        What trend continues to roll on the diamond?

        Another day on the diamond and another successful day for underdogs against the runline.

        Underdogs put up an 1-4 record against the runline in Wednesday's Major League Baseball action, good for a success rate of almost 74 percent.

        Dogs against the runline continue to be a solid bet this season, hitting just over 60 percent of the time.


        Yankees' Carlos Beltran, questionable Thursday

        Beltran was expected to return on Wednesday after missing the last two games with swelling in his right knee. However he did not return after been hit in the face by a ball during batting practice and is questionable for Thursday against the Indians.


        Jays' Lind out 6-8 weeks with broken foot

        The Toronto Blue Jays are losing designated hitter-first baseman Adam Lind for six to eight weeks with a broken bone in his right foot.

        Lind had an MRI on Tuesday that detected a non-displaced fracture. The foot had bothered Lind this month and he thought it might be a bruise.

        "My mom wanted me to get an MRI -- which I hadn't had yet -- because it wasn't getting any better,” Lind said after the Blue Jays' 8-7 loss to the Angels on Wednesday. "So I asked for an MRI and it showed up."

        The 30-year-old Lind is batting .320 with four home runs and 27 RBIs in 61 games this season.

        The Blue Jays likely will move right fielder Jose Bautista to first base and use Nolan Reimold in right field and as a DH until Lind returns from the injury.

        Lind joins teammates Edward Encarnacion and Brett Lawrie on the disabled list.

                • Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

                  -- If I'm recruiting Lebron James, I offer him the head coaching job and a small stake in the ownership of the franchise. He's that good.

                  -- Rory McIlroy shot 64 at the Scottish Open Thursday; thats a course record. He hit one drive 436 yards; . Must be fun to be that good.

                  -- Masahiro Tanaka has a small tear in his UCL, is out at least six weeks.

                  -- Joel Sherman of the NY Post had a great stat: Bronx Bomber starting pitchers, in 91 games, have gotten only 33 outs after the 7th inning (25 by Tanaka).

                  -- Florida State football coach Jimbo Fisher caught a 6-foot long shark while he was fishing with his family; not sure I'd want to catch a shark.

                  -- Red Sox started five rookies in a game this week; this was the earliest in a season Boston has started five rookies since 1952.

                  **********

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

                  13) NBA teams will soon have corporate logos on front of their jerseys; ESPN.com estimated the Cavaliers will net $3M from such a corporate logo, unless Lebron James comes back home, then the tab could jump to as much as $10M per season.

                  12) CJ Wilson (ankle) goes on the DL; his last four starts have been poor. He'll probably miss only one start, since the four-day All-Star break is next week.

                  11) Underdogs are 10-1 vs spread in Seahawks’ last 11 Monday night home games.

                  10) Has Jason Kidd fired anyone in Milwaukee yet?

                  9) Peter Gammons seemed pretty sure Tuesday that the Tampa Bay Rays would gladly trade away pitcher Jeremy Hellickson, who returned to the rotation from an injury this week; if that’s the case, they’ll probably have some takers.

                  8) Brandon Phillips/Yadier Molina both tore ligaments in their thumb Wednesday, will be out 8-12 weeks. Molina's loss is damaging to the Cardinals, but good news for a veteran free agent backstop, like John Buck or AJ Pierzynski.

                  7) Arizona Cardinals are 2-8 vs spread in last 10 Monday night home games; they’re 9-26 vs number in their last 35 primetime games.

                  6) Jack McKeon was a terrific manager, mainly for the Marlins/Padres; he liked to pick up guys who washed out of New York, assuming that some guys just can’t handle playing in such a big city, but would be just fine in a smaller market.

                  Watched Vidal Nuno pitch for Arizona Tuesday in his first post-Bronx start; he looked terrific, but that was with pitcher-friendly umpire Bob Davidson behind the dish. Have to see one or two more starts before I’m a believer in Nuno-- McKeon’s theory has stood the test of time, though, most notably with Ed Whitson with San Diego in the 80’s.

