LEADING OFF: Rays lefty Snell makes debut, Gallardo examined
April 23, 2016

A look at what's happening all around the majors today:

NOW PITCHING

Blake Snell, perhaps the top pitching prospect in baseball, makes his major league debut when he starts for the Rays at Yankee Stadium. The 23-year-old zoomed through the minors last season, going a combined 15-4 with a 1.41 ERA at three levels. He struck out 163 in 134 innings.

The lanky lefty will certainly look a little different than most pitchers - he'll be wearing a jersey with his favorite No. 4. The previous lowest number worn by a Tampa Bay pitcher was 11, by Hideo Nomo.

CHECK HIM

The Orioles might learn more about right-hander Yovani Gallardo, a day after he left his start in Kansas City after two innings because of a shoulder injury. Gallardo, in his first season with the O's, is heading back to Baltimore to be examined by the team orthopedist.

''It just didn't feel right,'' Gallardo said. ''The previous starts in the spring and the previous starts I had during the season, I tried to go out there and hopefully it went away, but as the game went on it just kept getting a little bit worse and worse, each and every pitch that I made.''

CRUISING CUBS

Anthony Rizzo and the Cubs try to keep up their streaks when they play the Reds. Rizzo has homered in three straight games and Chicago has taken six straight in Cincinnati, its longest such streak since 1945-46.

STRAIGHT A'S

Oakland tries to improve its 7-0 road record when Chris Bassitt starts at Toronto against J.A. Happ. Every other team in the majors has lost at least twice away from home. The Athletics have won six in a row overall.

TRY AGAIN

Corey Kluber (0-3, 6.16 ERA) has lost all of his starts this season for Cleveland. He'll aim to end that streak when he pitches at Detroit. Kluber won the 2014 AL Cy Young Award when he went 18-9 with a 2.44 ERA for the Indians. He was 9-16 with 3.49 ERA last year.

Some betting props for this week's NFL Draft..........

-- Who gets drafted first? Goff -$185, Wentz +$150

-- Who gets drafted first? Treadwell -$135, Doctson -$105

-- Quarterbacks drafted in first round: Over 2.5 (-$600), under 2.5 (+$375)

-- RBs/WRs drafted in first round: Over 5.5 (+$180), under 5.5 (-$260)

-- Players from SEC drafted in first round: Over 8.5 (+$120), under (-$160)

-- Total Ohio State players drafted in whole draft: Over 13.5 (-$115), under -$125

**********

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday........

13) Hornets 96, Heat 80-- First playoff win for Charlotte in 14 years; they had lost their last 12 playoff games in a row.

12) Charlotte coach Steve Clifford makes around $4M a year now working for Michael Jordan's team, but in 1994-95, he was an assistant coach at Siena College here just outside of Albany, where he made far less than $4M a year.

11) Why did the Knicks let Jeremy Lin go? Never made sense to me; the team was winning when he ran the point, they were fun to watch-- everyone (except Carmelo Anthony) seemed happy. He would still be the best point guard on their roster.

10) Twins' rookie OF Max Kepler was born in Germany; both of his parents are professional dancers over there.

9) Atlanta Braves are 4-13, haven't homered in their last 12 games- could be a very long year on Peachtree Street, but they move into their new stadium next year and have lot of good young prospects down on the farm, not far from the big leagues.

8) There have been 15 pinch-hit homers in the major leagues this month; Cardinals have seven of them.

7) In Japan, the baseball season is 143 games long and Monday is a mandatory day off; during batting practice, they use two cages at once, placed next to each other.

6) I'd watch a Japanese League Game of the Week; could have American graphics and maybe a couple of guys on MLB Network studios analyzing the game wthout going all the way over there. Am curious to see waht their games are like.

5) When minor league teams play doubleheaders, both games are seven innings.

4) A 29-year old African man is facing deportation from Canada after he posed as a 16-year old basketball star and was attracting interest from American colleges.

3) New York Mets scored in top of first inning in six of the eight games on their current road trip- they have 38 games against Philly/Atlanta and 19 more with the dysfunctional Marlins- it must be nice.

2) Dodgers 4, Rockies 1-- Japanese import Kenta Maeda has allowed one run in 25.1 IP in his first four American starts.

1) Has to be hard for ESPN's Jeff Van Gundy to be calling the one-sided Detroit-Cleveland series, seeing as the losing coach is going to be his brother Stan. He does as well as he can hiding the fact that he is rooting for the Pistons.

