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 | 9.2/10, High risk | 6.2/10, Tired |
| Efficiency | 5.1/10, Average | 6.3/10, Effective |
| Combined risk | 9.2/10, High risk | 5.6/10, Normal |
| Relief innings, last 7 days | 29.7 | 22.7 |
| Back-to-back arms | 8 | 5 |
| 7-day ERA | 3.94 | 2.38 |
| 7-day WHIP | 1.31 | 1.19 |
Fatigue measures workload. Efficiency measures recent run prevention. Combined risk is what the moneyline and totals systems use.
