Confirm participant, event, period, and grading basis before replacing sample values.

What this page can answer

For Run Line Cover Probability, projected margin subtracts Opponent rating from Team rating and then adds Venue adjustment. Market spread and Margin standard deviation convert that margin into a cover estimate.

Review bullpen adjustment with the inputs provided by Bullpen Adjustment, then compare the two outputs only if their event scopes match.

From entries to the answer

projected margin = team rating − opponent rating + venue adjustment

Input scope and units

For projected margin, Team rating represents power rating relative to an average team.
When using the result, use a current source for Opponent rating. Here it means opponent power rating on the same scale.
Label Venue adjustment as observed, quoted, or projected. Its role is positive values favor the selected team.
Label Market spread as observed, quoted, or projected. Its role is selected team spread. Negative means favored.
Margin standard deviation records estimated game-to-game variation.

Stress-testing the baseline

Keep the sportsbook spread fixed while changing the least certain rating or venue input.
Test margin variation separately from central rating difference.
Near the line, push rules and discrete scoring matter more than another decimal.

Where input quality can fail

At this stage, starting pitcher, bullpen workload, park, weather, batting order, and handedness should be current for the scheduled game.

Unmodeled information

Power ratings should share one scale and reference point.
As a practical check, check listed-pitcher conditions, innings covered, postponement treatment, official scoring, and extra innings.
For this comparison, the calculation cannot verify whether every source was collected at a compatible time.
