Friday’s 6-pack:
Early season college football spreads:
— Kansas State (-3.5) vs Iowa State
— Kansas (-14) vs Fresno State
— Western Kentucky (-8.5) vs Sam Houston State
— Stanford (-2.5) vs Hawai’i
— Boise State (-9.5) vs South Florida
— Rutgers (-10.5) vs Ohio U
Quote of the Day
“I’m thrilled with the group we got tonight. We’ve got some guys who play the right way, move the ball the right way and have some untapped skills there.”
Brooklyn Nets GM Sean Marks, on his team’s five 1st round draft picks
Friday’s quiz
In the history of the Tampa Bay Rays, who has gotten the most hits?
Thursday’s quiz
Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott has the biggest salary cap hit this coming season ($51M)
Wednesday’s quiz
In his NFL career, Chiefs TE Travis Kelce has scored 77 touchdowns in the regular season; his first NFL TD came against the Miami Dolphins.
************************************************
The 5th pick in the draft gets a 4-year contract worth $40M; if he were to play overseas next year and eschew playing for Utah, the Jazz would keep his draft rights, so doubtful that happens.
If he totally sits out next year (he can’t play in college anymore), he could go back into the 2026 Draft, but sitting out a full year isn’t a genius move.
Turning down $40M for four years, and delaying the (often lucrative) second contract would be a bold move. This will be interesting to follow.
— Really good players are found all over; these players weren’t drafted in the 1st round:
33rd pick- Jalen Brunson
35th pick- Draymond Green
39th pick- Chris Middleton
41st pick- Nikola Jokic
57th pick- Manu Ginobili
— Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the 11th player taken in the 2018; he’s been traded twice already, to the Clippers the night he was drafted, and then again a year later.
Whoops.
— NBA free agency starts in four days, the NBA Finals just ended, but the Knicks still don’t have a coach; what the BLEEP are they doing?
They made the Eastern Conference Finals this year for the first time in 25 years, then fired their coach, Tom Thibodeau. Why? Who will they hire who is a better coach?
— NBA champ Oklahoma City Thunder doesn’t have any free agents this summer, so their roster is their roster, at least for next season.
— ESPN put former Warriors GM Bob Myers and former NBA executive Bobby Myers on their coverage for the 2nd round. More talk about basketball, less talk about players’ parents— that is a good thing.
— College basketball schedules are going to increase from 31 to 32 games, starting in 2026-27; hopefully this will result in more interesting non-conference games.

— Last three years on June 25th, MacKenzie Gore pitched against the Padres in San Diego:
6-25-23- W8-3. Allowed a run in 5 IP.
6-25-24- L9-7. Allowed five runs in 5 IP.
6-25-25- L1-0. Allowed a run in 6 IP.
— Astros’ SS Jeremy Pena has switched agents to Scott Boras; he has already turned down a deal worth $100M. Seeing how Alex Bregman also has Boras as an agent, seems likely that Pena will be bolting Houston in the near future.
— Visiting players with the most hits against the Mets at Citi Field:
122- Freddie Freeman
79- Bryce Harper
— There were seven shutouts in the major leagues Tuesday night, tied for 2nd-most ever in one night; in case you were wondering, the record is eight, which happened on June 4th, 1972.
— Trade deadline in baseball is July 31st, but with so many teams in playoff contention, will there be a lot of players up for grabs?

Friday’s Den: Notes on basketball, baseball……..
— Utah Jazz drafted Ace Bailey with the 5th pick in the first round Wednesday night, but apparently he doesn’t want to play there. Rumors had him wanting to play for either the Nets or the Wizards.The 5th pick in the draft gets a 4-year contract worth $40M; if he were to play overseas next year and eschew playing for Utah, the Jazz would keep his draft rights, so doubtful that happens.
If he totally sits out next year (he can’t play in college anymore), he could go back into the 2026 Draft, but sitting out a full year isn’t a genius move.

Quote of the Day
“The way this works, the conversations start to happen around now and kind of comparing notes with other GMs, and that’s been going on the last few days.
People are making their preparations, they understand that we’re not committed to a path yet, but we’re doing preparation in both directions and have an understanding of where that might go. So we want to keep playing, keep giving this team that we think is very talented, but unfortunately has started off with a bad record, as much chance as we can.
But we’re gonna have to ultimately make a decision at some point here in July.”

Quote of the Day
“We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Dave Parker. A beloved member of the Pirates family, ‘The Cobra’ was one of the most dominating and intimidating players to ever wear a Pirates uniform. All of us who grew up in the ’70s remember how special Dave was. He was an All-Star, a Gold Glover, a batting champion, a National League MVP and a critical part of the 1979 Pirates World Series Championship team.”
Pirates owner Bob Nutting
