The model leans Detroit Tigers because Detroit Tigers owns the cleaner scoring-margin profile and Boston Red Sox has the recent-form edge. Lineup vs. starter L/R splits matter more than season ERAs in a one-game sample.

Rafty’s call: ✗ WRONG
Pre-game pick: Boston Red Sox at 58%. Actual: Detroit Tigers by 3.

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.
