Venue EdgeWrigley FieldHome adjustment: +1.0 rating pts

Pick goes to Chicago Cubs on the back of Chicago Cubs’s margin work and Chicago Cubs’s last-ten momentum. Bullpen rest day is the sneakiest input — a long man on the mound erases a 3-run lead in two innings.

Rafty’s call: ✓ RIGHT
Pre-game pick: Chicago Cubs at 74%. Actual: Chicago Cubs 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.
