Graded — this page is the complete record.
The lean (0 units — logged, not staked)
Athletics ML (-105, LowVig.ag) · confidence 50.6% of 10,000 sims · edge -0.7 pts · 0u
Yusei Kikuchi (5.02 ERA, 1.55 WHIP) vs Brady Basso (4.50 ERA, 1.48 WHIP).
Projected 4.5–4.6; sim total 9.1 against a 9.5 line; park factor 1.02.
Market at board time: moneyline -108 / -109 (consensus at board time) · total 9.5.
Circuit-breaker log (7 checks)
- Rule 2 check passed: market line -105 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 51.0% vs de-vigged market 50.1%: 0.9-point divergence within the 12-point cap (blended to 50.6% at MODEL_WEIGHT=0.5).
- Edge gate: model edge vs offered price is -0.6 pts (minimum 2). No allocation; a good side at a bad price is a bad bet.
- Rule 4 flag: Yusei Kikuchi, Brady Basso 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 0.302 vs league 0.322 (gap +0.020, threshold 0.035).
- Rules 3/5 (velocity/spin telemetry): manual review required: Statcast feed not wired.
- Weather (totals paper track ONLY): 81°F at first pitch: run environment x1.045. Applied to the paper totals pick; the staked board ignores weather entirely.
👁 Watch (market-proving, 0u): Under 9.5 (-115, Bovada) · model 56.5% · edge +3.0 pts · divergence +4.8 pts
Open vs close
| Market | Board time | Close |
|---|---|---|
| Moneyline (away / home) | -108 / -109 | -130 / +110 |
| Total | 9.5 | 9.5 (o-110 / u-110) |
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 9.5 (-115, Bovada) — 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.
