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

Monday’s Den: Major League trends, after the first five series…….​

Before we start with our baseball trends today, I’d like to congratulate Pat O’Connor, Justin Hoffman on their induction into the New York State Basketball Hall of Fame. Both guys were on the 1998 Schenectady High team that won the NYS Public High School championship.
One of the most fun things I’ve ever done was from 1993-2001, being an assistant coach for the basketball team at Schenectady; I was the nerdy analytics guy, I scouted opponents and helped with game management. It was a great educational experience.
Pat O’Connor was a lefty, a coach on the floor, a leader. He was kind of like the Draymond Green of that team, and this is a compliment. He went on to play college ball at Utica College.
Justin Hoffman was more of a scorer, skilled with the ball in his hands; a solid rebounder, he would’ve scored a lot more points on a lesser team, but one of our other big guys wound up playing in the NBA, so Justin’s opportunities were somewhat limited. He was a terrific player in college, at NYU.
Congrats fellas, it was great fun watching both of you play!!!

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

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

— Sunday night in Los Angeles, Cubs OF Pete Crow-Armstrong went 3-for-4 with two home runs and a triple, really good night, especially for a guy hitting .257. Monday night against the Padres, Crow-Armstrong had three more hits in a 10-4 San Diego win.
PCA is the son of actress Ashley Crow, who was the mom in the 1994 movie Little Big League, when a 12-year old kid inherits the Minnesota Twins from his grandfather.

— PCA had 11 total bases Sunday night; all-time record for most total bases in a game belongs to Shawn Green, who in a 2002 game for the Dodgers, went 6-6, with four home runs and a double, with 6 RBI, scoring six runs in a 16-3 Los Angeles win.

— Cubs P Justin Steele is out for the year, will have surgery to fix the flexor tendon in his left elbow. It is unknown whether he will have Tommy John surgery or some other kind, but he is done for this season, and probably part of next year.

— NBA’s New Orleans Pelicans fired GM David Griffin Monday; they went 209-263 while he was the GM, during which time they traded Anthony Davis and drafted Zion Williamson, who has played in only 45% of the Pelicans’ games in his career.

— Phoenix Suns fired coach Mike Budenholzer after only one season, after he signed up for five years, $50M last year, so he gets $40M to take a hike.
Suns were 36-46 this year, after making the playoffs the last four seasons; next year the Suns will have their fourth head coach in four years.
Budenholzer is 576-411 as an NBA head coach, 56-48 in playoff games. He won an NBA title with the Bucks four years ago. Maybe the problem wasn’t him.

— NBA playoffs start tonight, with pair of play-in games:
Hawks @ Orlando
Grizzlies @ Golden State

— TV recommendation: Your Friends & Neighbors, with John Hamm— A hedge fund manager loses his job, then resorts to burglary, targeting wealthy neighbors to maintain his family’s lifestyle. The first episode was on Prime Video last week; too early to tell for sure, but that episode was very good.

— Famous birthdays, April 15th:
Julie Sommars, 85
Ted Kwalick, 78
Michael Cooper, 69

Antonio Cromartie, 41
Danny Jansen, 30

Detroit is 10-6, leads AL Central by 1.5 games.

Tampa Bay led 14-1 in the third inning; rough night if you have Tanner Houck on your fantasy team- he gave up 12 runs in 2.1 IP. 12 of the 20 batters he faced scored. Last time a Red Sox pitcher gave up 12 runs in a game was in 1962, long time ago.
Kameron Misner homered twice for Tampa Bay.

— Giants 10, Phillies 4

Dustin May allowed three baserunners, one run in six IP.
Colorado has lost four games in a row, is now 3-13.

— Don’t get a lot of thunderstorms at 1am in April, but that’s what is going on here as I type this; of course, there was an earthquake in California, too. Weird weather.
