The 6 measures where these two sit furthest apart among the league's 30 ranked teams, over each team's last 162 regular-season games (Mar 2026 – Sep 2026). Rank 1 = highest in the league, even for points allowed. A rank says where a number sits, not which side it points to.
Where a player's own games in the situations this game has and the books' no-vig chance disagree by more than luck usually explains. Some still are luck. History, not a pick.
It is the postseason. These splits compare a player's regular-season games with playoff prices, and roles, lineups and usage change in October. Far more splits clear the bar than luck alone explains, so read each one as a place to look, not as a finding.
David Fry has gone over 0.5 hits + runs + RBIs in 9 of his last 10 games.
Also cleared the bar (last 5): 5 of 5 on the over side.
