What could break the pick

New York Mets come in hot on a 1-game win streak — recent form the season-long rating hasn't fully priced in. Even strong favorites lose outright about once in three tries at this probability. Starting pitchers, lineup cards, and bullpen usage move real outcomes in ways a rating system can’t see.
