1st-inning run prediction based on today's real lineups and starters
YRFI / NRFI
Model leans
NRFI 61.8%
38.2% YRFI · 61.8% NRFI
Why
Blue Jays: YRFI in 4 straight - NRFI in 1 of last 5
Royals: NRFI in 3 straight - NRFI in 3 of last 5
Spencer Arrighetti: hasn't allowed a 1st-inning run in 5 straight starts
A pick only becomes a play once the model is confident enough (65%+ for YRFI, 35%- for NRFI). No sportsbook line exists for this market yet, so this reflects the model's own confidence rather than an edge against posted odds.
