LINEUP EDGE
Published Wednesday, September 16, 2026
8 of 9 Atlanta Braves hitters facing Shota Imanaga have more signals for them than against, 1 more against, averaging +0.8 a hitter — +0.9 on the power signals and +0.3 on the contact signals, so this leans more toward damage than base hits. Shota Imanaga and Wrigley Field add +1 on top, counted once for the whole lineup rather than once per hitter. Batting order is tonight's posted lineup. This counts how many independent signals agree — it is not a probability and has not been graded against results.
