Decision coverage note

Decision coverage was incomplete in the pitcher strikeout lane (12 opportunities expired despite a prior decision opportunity) and the additional pitcher props lane (18 opportunities expired without a decision). This recap is complete for the 3 settled Picks that were actually recorded, but the slate does not meet full-lifecycle acceptance. No missing decision was reconstructed, and these incidents do not count as Picks or change the record above.

Lost: Keider Montero Over 3.5 Ks

Keider Montero finished with 2 strikeouts, leaving the saved over 3.5 on the wrong side of the line for a 1.00-unit loss.

At FanDuel +124, the model gave the over 64.9% against a 44.6% break-even mark, a +20.2-point gap. The saved projection was 4.7 strikeouts across 24.5 batters faced. The pitcher graded 49.5/100 and the opponent strikeout matchup graded 33.0; the confirmed lineup carried a 20.2% strikeout rate.

The actual result finished 2.7 strikeouts below the point projection. The projection supported the ticket, but the actual result crossed to the other side of the sportsbook line. We will compare the same workload, opponent, line, and price profile before changing production weights.

What comes next

What we take forward

Each result can raise a useful question, but no single game rewrites the model. Any adjustment has to repeat across comparable frozen reads and survive a prospective test first.
