playing at home in mlb pitcher walks: -0.04 (n=40,906), confirmed on an era it had never seen. Context for reading a slate — it never adjusts a served probability.
Discovery applies a Benjamini-Hochberg false-discovery correction across every condition tested in this market at once, so a result here is already adjusted for how many conditions were tried. Confirmation re-runs the same test on a chronologically later era the engine had never seen. The eras differ by sport, because each sport has the history it has.
2025–2026: -0.03, held
playing away is not a second piece of evidence — it is this same comparison written down from the other end, with an identical p-value and an exactly negated effect.
A confirmed trend is context for reading a slate. It never adjusts a served probability, and it is not a bet — the probability you see on a pick comes from the model, and this measurement is not an input to it.