Red Sox, Astros close series
April 23, 2016

BOSTON RED SOX (8-9) at HOUSTON ASTROS (6-12)

First pitch: Sunday, 8:00 p.m. ET
Sportsbook.ag Line: Astros -140, Red Sox +120, Total 9

Game 1 - Boston 6 Houston 2
Game 2 - Houston 8 Boston 3

Henry Owens and the Red Sox take on Scott Feldman and the Astros in the series finale on Sunday night.

The Astros will look to take the final game of the series behind RHP Scott Feldman (0-2, 4-11 ERA, 10 SO, 7 BB in 15 1/3 innings), who is making his fourth start of the season. The 33-year-old has let up three home runs already on this young season, and he took a step back on April 19 (3 ER in 5 IP vs. the Rangers) after an excellent outing vs. the Royals (0 ER in 6 1/3 IP) on April 13. The Astros have lost all three of Feldman’s starts this season.

On the hill for John Farrell’s club will be LHP Henry Owens, who will be making his first start of the season in front of a national audience on Sunday Night Baseball. The 23-year-old wasn’t particularly impressive in his rookie campaign in 2015, going 4-4 with a 4.57 ERA in 11 starts. The 6’6” starter surrendered 62 hits in 63 innings pitched and recorded 50 strikeouts to 24 walks. The Astros don’t have any key offensive players on the disabled list. For Boston, Pablo Sandoval is on the 15-day DL, thought the former World Series MVP had been relegated to the bench before getting hurt.

Feldman has been in the league since 2005—though most of his career was spent in the American League West—so the the Red Sox have had their fair share of plate appearances against him. 2B Dustin Pedroia has teed off on Feldman, going 10-for-23 with a home run, a double and three RBIs. DH David Ortiz, in the final year of his illustrious career, has also had success against the veteran. Big Papi is 5-for-18 lifetime against Feldman with a pair of home runs, eight RBIs and three walks.

Catcher Christian Vazquez only has five career at-bats against the journeyman, but he’s seen the ball well, going 4-for-5 with two doubles and three RBIs. LF Brock Holt is 3-for-6 with two doubles, a triple and an RBI against Feldman, and CF Jackie Bradley Jr. is 2-for-5.

The Astros haven’t pitched well in the first month of 2016, but they haven’t had any issue putting runs on the board. A.J. Hinch’s club can beat you in a variety of ways, as they hit a ton of home runs and steal plenty of bases. Making his first start of the season, Owens will have his hands full against this club. What’s working in Owens’ favor, however, is that no players on Houston’s roster have ever faced him. The tall lefty will bring an element of surprise, and that might throw Houston’s timing off. It’s worth noting that left-handed hitters (.293) actually hit Owens better than right-handed hitters (.248) did in 2015. First start or not, though, the Astros’ lineup is a difficult one to contend with.

Rookie 1B Tyler White has hit very well this month, as have two-time American League hits leader Jose Altuve and LF Colby Rasmus. Young stars Carlos Correa and George Springer are two of the most talented players in baseball, and while they’ve played well in April, they’re certainly capable of producing at a higher level. Two-time All-Star Carlos Gomez, who was acquired just prior to the non-waiver trade deadline last season, has gotten off to a dreadful start. If he doesn’t start hitting—or at least start showing signs of coming out of his funk—he might be in danger of losing his starting job and being forced to platoon.

LEADING OFF: It's deGrom for Mets, Tigers try to end skid
April 24, 2016

A look at what's happening all around the majors today:

DEGROM RETURNS

Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom starts at Atlanta, back after missing one turn because of a sore right lat muscle and another due to health complications following the birth of his son, Jaxon.

DeGrom said his son had a form of apnea that caused him to stop breathing after falling asleep. Jaxon is doing well now, deGrom said. ''It was definitely scary,'' deGrom said. ''He had to be checked into the NICU and they had to monitor him in there but when all the tests came back and nothing was seriously wrong we were pretty relieved. But at first it was a scary time.''

ALL SMILES

Drew Smyly is coming off consecutive 11-strikeout games and is emerging as an ace for Tampa Bay's staff. Since coming over from Detroit in a trade for David Price, Smyly is 8-5 with a 2.58 ERA in 22 starts with the Rays, including 0-2 with a 2.91 ERA this season. He opposes Michael Pineda at Yankee Stadium.

BOUNCE BACK?

The Tigers have lost three in a row and manager Brad Ausmus kept the clubhouse closed for 30 minutes after the most recent defeat. He called it a ''discussion'' but didn't elaborate after Detroit fell for the sixth time in eight games.

