About NRFI Stats

Through 11 starts this season, PJ Poulin has held the first inning scoreless 9 times (81.8% NRFI rate). He's averaging 0.18 runs, 0.73 hits, 0.73 Ks, and 0.18 walks per first inning this season.
Opening Line Analytics combines PJ Poulin's historical stats with real-time lineup data and 10,000-iteration Monte Carlo simulation to generate a combined NRFI probability before every start.
