Why we only surface these markets

We post a play only where a full-season backtest shows a durable, repeatable edge — today that's strikeout props (big projection-vs-line gaps) and team-total leans (our strongest run-total disagreements). Everything else we publish as graded transparency, not plays: our number set beside the market and scored in the open, but with no lean attached.

Markets like the moneyline, game totals, home runs, hits, RBI, runs, and total bases are priced sharply and managed tightly by the books. Across a full season of backtesting, even a well-tuned model can't find a repeatable edge in them — beating these markets consistently is strikingly hard, so we won't manufacture a play we can't stand behind. If one of them ever earns a sustained edge, it'll surface here automatically.

Δ shows how far our projection diverges from the book's line — the bigger the disagreement, the stronger the historical edge. Hit rates and ROI are season-to-date, graded against the posted line. Not betting advice.
