G&W vs the market for the Kansas City Royals, game by game, is part of Official Plays.See plans ›

Wins vs the close: actual wins minus the wins the closing moneyline implied (the bookmaker margin removed). $100 a game: profit from backing the team every game at that price. The bet-time line is the consensus line on the morning of the bet window (Tuesday for football, game day for most other sports). The close is the consensus line just before the start. Every game uses only lines captured before it began. Regular season only.

About these numbers

The Kansas City Royals on every Lab metric, with each window side by side so you can see whether recent form matches the full season. Under each value is the team's rank among the 30 clubs for that window; the colour is its percentile against the league.

Windows. Season is every game so far. Last 15, Last 30 and Last 7 are each team's most recent games. Home and Road split by where the game was played. vs LHP and vs RHP split the team's plate appearances by the pitcher's hand; for pitching the same buttons split by the batter's side (vs LHB, vs RHB). Custom dates covers any range you choose. Every number is recomputed from the games themselves, and a window never uses a game played after its last date.

Free and members. Season and Last 15 are free for everyone. Last 30, Last 7, home and road, platoon splits and custom dates are part of Analytics, and every higher plan includes them.
