Two reasons the projection lands on Cincinnati Reds: Boston Red Sox’s scoring margin profile and Boston Red Sox’s recent stretch. Bullpen rest day is the sneakiest input — a long man on the mound erases a 3-run lead in two innings.

Rafty’s call: ✗ WRONG
Pre-game pick: Boston Red Sox at 87%. Actual: Cincinnati Reds by 1.

Formula: expected win rate from points-for vs. points-allowed (anchored), scoring margin, recent form, and home/venue edge, adjusted by league volatility. Refreshes whenever the venue/game workflow republishes game pages.
