Circuit-breaker log (7 checks)
  • Rule 2 check passed: market line -111 within the night-game juice cap (-180; night -180, day -170, day = first pitch before 17:00 venue-local).
  • Rule 8 check passed: raw model 49.6% vs de-vigged market 51.6%: 2.0-point divergence within the 12-point cap (blended to 50.6% at MODEL_WEIGHT=0.5).
  • Edge gate: model edge vs offered price is -2.0 pts (minimum 2). No allocation; a good side at a bad price is a bad bet.
  • Rule 4 check passed: both starters carry full-season workloads.
  • Rule 6 check passed: away 14-day wOBA 0.309 vs league 0.314 (gap +0.005, threshold 0.035).
  • Rules 3/5 (velocity/spin telemetry): manual review required: Statcast feed not wired.
  • Weather (totals paper track ONLY): 86°F at first pitch: run environment x1.063 + 5% hot-day kicker vs home SP fly-ball (61% air outs). Applied to the paper totals pick; the staked board ignores weather entirely.

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.

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