Game Analysis

Limited data forces low confidence across the board. The only quantifiable edge is on the Guardians spread 0.0, where Monte Carlo shows a 49.4% win rate plus 13.2% push probability, yielding +7.5% EV after accounting for pushes. Whale money sides with the White Sox, but that signal is contradicted by the model's spread edge. Moneyline and total both show negative EV after vig. Player props on DeLauter and Montgomery offer modest edges but rely on unvalidated roster data.
