  • Rule 8 check passed: raw model 57.9% vs de-vigged market 57.2%: 0.7-point divergence within the 12-point cap (blended to 57.6% at MODEL_WEIGHT=0.5).
  • Edge gate: model edge vs offered price is -0.4 pts (minimum 2). No allocation; a good side at a bad price is a bad bet.
  • Rule 4 flag: Grayson Rodriguez, Ryan Gusto under 60 IP this deep in the season (limited workload / possible IL return). Volume freeze: confidence downgraded one tier.

The close is the last pre-first-pitch capture. Movement toward a side after we post is the fastest honest read on pick quality — see the CLV column on the ledger.

❌ Watch pick (market-proving, paper, 0u staked): Under 8.5 (-110, BetMGM) — LOSS (-1.00u paper).

No stake rode on this game. The lean and its failed gates above are the whole position: passing is a position too.
