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 | Rockies | Yankees |
|---|---|---|
| Fatigue | 5.7/10, Normal | 4.4/10, Normal |
| Efficiency | 2.5/10, Struggling | 7.0/10, Effective |
| Combined risk | 7.0/10, Tired | 3.4/10, Fresh |
| Relief innings, last 7 days | 17.7 | 13.7 |
| Back-to-back arms | 5 | 4 |
| 7-day ERA | 7.64 | 1.98 |
| 7-day WHIP | 1.58 | 0.88 |
Fatigue measures workload. Efficiency measures recent run prevention. Combined risk is what the moneyline and totals systems use.
