How the analysis held up
Milwaukee Brewers won. Leo's model favored the other side.
Leo's two internal reads disagreed pregame by 10.2 points — the team-strength model favored Baltimore Orioles, the run-projection model favored Milwaukee Brewers. The run-projection model had the winner here.
Robert Gasser (No clear pitching-plan edge), the starter Leo's pitcher score favored, actually outpitched Trevor Rogers: 7.0 IP, 0 ER (0.00 ERA) against 8.0 IP, 1 ER (1.13 ERA). The edge held up. Both starters were sharp; the edge is a narrow one between two good outings.
The Milwaukee Brewers bullpen was flagged as elevated risk pregame (High risk). In relief it actually allowed 0 earned runs over 2.0 innings (0.00 ERA) — the risk read did not show up on the scoreboard tonight.
The Baltimore Orioles bullpen was flagged as elevated risk pregame (Tired). In relief it actually allowed 0 earned runs over 1.0 innings (0.00 ERA) — the risk read did not show up on the scoreboard tonight.
Milwaukee Brewers scored 1, 4.4 fewer than the 5.4 pregame projection.
Baltimore Orioles scored 0, 5.3 fewer than the 5.3 pregame projection.
Likely driver: the opposing starter (0.00 ERA) was sharp when the read expected an edge the other way, and Baltimore Orioles's offense scored 5.3 fewer runs than projected.

Bullpen matchup
Full Bullpen Fatigue Index →Risk is what the model actually uses: fatigue blended with how well the pen has pitched. High fatigue with high efficiency is a tired pen that is still getting outs.
| Metric | Brewers | Orioles |
|---|---|---|
| Fatigue | 10.0/10, High risk | 8.1/10, Tired |
| Efficiency | 4.5/10, Average | 6.0/10, Effective |
| Combined risk | 10.0/10, High risk | 7.6/10, Tired |
| Relief innings, last 7 days | 33.0 | 26.7 |
| Back-to-back arms | 8 | 6 |
| 7-day ERA | 4.64 | 2.70 |
| 7-day WHIP | 1.45 | 1.24 |
Fatigue measures workload. Efficiency measures recent run prevention. Combined risk is what the moneyline and totals systems use.
Run total projection
Full Totals Projections →The model projects 3.2 runs above the market total. A research lean still requires a setup rating of at least 7.0/10. Team totals remain research-only until their graded sample is established.
