2026 season intelligence

Open standings

The projection stack starts at player-season components, propagates uncertainty into team outcomes, and exposes the same build through leaderboards, awards, standings, and accountability views.

hr_9 offset correction applied, with known overshoot risk in 2021-2025 pitcher calibration windows. If current MLB roster lookup is unavailable, the pipeline falls back to each player's latest historical team.
