Cleveland Guardians is the lean because of Cleveland Guardians on the margin numbers and Cleveland Guardians on the form numbers. Park factor, weather, and lineup handedness vs. the starter own the run-total swing here.

Three things to watch

  • Form gap. Cleveland Guardians is 70% over their recent sample; Boston Red Sox is 45%. Streaky teams tend to carry one more game than the math allows for.
  • Net efficiency. Cleveland Guardians projects 54% from points-for vs points-allowed; Boston Red Sox sits at 47%.

Model: rafty-v2.0. Inputs: expected win rate from points-for vs. points-allowed, schedule-adjusted margin, recent form, rest, home venue, league volatility, and MLB starter/bullpen context when available. Refreshes whenever game pages republish.
