Two reasons the projection lands on Texas Rangers: Texas Rangers’s scoring margin profile and Philadelphia Phillies’s recent stretch. Lineup vs. starter L/R splits matter more than season ERAs in a one-game sample.

Rafty’s call: ✗ WRONG
Pre-game pick: Philadelphia Phillies at 59%. Actual: Texas Rangers by 5.

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.
