Table Insights

Extracted from rolling tables above.

Strongest

MIL Fade

FADE: The Milwaukee bullpen has been giving up a ton of runs lately, ranking 27th in the league over the past week. They have also been blowing saves at a high rate, converting just over half their chances. Avoid backing Milwaukee when the game comes down to their relievers.

SEA Fade

FADE: The Seattle bullpen has been a mess this past week, ranking 24th in the league and allowing nearly 6.5 runs per nine innings. They were much better a month ago, so this is a sharp recent drop-off worth paying attention to. Stay away from Seattle in close games where the bullpen will be heavily involved.

ATL Fade

FADE: Atlanta's bullpen has been trending in the wrong direction over the past two weeks despite looking solid a month ago. They have been giving up nearly 5 runs per nine innings this past week, which is a warning sign. Even though they have been perfect in save chances, the overall relief work has been shaky, so be cautious backing the Braves in games where the pen is needed.

BOS Value

VALUE: The Boston bullpen has been one of the better units in baseball this past week, ranking 6th and posting a WHIP under 0.9. They have been getting outs cleanly and keeping runners off base consistently. Back Boston in close games where their relievers are likely to see action.

MIL Value

VALUE: Milwaukee's starters have been pitching really well lately, allowing under 2 runs per nine innings this past week and ranking 6th in the league. They have also been among the best rotations over the past two weeks. Back the Brewers when one of their starters is on the mound this week.

ATH Value

VALUE: The Athletics rotation has been gaining momentum recently even though they are not putting up flashy numbers yet. Their starters have been improving over the past two weeks and the team is trending in a positive direction. Keep an eye on Oakland as a potential underdog value when their better starters take the mound.

ATL Value

VALUE: Atlanta's starting pitchers have been excellent this week, ranking 5th in the league and giving up just over 2 runs per nine innings. They have also been consistently solid over the past month, which makes this more than just a hot streak. Back the Braves when their starters are going, especially given the strong recent form.

CIN Value

VALUE: Cincinnati's rotation has been holding its own despite facing a tough schedule lately. They are trending upward with solid momentum and their starters are keeping games competitive. Back the Reds as a potential underdog value when their starters take the hill this week.

ATH Fade

FADE: The Athletics offense has been one of the weaker units in the league, scoring just 3.57 runs per game and ranking 26th in overall offensive performance this week. The lineup has been struggling to produce, and momentum is heading in the wrong direction. Avoid counting on Oakland to score enough to win, especially against quality pitching.

CWS Value

VALUE: The Chicago White Sox offense has been surprisingly productive lately, scoring over 5 runs per game and showing a strong quality-of-contact score of 127. Their momentum is the highest among this group, suggesting the bats are heating up right now. Back the White Sox offense this week while they are swinging well.
