Graded — this page is the complete record.

The lean (0 units — logged, not staked)

Atlanta Braves -1.5 run line · confidence 41.3% of 10,000 sims · edge -5.1 pts · 0u

Anthony Molina (2.89 ERA, 0.96 WHIP) vs Bryce Elder (3.95 ERA, 1.24 WHIP).

Projected 4.1–4.6; sim total 8.7 against a 9 line; park factor 1.00.

Market at board time: moneyline +169 / -193 (consensus at board time) · total 9.

Circuit-breaker log (7 checks)
  • Rule 2 fired: market line -182 exceeds the night-game juice cap (-180): pivoted off the moneyline to ATL -1.5 (covers 41.3% of sims).
  • Rule 8 check passed: raw model 54.9% vs de-vigged market 63.9%: 9.0-point divergence within the 12-point cap (blended to 41.3% at MODEL_WEIGHT=0.5).
  • Edge gate: model edge vs offered price is -5.1 pts (minimum 2). No allocation; a good side at a bad price is a bad bet.
  • Rule 4 flag: Anthony Molina under 60 IP this deep in the season (limited workload / possible IL return). Volume freeze: confidence downgraded one tier.
  • Rule 6 check passed: away 14-day wOBA 0.306 vs league 0.314 (gap +0.008, threshold 0.035).
  • Rules 3/5 (velocity/spin telemetry): manual review required: Statcast feed not wired.
  • Weather (totals paper track ONLY): 94°F at first pitch: run environment x1.094. Applied to the paper totals pick; the staked board ignores weather entirely.

👁 Watch (market-proving, 0u): Under 9 (-105, BetUS) · model 56.1% · edge +4.9 pts · divergence +6.1 pts

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 9 (-105, BetUS) — 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.