The Tigers will try to get back on track when Shane Greene starts in Cleveland against Carlos Carrasco.

NO STRESS FOR STRAS

Washington ace Stephen Strasburg (3-0, 1.25 ERA) tries to go 4-0 for the first time in his career. The right-hander will start at Nationals Park against the Twins.

NICE IMPRESSION

Mat Latos (3-0, 0.49) is off to the best start of his career. Now in his eighth season, the White Sox newcomer has given up just one run and six hits in 18 1/3 innings over three outings. He pitches next at home against Texas.

WELCOME BACK

Red Sox lefty Henry Owens makes his first big league start this season, pitching at night in Houston. The 23-year-old went 1-1 with a 1.00 ERA in three starts for Triple-A Pawtucket before being called up and had a 4.57 ERA in 11 starts with Boston last season.

Armadillo: Monday's six-pack

--Cal Bears got good news; big man Ivan Rabb will be back for his sophomore year in Berkeley; he is the highest-rated returning player in the country.

-- Astros have allowed 27 first inning runs in 19 games, most in MLB.

-- Lakers fired coach Byron Scott; he is 102-292 in his last five years as a coach, but he did have success with the Nets/New Orleans. You need good players to win.

-- Celtics 104, Hawks 95-- Atlanta has now lost 10 overtime games in a row.

-- Islanders 2, Panthers 1 OT-- Florida hasn't won a playoff series since 1996.

-- Prop bet at South Point: Will the Cuibs win 100+ games? Yes +$150, No -$170

**********

Armadillo: Monday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend......

13) Tremendous day of games today, lot of good stuff. Washington beat the Twins in 16 innings, in a game with 516 pitches thrown, 27 players used, 14 pitchers. Game took 5:56, with 27 hits and 32 strikeouts. Great fun.

12) Cubs are already 6-1 against Cincinnati this year; they've outscored the Reds 60-20 in those seven games. Reds are not a good baseball team.

11) Yesterday's quiz answer was Hideo Nomo as author of the only no-hitter at Coors Field; Nomo pitched in Denver 10 times. In his other nine starts, aside from the no-hitter, Nomo was 2-1, 9.67, allowing 11 HRs in 44.2 IP.

10) Pitcher Shelby Miller wound up playing left field for Arizona in the 13th inning yesterday, as SS Nick Ahmed got thrown out for arguing balls/strikes and the Snakes were out of position players. Pitchers Zack Greinke and Jon Niese both had pinch-hits in the game.

9) Braves' catcher AJ Pierzynski has 1,999 hits; he will become the 10th catcher ever to get 2,000 hits. Pretty impressive; was surprised when I heard it.

8) Mat Latos is early leader for Comeback Player of the Year; he is 4-0, 0.74 in four starts for the White Sox. In 2014-15, he was a combined 9-15, 4.16 in 37 starts for four different teams.

7) Saturday night in Las Vegas, four guys bet a cab driver $100 he wouldn't drive thru the In 'n Out Burger drive-thru lane in reverse; they lost.

6) Hall of Fame pitcher Don Drysdale's widow, Anne Meyers, who was a great hoop player at UCLA, sold lot of her late husband's memorabilia; his 1963 and 1965 World Series rungs netted just under $200,000 combined.

5) Tanner Roark was awesome Saturday, whiffing 15 Twins in a 2-0 Washington win; he threw 121 pitches, most by any major leaguer this season.

There was a Twitter debate this weekend, where guys were talking about high school coaches having kids throw 160+ pitches in a game. No bueno.

4) Of the 183 NHL teams who trailed playoff series 3-0, only nine forced a Game 7; those nine teams went 4-5 in the Game 7.

3) Do big league teams shift too much? Some ex-players in TV booths this weekend were discussing this- their consensus seemed to be that a star pitcher like Kershaw should have veto rights over any shifts, but you have to earn the right to have veto rights over the manager. It is an interesting debate.

2) Los Angeles Clippers have never led a playoff series, 3-0. Ever.

1) Phil Simms came out and said Jared Goff is the 3rd-best QB in this week's draft; he may be right or may be wrong, but I don't give rat's ass what Simms says about QBs, despite his having been a very good player himself.

Long time ago, Simms shredded Ben Roethlisberger on Mike Francesa's Sunday radio show when Ben was a senior at Miami; he denies it now, but I remember listening to it and then laughing when Big Ben became such a good player.
