Closing Line Value · Public Track Record

A baseball prediction stack built to beat the close.

A stack of MLB prediction models — one for each betting market — that prices every game the night before, then publishes the picks publicly. Every result is settled, graded, and time-stamped the next morning. Nothing live, nothing for sale, no edits after the fact — just the receipts.

Anyone can show wins. Closing line value — getting our bets in at prices better than where the market lands by first pitch — is the metric that survives variance. Beat the closing number consistently and the wins follow over a full season.

How it works

The short version

Read full methodology
Sabermetric ensemble
Three prediction methods vote — a chess-style power rating (ELO), a textbook statistical model, and a tree-based one — over 15 sabermetric features. xFIP and SIERA for pitchers, never raw ERA.
Closing line capture
Ten minutes before every first pitch, an automated job records the closing line at the same sharp books we entered at. CLV on this site is always measured against that actual close — not the opener, not some midline snapshot.
Post-mortem grading
Every settled pick scored as good bet / unlucky / lucky / bad bet — based on whether CLV agreed with us and whether we actually won. We grade the decision, not just the result.
