⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment heavily favors the Padres ML with matching sharp money distribution, indicating strong market consensus without need to fade. The simulation highlights a low-scoring affair relative to the inflated 15.5 total, driven by recent team averages around 11-12 runs combined and depleted pitching staffs from injuries. Follow the Padres straight but hammer the under for maximum EV.

🔮 Recommended Play
Follow the public with San Diego Padres — market alignment and sim edge confirm highest probability.
