Saturday’s 6-pack
Over/under win totals for SEC football:
2.5— Vanderbilt (under -140)
5.5— Missouri (under -130)
6— South Carolina (over -150)
6— Auburn (over -120)
6.5— LSU (over -120)
6.5— Mississippi State (over -120)

Quote of the Day
“It felt like a college atmosphere. Definitely not normal. I could visibly see a horse from shortstop pretty easily.”
Nico Hoerner, on playing in the Field of Dreams game Thursday

Saturday’s quiz
Other than Bill Belichick, which NFL head coach has been in his current job the longest?

Friday’s quiz
In the movie Field of Dreams, Burt Lancaster played Moonlight Graham.

Thursday’s quiz
Brett Favre was a 2nd-round draft pick who played 20 years in the NFL; Atlanta Falcons drafted Favre, traded him to Green Bay a year later.

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

Saturday’s Den: Random stuff with the weekend here……..

— Wynton Bernard played CF for the Colorado Rockies Friday, his major league debut after playing in the minor leagues for 11 years, 863 games for four different organizations. He was playing in an independent league two years ago. Can you imagine how freakin’ excited he was to actually be in a major league game?

Bernard went 1-3 in his first MLB game, with a stolen base and a run scored.

— More good news; this week, a friend of mine’s mom had an interview to become an American citizen. She passed the test and next month she will be sworn in as an American citizen, after living here since 1965.

There are lot of people in our country now who seem to want to ruin it; here is a person who can’t wait to become a citizen, so she can vote in November. Congratulations, Doris!!!

— NFL preseason games are fun to watch and all, but if you think teams really want to win those games, that’s not always true.

Thursday night in Foxboro, Patriots lead the Giants 21-20 with 1:55 left; Giants had the ball on New England’s 12-yard line, 1st-and-10.

In a game that mattered, the Giants would run the ball three times, Patriots would call three timeouts, Giants would kick a field goal and New England would have 1:30 or so to rally.

In this game, Giants ran the ball three times, Patriots called no timeouts, Giants kicked a field goal at the gun, and everyone went home.

Preseason games are played for two reasons:
1) make $$$ from ticket sales
2) evaluate players further down the roster

— Exception here seems to be the Baltimore Ravens, who have won 21 preseason games in a row, are 19-2 ATS in those games.

Does it translate to the regular season? Ravens are 5-1 ATS in their last six season openers, 5-1 ATS in last six home openers.

— San Diego Padres’ star Fernando Tatis was suspended 80 games for PED’s, which ends his season; he will also miss the first 32 games next season. Tatis hasn’t played at all this season because of a broken wrist.

By my calculations, the suspension will cost Tatis $3,214,814 in salary— he was supposed to make $5.71M this year, $7.71M next year.

— One of more underrated aspects of NFL offenses is which voice is in the quarterback’s ear; the QB has an earpiece in his helmet, which turns off when the :40 second clock hits :15. Maybe this is why younger QB’s can play sooner in their career than they used to- they can be coached for :25 after every play.

As a Rams’ fan, I’ll never say anything bad about Jared Goff; he won an NFC title game on the road in New Orleans, was 44-23 as a quarterback when Sean McVay was the voice in his ear.

Goff is 3-17-1 otherwise; 0-7 in his rookie year, 3-10-1 with Detroit LY. They were saying on the Lions’ preseason game Friday that they haven’t decided who is calling plays this year, which is odd. Ben Johnson is the 36-year old rookie offensive coordinator for Detroit.

— We mentioned this a few weeks ago, and it still holds; Los Angeles Dodgers are 78-33 this year, with only eight one-run wins (8-9). So if you bet the Dodgers, is it smart to lay 1.5 runs instead of just playing the money line?

— Detroit Tigers fired GM Al Avila, with Detroit 43-71 this season, despite having a payroll of $113M- they’re paying Javier Baez $20M, Eduardo Rodriguez $14M. Aging star Miguel Cabrera is making $32M this year and next; lot of $$ for not a lot of production.

In 2017, Avila traded Detroit’s catcher to the Cubs; the catcher was Alex Avila, his son. Wonder what Mrs Avila had to say about that.

— Speaking of the Tigers, in their game with Cleveland Thursday, the base umpires had a rough time. In the first 3.5 innings, teams challenged three calls on the bases; all three calls were overturned. The dugout reporter on TV said the first base ump was getting hammered by fans near the first base dugout.

— Minnesota Vikings QB Kirk Cousins tested positive for COVID, didn’t make the trip to Las Vegas for the Vikings’ first preseason game. Cousins is unvaccinated, which complicates things a little bit.

— NBA is retiring [NODE="6"]number 6[/NODE] from now on for all teams, to honor the late Bill Russell; players who currently wear [NODE="6"]Special[/NODE] can still wear it, but teams can no longer issue [NODE="6"]Special[/NODE] to a player. Last year, 25 NBA players wore number 6, including Lebron James.

— NIT basketball tournament has most always had its Final Four in Madison Square Garden, but this winter the semis/finals will be in Las Vegas— they’ll be in Hinkle Fieldhouse in 2024, where the climactic scenes of Hoosiers were filmed, in Indianapolis.

— Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo signed a 5-year, $31M contract extension.

— I’m not a huge fan of the movie Field of Dreams; much prefer Kevin Costner’s other baseball movies, but MLB has gone all-in on promoting games in the Iowa cornfield.

