Thresholds That Change the Board
- Lineup scratches: confirm official lineup cards before first pitch
- Weather: check venue-specific forecasts for rain/wind
- Pitching changes: bullpen games or late scratches invalidate matchup scores
Caveats
- ⚠ BLIND LINEUP: Official lineups were not posted at run time. All position players from team rosters are scored. Confirm starting lineups before first pitch — scratches and platoon decisions will change the board.
- Scores are deterministic (no model calls) — based on 2026 MLB Stats API + Statcast data
- Qualitative pass (injury/trade/rest-pattern search) is pending
- Single-game HR probability is inherently low (typically 10-23% even for elite picks)
- This is NOT built from sportsbook odds — it's a pure analytical framework
