Near pick'em: model 51.4% MIN vs market 48.4%, no real comparison either way. ATL's 74-52 record and .789 OPS outrank MIN's 62-65 and .673, so I take the small side against the model. Smith-Shawver's listed 4.3 IP across 10 starts is internally inconsistent, so I keep this to a lean. Both clubs under 4.0 RPG argues under 8.5 even in a 1.06 park.