                  5) Eastern Michigan installed a gray artificial turf football field on its campus, kind of like Boise State’s blue turf, only uglier.

                  4) Nebraska role player Leslee Smith (5.4 ppg, 4.5 rpg LY) tore his ACL in the Caribbean basketball tournament, will miss 4-5 months, bad news for Tim Miles’ improving Cornhuskers.

                  3) In his career, Bears’ QB Jay Cutler is 12-25-2 vs spread as a home favorite.

                  2) On the other hand, Miami QB Ryan Tannehill is 6-0-1 as a home underdog, Andrew Luck is 7-0. Luck doesn’t figure to be a home dog too many more times.

                  1) Life is funny sometimes; the Jets once fired Pete Carroll after only one season as head coach, so they could hire Rich Kotite. Whoops.

                  Then Carroll got the boot in New England after going 27-21 in three years, when he made the playoffs twice- Patriots replaced him with Bill Belichick, so good move by them, but its also worked out really well for Carroll, since he’ll be inducted into the USC Hall of Fame this fall, the same calendar year in which his Seattle Seahawks won their first Super Bowl title.

                  Sometimes getting fired is the best thing that could happen, although I’m sure he didn’t feel that way when it happened.

                      • MLB

                        Friday, July 11


                        Under the hot bet with Wood on the road

                        When Atlanta Braves pitcher Alex Wood pitches away from home, low-scoring games are the norm. In Wood's last six road starts, the Under is 5-1. He'll take the mound for the Braves when they visit the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field Friday.

                        The game is a pick 'em.


                        Reds 2B Phillips out six weeks with thumb injury

                        The Reds have made a push to get back into the National League playoff race, going 24-13 since the start of June to pull within a couple games of the Central-leading Brewers.
                        That streak of good play has survived a big slump from Jay Bruce and an injury to Joey Votto. Now, the challenge is to survive six weeks without Brandon Phillips.

                        Bailey, of course, is starting pitcher Homer Bailey, who had to leave a game early with a knee issue, and Billy Hamilton left one with a tight hamstring. Both seem to be OK, but apparently, a plague of locusts might be next for Cincinnati.

                        Phillips is hitting .272 with seven homers and 40 RBIs this season. With Phillips out, Skip Schumaker is likely the replacement. The veteran utility man is batting .248 in 154 plate appearances this season; he's played only six games in the infield this year, but has played 462 games there in his career.


                        Under trending with Blue Jays as underdogs

                        In the Toronto Blue Jays' last nine games as underdogs, the Under is a sizzling 8-1. The Jays are presently listed as +121 road dogs against the Tampa Bay Rays for matchup Friday.

                        The Rays are currently -131 faves with a total of seven.


                        Kuroda lights out on the Under vs. Orioles

                        If you've been backing the Under when in New York Yankees pitcher Hiroki Kuroda's starts against the Baltimore Orioles as of late, you've been collecting some fantastic profits. In the veteran's last nine outings against the O's, the Under is 8-0-1. Kuroda takes the mound when the Yanks visit Baltimore at Oriole Park at Camden Yards Friday.

                        The Birds are slight -116 faves with a total of nine.


                        These two teams love low totals

                        Scorekeepers have had a light workload in recent meetings between the New York Mets and the Miami Marlins. In the last 17 games between the two clubs, the Under is 13-2-2. The Mets and Marlins renew acquaintances at Citi Field Friday.

                        New York are -111 faves with an O/U of seven.


                        White Sox struggling against Tribe in Cleveland

                        The Chicago White Sox have not been getting it done in Cleveland recently. The Sox have just one win in their last nine meetings with the Cleveland Indians in Ohio, but they'll have an opportunity to right the ship when the two clubs face off at Progressive Field Friday.

                        The Tribe are currently -185 faves on the moneyline with a total of eight.
