Pitcher Notes

Quick green flags or red flags based on each starter's season numbers.

⚠ Data Notes
  • Away probable starter not found
  • Home probable starter not found
  • Recent form data missing for many hitters (0/18)
  • Pitcher pitch-family data unavailable (warehouse ETL gap)
  • One starter has a tiny MLB sample; pitcher edge reduced.
  • Game Edge V1 confidence capped by degraded core participant inputs.
Pitcher quality scores use ERA, WHIP, K/9, BB/9, and HR/9 relative to 2026 MLB averages. Lineup scores use recent OPS (last 14 days) weighted by batting order. Confidence reflects available data — not a betting recommendation.
