Rafters Edge Simulation
A transparent, site-owned matchup read built from recent scoreboard history, scoring margin, recent form, and home-venue adjustment. For entertainment and analysis only.
Texas Rangers 3.8 · St. Louis Cardinals 4.7
Pick goes to St. Louis Cardinals on the back of St. Louis Cardinals’s margin work and St. Louis Cardinals’s last-ten momentum. Lineup vs. starter L/R splits matter more than season ERAs in a one-game sample.
Three things to watch
- Form gap. St. Louis Cardinals is 55% over their recent sample; Texas Rangers is 40%. Streaky teams tend to carry one more game than the math allows for.
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.
