TOTAL

Line: 9.5
calibrated total posterior 65.2% over vs market 50% — massive +15.2pp edge. This is the strongest single signal in the card. Omega model's absurd 22.5 total is structurally wrong for MLB, but the calibrated correctly incorporates the market prior and still lands on over.
Game Analysis
Monte Carlo sims project Royals win 58.7% and under 65.7% at total 22.5, making the under the strongest signal despite degraded data quality. Whale money on home ($195k) and prediction market (55.5% home) create divergence, but MC's high edge confidence on the under is robust. With no market odds, model-implied lines carry extra uncertainty — the under is the only pick with clear positive EV.

PROP ALERT
Bobby Witt Jr.
Kansas City Royals
Over 1.5 hits
58%
Witt Jr. is the Royals' best hitter (.288 avg). Without Pasquantino and Garcia in the lineup, lineup protection thins but Witt's usage rate should rise. Against a Baltimore rotation missing Bassitt, the bullpen is weaker. Modest edge; unvalidated opponent data caps confidence.
