The OOTP Predictions for April 10 2019 are ready and shown below. The results for the OOTP Predictions for April 9 2019 did better than the previous results. But, it wasn't stellar.
In true from, the Mets should have had an easy win but lost by a wide margin. Is the beginning of their usual descent into the mid season blues? I still hold out hope (it's my team, after all). But, for Mets fans, it's the same as it ever was.
The Mets are predicted to win today, but the strength indicator is much smaller. Yesterday, it was close to 2. Today, it's at 1.15. As a reminder, the strength indicator sums the scores of all the games (5000) and divides it by the runs allowed (sum of 5000 games).

I keep talking about the Seattle surprises. Yesterday was not different. The simulation module finally reversed the trend and is picking the team to win for today. As I have mentioned in the past, I didn't write the software, so I have no idea how the AI engine works. I only make guesses. I would have thought the simulator would have switched when Seattle won 8 out of 9 games, or something like that. It waited until it hit 12 out of 13.
Boston, what can I say about Boston? What can anyone say about Boston? They are off today but the simulator keeps having faith. They have a win percentage of 25%. Will the simulator finally flip when that percentage is close to 0? Who knows?
