2 signals settled from yesterday's card.

What Happened Yesterday

Monday's eleven-game slate produced a clean sweep for the LIVE portfolio⁷. Run Lines³ went 2-0, collecting 3.27 units across two contests. The Mets covered the dog number at Miami, returning 1.63 units. Minnesota did the same in Detroit, adding 1.64 units. Closing line value¹ was stark — median CLV of +73.25%, though with just two signals that number is sensitive to book timing. Over the past seven days, the run-line model has posted median CLV of +0.48% across nineteen signals, which provides context for how the framework operates in normal volume.

Hits Props OVER⁴ graded zero signals yesterday — the gate held: no card cleared the price bar. The model looks for structural mispricings, and when the market tightens, the model sits out.

Shadow research exists to test frameworks before they touch real money. Yesterday the SHADOW book went 14-7 across three lanes. Hits Props UNDER ran 12-3, producing 2.44 units. Median CLV came in at -25.38%. Hits Props OVER (research) went 2-2, dropping 1.19 units. F5 Innings⁵ went 0-2, absorbing two units of loss with median CLV of -3.25 runs. That lane is in validation — the framework tests whether first-five-inning totals behave differently than full-game markets.

How the Projection Engine Did

The engine yesterday covered 990 player projections across eleven games — 198 hitters in total. Mean absolute error⁸ and accuracy metrics track how projections compare to actual performance. The largest average delta² yesterday landed in total bases at -0.42 and hits at -0.25, meaning the model ran slightly hot relative to Tuesday's outcomes. Parlay builders and DFS constructors should account for a potential downward bias when building lineups off projection floors — the engine flags structural patterns, not predictive certainty.

Today's Card

Tuesday's slate expands to fifteen games. Run Lines generated three signals. Hits Props OVER generated zero. The single named candidate lives in Philadelphia, where Houston takes the dog number at +1.5 with best price at LowVig.ag (-164). The rest — including all SHADOW research — lives on the Signal Board. The projection engine covered 1,350 player forecasts across the full slate, providing research for parlay builders, DFS players, and anyone who wants to analyze where the model identifies gaps.

What This Means

Portfolio trend versus seven days prior: 1,021 signals have returned 33.67 units at 3.3% ROI as of Monday, down from 37.77 units at 4.8% ROI a week ago. The current streak sits at three consecutive days of positive net. CLV is a process metric — it measures entry price versus closing price, not profit and loss. A model can post negative CLV and still return units if the closing line is inefficient, or post positive CLV and lose if the line was sharp. Median CLV is the robust headline; mean is outlier-sensitive.

Definitions

  • CLV¹ (Closing Line Value): entry price vs. closing price — a process metric, not P&L
  • delta²: projection miss (actual minus forecast)
  • run line³: spread bet (usually ±1.5 runs)
  • hits props⁴: over/under on batter hits
  • F5⁵: first-five-innings market
  • ROI/units⁶: return on investment / standard bet sizing
  • LIVE/SHADOW/total⁷: official book / research validation / combined activity
  • mean absolute error⁸: average miss size, ignoring direction

Definitions

  • ¹ CLV (Closing Line Value) — whether the price we got beat the closing price. A measure of process quality, not profit or loss.
  • ² Delta — the gap between our projection and the market's line for a player prop; the side where we'd have value.
  • ³ Run Line — baseball's spread bet, typically ±1.5 runs.
  • Hits Props OVER/UNDER — a bet on whether a player records more or fewer hits than the posted line.
  • F5 Innings — first-five-innings result, isolating the starting pitchers.
  • ROI / units (u) — return per unit staked; +1.00u = one unit of profit.
  • LIVE / SHADOW / total portfolio — LIVE is the official real-money book; SHADOW is research tracked publicly but excluded from the official record; total = live + shadow combined.
  • Mean absolute error (MAE) — the average size of our miss, ignoring direction; lower is better.
