Performance

SP Strikeouts carries the strongest edge (+7.9 pts over base). Over is currently the stronger side (+15.7 pts vs +8.1 pts for Under).

What's working

Every market's measured edge against how much of it we actually serve, ranked by lift. The tables further down read served predictions only, so a market that is good but never clears the floor is invisible there — and looks the same as one that does not work.

“Starved” means the market beats its base rate by 5+ points across everything it predicted, yet under a tenth of those ever clear the floor — the scale cannot reach, so the edge is never offered.

Does a higher score perform better?

Higher score bands have generally produced higher observed hit rates. The 75–79, 85–89, 90–94 bands remain small.

Current scoring engine only — 258 predictions from superseded versions excluded. Pooling engines once made the top band look anti-predictive when it was not; per-version records are in the model table below.
