Model Status and Line Stability

Line movement indicators show complete stability in consensus totals and spreads. Both the -1.5 spread and the 7.5 total open and current figures are identical. Because our internal MLB projection model is currently in a public retraining cycle, no automated model pick or probability output is provided for this game. Evaluation relies strictly on market pricing structures and observed player data.