I’m curious if MLB would consider playing an All-Star Game in Iowa; the Home Run Derby would be tremendous!!! Even if they had two All-Star Games in one season- they actually did that from 1959-62.

Maybe the Futures Game would work in Iowa; having regular season games there seems like a lot of work for not much return.

— Angels are 9-52 this season when they allow 4+ runs, 40-12 when they do not.

— Astros’ OF Michael Brantley had shoulder surgery, is out for the season.

— Jets QB Zach Wilson hurt his right knee Friday; his backups are Joe Flacco, Mike White. If Wilson’s injury is severe, would the Jets deal for Jimmy Garoppolo? Jets’ coach Saleh came to New Jersey from the 49ers, as did OC LaFleur.

When the Chargers came into existence in 1960, where did they call home?

Saturday’s quiz
Other than Bill Belichick, Pittsburgh’s Mike Tomlin has been in his current head coaching job the longest, followed by Andy Reid in Kansas City.

Friday’s quiz
In the movie Field of Dreams, Burt Lancaster played Moonlight Graham.

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

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday

— Dodgers 13, Royals 3— Dodgers are the first National League team to win 12 straight games by 2+ runs since the Pirates had a 13-game streak that was snapped on August 13, 1922 – exactly 100 years ago.

— Diamondbacks 6, Rockies 0— Jeff Banister was Arizona’s interim manager for this game; he was the Rangers’ manager from 2015-18, making the playoffs twice.

They told this story on the Arizona TV broadcast last night; when Banister was in high school, he had swelling near his ankle, so he went to a doctor, and was told he had bone cancer. One of the options they gave him was amputation of the foot, which Banister turned down— he still wanted to play baseball.

He wound up having seven operations on the leg, but wound up playing ball— he played in the minor leagues for six years, before the Pirates called him up for 1991. He batted once and he singled in his only at-bat, pinch-hitting for Doug Drabek.

Imagine having to decide whether to keep your foot or not? He made the right decision.

— Friday night, White Sox took Michael Kopech out of his start after he threw six no-hit IP on 85 pitches. Why?

This season, Kopech has thrown 104.2 innings; he threw 69.1 last year, and didn’t play in 2020.

There is a thing that once a pitcher throws 20% more innings than he did the year before, then he is much more prone to injury; Kopech is already 50% past last year’s total, so the White Sox are going to be careful with his innings because they need him down the stretch.

— New Jersey Jets got something of a break; QB Zach Wilson’s injury is a bone bruise and a meniscus tear in his right knee— he could be back in 2-4 weeks, much better than what originally feared.

— Two best-ever seasons for NFL receiving yards:
1,964 yards— Calvin Johnson, 2012
1,947 yards— Cooper Kupp, 2021

The common thread between those two seasons? Matthew Stafford was QB for both of them.

— When NFL roster cuts come at the end of this month, 864 guys lose their job; 300 or so of them will sign on to someone’s taxi squad, others will go to the CFL or the XFL or USFL, but these preseason games are interesting in large part because guys are playing for their careers.

— QB named Drew Plitt played at the end of Friday’s game for the Bengals; he was only signed because Joe Burrow had his appendectomy, and they needed another camp arm, but Plitt completed 6-6 passes for 76 yards and a TD in his only drive. Impressive.

Not sure if Drew Plitt will make the Bengals’ squad, but chances are he’s going to be signed by someone; productive quarterbacks are hard to find.

Plitt played five years at quarterback for Ball State, starting the last four years— he threw 1,246 passes in college, so he has a lot of experience in the MAC, where Ben Roethlisberger and Byron Leftwich played (Sean McVay played in the MAC too, but he was a WR).

Ball State went 13-8 the last two years, so Plitt has led a winning program; will be interesting to see where he winds up.

— When the NBA season starts in mid-October, Lakers @ Warriors will be played Opening Night.

— Mets 1, Phillies 0— Jacob deGrom used 76 pitches to throw six shutout innings; he struck out 10, allowed two hits. He’s allowed three runs in 16.2 IP in three starts this season.

— By the way, the Wild Cards in baseball are valuable; right now, three of the six division leaders lead by 10+ games. Would be kind of ho-hum without the Wild Card races.

— Before they rallied to win in the 9th inning Friday, Red Sox had lost 78 games in a row when they trailed going into the ninth inning.

— Deshaun Watson played the first three drives for Cleveland Friday night; Browns didn’t get any first downs on those drives. Watson completed one of five passes, for 7 yards.

How do the Browns handle his playing time the next two weeks? Watson is suspended for at least six weeks; they need to get Jacohy Brissett ready to play in Week 1.

— Buffalo’s rookie punter Matt Araiza had an 82-yard punt Saturday; he was a great punter snd kicker at San Diego State. Usually the punter holds for kicks; but Araiza was also the kicker, so will someone else be the holder for Buffalo’s kicks?

— AFC East odds:
-225— Buffalo
+450— Miami
+450— New England
+2200— NJ Jets

— AFC West odds:
+155— Kansas City
+240— LA Chargers
+260— Denver
+650— Las Vegas

— If the baseball playoffs started today (they do not):
NL: Mets, Cardinals, Dodgers. Wild Cards- Atlanta, Philadelphia, San Diego
AL: New York, Guardians, Astros. Wild Cards- Blue Jays, Mariners, Rays
