— Totals losing across tiers - avoid; reduce all confidence due to missing odds/sharp data
Dead even matchup per MC sims (46.3% White Sox cover +0.0) and omega spread 0.0 despite ELO favoring Royals by 3.6pts. Multiple bullpen injuries both sides (Estevez/McArthur out KC, multiple position players out CWS) cap scoring under model total 24.0 (47.2% MC under). Data quality poor at 42% with no market odds/sharp signals; lean Royals spread off ELO edge but negative EV ML at -169.
Reduced sizing. Edge exists but sample or signal strength is moderate.
