Los Angeles Dodgers is the model’s call — Los Angeles Dodgers on the margin numbers, St. Louis Cardinals on the form numbers. Bullpen rest day is the sneakiest input — a long man on the mound erases a 3-run lead in two innings.

Three things to watch

  • Form gap. St. Louis Cardinals is 55% over their recent sample; Los Angeles Dodgers is 40%. Streaky teams tend to carry one more game than the math allows for.
  • Net efficiency. Los Angeles Dodgers projects 68% from points-for vs points-allowed; St. Louis Cardinals sits at 51%.

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.
