first pitch 9:10 PM CDT

Cincinnati Reds @ Los Angeles Dodgers

Wed 9/9 · 9:10 PM CDT · forecast weather in the grade · ump: confirmed
FIRST 5 INNINGS
no lean
model 47% over · market 47%
TOTAL
no lean
model 52% under · market 51%
the letter is how far we sit from the market, not how sure we are
THE PICTURE — what's driving the 2-point gapsized against each other · measured against the line — a stat the market already prices can point opposite its usual read
Park & environment leans over25%
Offense profile leans over21%
The away team allowing 6 runs a game, last 30 — above league average. Priced in, and it went too faragainst the over20%
The home starter strikes out 29.1% of batters, adjusted — a higher strikeout rate than averageagainst the over18%
Umpire's strike zone has run wider than the league this past year — more called strikesagainst the over16%
Market: First-5-innings Over 4.5 at +107 (pinnacle, quoted 8:00 PM CDT) · the full picture prices it +113 · model expects ~4.7 runs · divergence 2 points — band none.
SITUATIONAL CONDITIONSdetected for this game · not a grade input — anything that carries weight appears in THE PICTURE
Time-zone spot (playing 2+ zones from home)Heavily used bullpenHigh-scoring umpire
Honest row: grades cap at the band — extreme disagreement is as often our error as the market's. Moneyline gets no grade because our model hasn't beaten that market and says so. Graded against the line at grade time; the model was validated against closing lines. Weather from forecast; regrade if conditions flip. F5 grades ride a shorter history (2023-2025).
