Table Insights
Extracted from rolling tables above.
Strongest
ATH
Fade
FADE: The Athletics bullpen has been one of the worst in baseball this week, allowing over 10 runs per nine innings. They've been struggling to get hitters out and putting runners on base constantly. Stay away from Oakland when the game gets to their relievers.
CHC
Fade
FADE: Chicago's bullpen looked sharp recently but a lot of that came against weak competition, and the underlying numbers suggest they aren't as good as the results show. Their performance has slipped over the last two weeks compared to a month ago. Don't trust the Cubs pen to hold leads right now.
KC
Value
VALUE: Kansas City's bullpen has been excellent lately, posting a 2.49 ERA over the last week and keeping baserunners to a minimum. They've been consistently good over the past two weeks as well. Back the Royals when the game gets to their relievers.
SF
Fade
FADE: San Francisco's bullpen was dominant a month ago but has fallen off a cliff recently, and the team overall has been losing ground fast. The relievers are walking too many hitters and the momentum is pointing in the wrong direction. Fade the Giants bullpen until they show signs of turning it around.
MIA
Fade
FADE: Miami starters have been getting lit up this week, giving up runs at a really high rate over the last seven days. Their numbers over the past month are mediocre at best, and things have gotten worse recently. Avoid backing Miami's starters right now.
CHC
Fade
FADE: The Cubs starters look great on the surface with a low ERA this week, but they've been facing easy competition and the results don't tell the whole story. Over the last month their starters have been closer to average, and the team has been losing momentum. Don't buy into Chicago's starting pitching numbers just yet.
NYY
Fade
FADE: New York's starters have been struggling badly this week, giving up runs in bunches and putting a lot of runners on base. The team has been sliding hard lately despite a softer schedule. Avoid the Yankees starters until they get back on track.
ARI
Value
VALUE: Arizona's starters have been solid this week, holding opponents to just 3.25 runs per nine with a clean WHIP around 1.17. This is a noticeable bounce-back after a rough stretch over the last month. Back the Diamondbacks starters while this recent form holds.
ARI
Fade
FADE: Arizona's offense has been one of the worst in baseball lately, scoring fewer than 3 runs a game over the past week and ranking near the bottom of the league. Their hitters simply aren't doing damage right now. Fade Arizona in games where they'll need to score to win.
CLE
Value
VALUE: Cleveland's offense has been clicking this week, averaging over 5 runs a game and ranking among the top offenses in baseball over the last seven days. The team is trending in the right direction with real momentum behind them. Back the Guardians to keep putting up runs this week.
