Table Insights
Extracted from rolling tables above.
Strongest
CIN Fade
FADE: The Cincinnati bullpen has been shaky this week after being one of the best in baseball over the past month. Their runs-allowed number this week looks much worse than their longer stretch of good work, and the momentum is trending down. Avoid leaning on the Reds bullpen in close games right now.
KC Value
VALUE: The Kansas City bullpen has been lights-out this week, giving up almost no runs with a 1.50 ERA over the last seven days. They were struggling before that, so this is a recent hot stretch worth riding while it lasts. Back the Royals bullpen this week.
TEX Fade
FADE: The Texas bullpen looks better than it probably is right now — their ERA this week is solid but the team's momentum has been slipping. Things may not stay this clean for long. Be cautious about trusting the Rangers bullpen to hold leads this week.
CLE Value
VALUE: Cleveland's bullpen has been excellent this week, barely giving up any runs and keeping baserunners off the bases. The momentum is trending up and the relievers look sharp. Back the Guardians when their bullpen is in play this week.
PIT Fade
FADE: Pittsburgh starters have been giving up a lot of runs this week, and the team's momentum is heading in the wrong direction. Even though they pitched well over the past month, the recent slide is hard to ignore. Avoid backing PIT starters right now.
SF Value
VALUE: San Francisco starters have been giving up more runs than they probably should — the ball in play just hasn't been going their way lately. Their underlying numbers suggest they are pitching better than the scoreboard shows. Back SF starters this week as things should even out.
KC Value
VALUE: Kansas City starters have been getting hit hard recently, but their actual pitching quality looks better than the runs they've allowed suggest. The rotation is trending upward with positive momentum. Back Royals starters this week as the results should start catching up to how well they're throwing.
NYY Fade
FADE: New York's starters have put up great numbers recently, but they've been facing easier competition than most teams. The momentum is slipping a little, and tougher matchups could expose that. Temper expectations with Yankees starters until we see them tested against better lineups.
PHI Value
VALUE: Philadelphia's offense has been grinding against a tough schedule and is still scoring nearly 5 runs a game. Their momentum is building even while facing harder opponents. Back the Phillies offense — if they can produce like this against tough pitching, they should do even more damage against average competition.
PIT Fade
FADE: Pittsburgh's lineup is near the bottom of the league in run production and the offense has been losing steam lately. They are scoring just over 4 runs a game and not hitting well overall. Avoid counting on the Pirates bats to carry them right now.
