Monday’s 6-pack

First six picks in this month’s NFL Draft:
1) Panthers (from Chicago)
2) Texans
3) Cardinals
4) Colts
5) Seahawks (from Denver)
6) Lions (from LA Rams)

Quote of the Day
“We didn’t execute the priorities of the game plan. Get back. Execute half-court defense and get rebounds.”
Memphis Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins, after Sunday’s 128-112 loss

Monday’s quiz
Stan Kroenke owns the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams; which NBA team does he also own?

Sunday’s quiz
Pete Rose won Rookie of the Year in 1963; he played second base that year.

Saturday’s quiz
Peyton Manning was the #1 pick of the 1998 NFL Draft; Ryan Leaf was the #2 pick in that draft, selected by the Chargers.

************************************************

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports weekend……..

Clippers 115, Suns 110— Kawhi Leonard scored 38 points; Russell Westbrook added 8 assists, 11 rebounds (he was 3-19 shooting), but the story of the game was the Clipper bench. LA’s four subs that played were a combined +53. Suns’ subs were a combined minus-54,

Heat 130, Bucks 117— Jimmy Butler scored 35 points, had 11 assists. Giannis Antetokounmpo hurt his back, played only 11:00; Bucks made only 11 of 45 3-point shots. Miami made 15-25 3-point shots. Heat G Tyler Herro broke his right (shooting) hand.

Lakers 128, Grizzlies 112— Memphis was 35-6 at home this year, but LA outscored Grizzlies 69-47 in second half. Ja Morant aggravated a right hand injury; his status for Game 2 in unclear. Rui Hachimura scored 29 points for the Lakers.

Nuggets 109, Minnesota 80— Denver was only home team to win Sunday; they outscored Minnesota 32-14 in third quarter. Timberwolves looked little tired after their play-in games during the week.

— Oakland A’s are 3-13 this year, their owner is a cheap bastard who turned a $29M profit last year, even though he fielded a minor league team against a major league schedule, but for a little while Sunday, none of that mattered.

A’s honored their 1973 World Championship team Sunday, too bad only 17,645 fans showed up. Reggie Jackson was even there; he has very rarely showed up in Oakland for any events to honor the past. Wore his number 9 jersey too, spoke to the crowd. It was excellent.

A’s players/coaches are trying really hard, competing, they’re simply not good enough.

— Trevor Bauer made his debut in Japanese baseball over the weekend; he pitched for the Yokohama BayStars’ minor league team, giving up four hits and no runs while striking out six in four innings before 2,600 fans. Bauer hasn’t pitched competitively since 2021; he is expected to get one more minor league start, before he makes his debut with the BayStars.

— Doug Pederson coaches the Jacksonville Jaguars; he obviously won a Super Bowl with the Eagles. Pederson was in Memphis for a USFL game Sunday; his son Josh is a tight end with the Houston Gamblers. He caught two passes for 23 yards in Houston’s first game, a 29-13 loss.

Seattle 1, Colorado 0— Jarred Kelenic drove in the only run and made a great catch in the 8th inning that prevented the tying run from scoring.

More good news for Seattle: Luis Castillo threw 7 shutout innings.
Bad news for Seattle: Mariners’ DH’s are 5 for 56 so far this season.

Arizona 5, Miami 0— Zac Gallen allowed only two hits in 6.2 IP against the team that traded him, outdueling Sandy Alcantara.

July 31, 2019, Marlins traded Gallen to Arizona for Jazz Chisholm, an interesting trade. Since then, Gallen has gone 23-20, 3.13 in 78 starts for the Diamondbacks. I’m thinking Arizona got the best of this deal; pitching is kind of important in baseball.

Phillies 14, Reds 3— Philadelphia scored nine runs in the top of the first; they had five players with 3+ hits in this game.

Brewers 1, Padres 0— San Diego just seems lethargic; getting blanked by Wade Miley isn’t a good thing. Fernando Tatis Jr is expected to bat leadoff when he returns from his suspension Thursday; we’ll see if that helps any.

Rangers 9, Astros 1— If you bet under 8 in this game, skip ahead to the next item; this game was scoreless after six innings, yet still got over the total. This is the latest the Rangers have been in first place since the last time they made the playoffs, in 2016.

— I misspoke here couple of weeks ago, when we were talking about Florida Atlantic moving up to the AAC next year. I said FAU-Houston basketball matchups would be interesting in the AAC, but the Cougars have bolted to the Big 12, meaning that FAU will be one of the best hoop teams in the AAC next fall, if not the best team.

— West Virginia had a rough couple years in basketball, going 11-25 in conference games the last two years, but Bob Huggins ain’t messing around this spring. He’s already added a point guard from Arizona (Kerr Kriisa), two of Manhattan’s best players and a big guy (Jesse Edwards) who averaged a double/double for Syracuse this past season.

MLB teams’ records in series, so far this season:

Arizona 2-1-2
Atlanta 4-1
Cubs 3-1-1
Cincinnati 1-2-2
Colorado 0-3-2
Dodgers 2-2-1
Miami 3-2
Milwaukee 4-1
Mets 4-1
Philadelphia 1-3-1
Pittsburgh 2-2-1
St Louis 2-2-1
San Diego 1-2-2
San Francisco 2-3
Washington 0-4-1

Baltimore 3-2
Boston 3-2
White Sox 0-4-1
Cleveland 3-2
Detroit 2-3
Houston 1-3-1
Kansas City 1-4
Angels 3-2
Minnesota 3-1-1
New York 4-0-1
Oakland 0-5
Seattle 2-3
Tampa Bay 4-1
Texas 3-2
Toronto 4-1

If the baseball playoffs started today (they do not):
NL: Braves, Brewers, Arizona. Wild Cards: Mets-Cubs-Pirates
AL: Rays, Twins, Rangers. Wild Cards: Guardians-Blue Jays-New York

Tuesday’s 6-pack
Major league leaders in total bases:
45— Matt Chapman, Tor
44— Pete Alonso NYM/Bo Bichette Tor
43— Rafael Devers, Bos
42— Ronald Acuna Atl/Matt Olson Atl
41— Wander Franco TB/Bryan Reynolds Pitt/Patrick Wisdom Cubs
40— Xander Bogaerts, SD

Quote of the Day
“The issue I have: I don’t think he plays hard every snap.”
Former NFL GM Rick Spielman, talking about Georgia DT Jalen Carter, who will be a first round pick in the NFL Draft

Tuesday’s quiz
Since 2020, which NFL team has started the most quarterbacks?

