi-Final after finishing second with a 10-8 record.

The club last won the Grey Cup in 2007, defeating Winnipeg 23-19 at Rogers Centre. This off-season the Riders bolstered their lineup by signing free-agent defensive linemen Ricky Foley and John Chick and defensive back Dwight Anderson while acquiring veteran slotback Geroy Simon from B.C.

Much change in BC

Change was the operative word in Vancouver this off-season.

GM Wally Buono traded such veterans as Mitchell and backup quarterback Mike Reilly (to Edmonton), released others like receiver Arland Bruce III and cornerback Byron Parker while re-signing free-agent receiver Emmanuel Arceneaux as well as quarterback Travis Lulay, offensive linemen Jovan Oliafoye and Ben Archibald and linebacker Solomon Elimimian.

But most significant was trading Simon -- the CFL's all-time receiving yards leader -- to Saskatchewan after 12 seasons in Vancouver. The good news for the Lions is that Buono knows what it takes to succeed in the CFL. He has amassed a league-record 254 career coaching wins and record-tying five Grey Cup titles. He's been named the league's coach of the year four times, second only to Don Matthews, who had five.

Three good teams with bad bullpens burning MLB bettors
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No matter how good a ball team is, a bad bullpen can spoil the party quicker than your parents catching the early flight home from Florida.

Those late-inning collapses especially sting when you're wagering on a good team priced as lofty favorites on the MLB moneylines. Here are three contending teams having their solid efforts - and backers’ bankrolls - wiped out by unreliable relievers:

Detroit Tigers (42-32, -5.89 units)

Starter ERA: 3.58 (sixth in MLB)
Bullpen ERA: 3.99 (21st in MLB)

The Tigers glaring weakness is their bullpen. That statement was punctuated when the club dropped closer Jose Valverde last week after three blown saves and 5.59 ERA out of the pen. Detroit is leaning on Joaquin Benoit to become the new closer while potential pen additions iron out issues in Triple-A Toledo. Lefty Phil Coke has his days but is 0-4 with an ERA north of 6.00.

Cincinnati Reds (45-32, +3.77 units)

Starter ERA: 3.23 (second in MLB)
Bullpen ERA: 3.95 (19th in MLB)

Cincinnati’s relievers came through for bettors as -145 favorites at Arizona Monday night which was almost enough to erase a 5-3 loss to the Pirates last Thursday, in which reliever Alfredo Simon coughed up three runs in the seventh. The Reds have watched leads dissolve in the final innings over the past two weeks, with the bullpen tallying 10 blown saves on the year. Injuries to key relievers and the downfall of closer Aroldis Chapman, who has blown three of those saves, are the main culprits.

Boston Red Sox (45-33, +5.05)

Starter ERA: 3.80 (10th in MLB)
Bullpen ERA: 4.12 (24th in MLB)

The chess match between the Red Sox and Yankees in the American League East could come down to bullpens. New York’s relievers have blown an MLB-low three saves so far while Boston’s bullpen has given 11 wins away in the final inning. The BoSox took recent losses to Detroit and Tampa Bay after their backups crumbled, forcing manager John Farrell, notorious for over-managing his bullpen, to strip Andrew Bailey of the closer role in place of southpaw Andrew Miller, who promptly blew a save in his first outing as closer.
