Game Analysis
The Athletics @ White Sox game is a data-quality nightmare (68% degraded), but the Bayesian fusion still identifies a +6.3pp edge on Athletics +2.2. Sharp money and whales are heavily on the White Sox, creating a classic contrarian spot. The OMEGA independent line sees a pick'em, suggesting the market overadjusted. The total is unplayable due to a broken Poisson model (OMEGA projects 22.5 runs). The only actionable pick is the Athletics spread as a low-conviction lean.