Monday’s quiz
Stan Kroenke owns the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams; he also owns the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche.

Sunday’s quiz
Pete Rose won Rookie of the Year in 1963; he played second base that year.

*****************************************************

Tuesday’s Den: Nobody asked me, but……..

— I’m sitting here at 1:45am watching NHL playoff games that are live on TV— Kings just won on a power play goal in Edmonton, Dallas-Minnesota is in a second overtime. You don’t see many penalties called in overtime, but both of these games had one.

When I was in grade school/high school, long time ago, I was a huge hockey fan, used to listen to a ton of games on this portable radio my parents had that could get stations as far away as St Louis or Chicago. I was a big Boston Bruins fan, listened to all their games, with Fred Cusick, Johnny Pierson and later on, Bob Wilson on the call.

Great thrill for me was meeting Bobby Orr at a minor league baseball game after he retired; he was playing in a charity softball game. Very nice man; still have the picture from that night here in my living room.

When I got to college, I got involved in college basketball, and ESPN started up, which really made college basketball the huge thing it has become, and hockey kind of drifted off into the background for me, but I do remember how freakin’ exciting overtime games are once you get into the playoffs.

Was fun watching these games; Minnesota just scored to win their game. Weird that they’re playing Dallas; the Dallas Stars used to be the Minnesota North Stars and when they bolted to Dallas, that’s how the Minnesota Wild came to be, way back in 2000.

NHL playoffs are way better than the NBA’s version; just a lot more dramatic, more upsets.

— NBA teams keep 75% of their playoff ticket revenue, a higher share than NHL (65%), MLB (55%), and NFL (0%) teams.

According to Lev Akabas, Golden State’s run of 12 home playoff games last year grossed their franchise roughly $100M, so they kept $75M of that, give or take.

— Speaking of Golden State, before this series with Sacramento, the last time the Warriors started a playoff series on the road was in 2014, against the Clippers.

— Sacramento 114, Golden State 106— Last time the Warriors were down 2-0 in a series was 2007, when Steph Curry was still at Davidson. Sacramento scored 17 points in the 1st quarter, 41 points in the 2nd quarter. Kings’ subs were a combined +15 in this game.

— Quiz of the Day, part 2: Which three NBA players have won the most playoff games together?
(Answer below)

— Philadelphia Eagles’ QB Jalen Hurts signed a 5-year, $255M contract Monday, with $179.3M of that money guaranteed. Eagles are 25-13 with Hurts as their QB, 2-2 in playoff games.

— According to football expert Warren Sharp, these NFL teams have the easiest schedules for the coming season (before we see who plays who on which dates)
32) Saints
31) Falcons
30) Panthers
29) Colts
28) Bears

NFL teams have the hardest schedules for the coming season
1) New England
2) Buffalo
3) Kansas City
4) Las Vegas
5) Miami

— The last three seasons, only two NFL teams started the same quarterback for all their games: Buffalo (Josh Allen), Tampa Bay (Tom Brady).

— Utah State G Steven Ashworth transfered to Creighton Monday, a big get for the Bluejays. Ashworth scored 16.2 ppg this past year, dished out 4.5 assists/game, shooting 43.4% from 3-point range.

— Answer to Quiz of the Day, part 2:
Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker won 126 playoff games with the Spurs.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Michael Cooper won 110 with the Lakers.

— Only NBA players to score 30+ ppg, shoot 50% from floor, 90%+ from foul line in a season:
2015-16— Steph Curry 30.1 ppg, 50.4% from floor, 90.8% on line

2022-23— Shai Gilgeous-Alexander 31.4 ppg, 51% from floor, 90.5% from line

— Arkansas has added five transfers already this spring; those five players averaged a combined 64.8 ppg this past season.

— Jaren Jackson Jr of the Memphis Grizzlies is the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year.

— Arizona 6, St Louis 3— Diamondbacks (10-7) are only NL West team over .500; they lead the Dodgers by two games, San Diego by 2.5 games.

— Pirates 14, Rockies 3— Games like this get managers fired; it is only April, so Colorado won’t be firing Bud Black anytime soon, but the Rockies looked like a high school team in this game, and a bad high school team. Pirates ran the bases at will, made Colorado look terrible.

— Angels 5, Red Sox 4— Rainy Patriots’ Day in Boston; both starting pitchers came out after a third inning rain delay. One thing about the new, balanced schedule; when the last game of a non-divisional series gets rained out, making it up will be a logistical nightmare, since teams only visit the same city once a year.

— Rangers 4, Royals 0—Jacob deGrom threw four no-hit innings, then left with a wrist injury after throwing 58 pitches. Texas is 10-6 and leads the AL West, but they’ll need deGrom to be healthy for them to get to the playoffs.

— Astros 9, Blue Jays 1— Houston scored seven runs in the bottom of the first inning, coasted from there.

— Reds 8, Rays 1— Tampa Bay lost three of last four games, after a 13-0 start; this was the Rays’ 17th game, only their fourth game outdoors, the first one since April 5.
