Published · Auto-generated from the model
Fresh run for Monday, September 21, 2026 — the computer flagged the games where its number is furthest from the market.
1. Toronto Blue Jays at Baltimore Orioles — BAL +1.5 Strong
Comparing our projected margin to the posted line of 1.5 for the home team surfaces a gap the model wants to bet. The recommendation is BAL +1.5, an edge of about 2.1 runs in our favor. For the over/under, our pace-adjusted projection lands near 8.7 runs against the posted 7.5. That points to the Over 7.5, with about 1.2 runs of over edge.

2. Minnesota Twins at San Francisco Giants — SF +1.5 Strong
The market opened at 1.5 on the home side, but our projected margin is far enough from that number to flag value. The recommendation is SF +1.5, an edge of about 1.5 runs in our favor. Totals-wise, the simulation expects roughly 7.8 runs while the book has hung 8.5. That points to the Under 8.5, with about 0.7 runs of under edge.

3. Washington Nationals at Detroit Tigers — WSH +1.5 Strong
The market opened at -1.5 on the home side, but our projected margin is far enough from that number to flag value. The recommendation is WSH +1.5, an edge of about 0.9 runs in our favor. On the total, the model projects around 8.2 combined runs versus a market number of 8.5. That's too tight to bet with confidence — the total is best left alone here.
