We went 336-394 on August 19, 2026, across 730 graded player props. That’s a losing day, plainly: more losses than wins. MLB drove the volume and the result, and WNBA finished under .500 as well. Below is the full breakdown of what LineCrush’s models got right and where we fell short, with every pick graded publicly.

Overall record: 336-394 (730 props)

By the Numbers

  • MLB: 310-359
  • WNBA: 26-35

Biggest Wins

LineCrush’s models did land several clean reads that stood out:

  • Michael King (MLB) — Pitcher Outs Over 17.50: WIN, actual 20.0
    Our read was that King would work deep enough to clear 18 outs. He got to 20, surpassing the line with room to spare.

  • Coby Mayo (MLB) — Batter Total Bases Under: WIN, actual 0.0
    We projected limited damage, and Mayo was held to zero total bases, a wire-to-wire Under.

  • Miguel Rojas (MLB) — Batter Total Bases Under: WIN, actual 0.0
    Another Under that never sweated. Rojas finished without a base, validating the low-output expectation.

  • Paul Skenes (MLB) — Pitcher Strikeouts Under 6.50: WIN, actual 5.0
    Despite Skenes’ strikeout ceiling, our analysis leaned Under 6.5. He finished at 5, staying safely below the number.

  • Veronica Burton (WNBA) — Rebounds Over 3.50: WIN, actual 4.0
    Burton cleared the 3.5 with exactly four boards, a modest but accurate Over read from our WNBA projections.

Where We Missed

We also had several calls that were just wrong. No hedging—these missed, and they count:

  • Luis Torrens (MLB) — Batter Total Bases Over: LOSS, actual 0.0
    We needed any total bases; he recorded none. This Over never got started.

  • Aaron Nola (MLB) — Pitcher Strikeouts Under 5.50: LOSS, actual 8.0
    A clear miss. Nola’s strikeout form beat our Under by a wide margin, finishing three Ks over the line.

  • Freddie Freeman (MLB) — Batter Singles Over 0.50: LOSS, actual 0.0
    We projected at least one single from Freeman; he didn’t register one. Straightforward loss.

  • Alex Bregman (MLB) — Batter Total Bases Over 1.50: LOSS, actual 0.0
    Needed two or more total bases; got zero. This Over never threatened.

  • Brandon Pfaadt (MLB) — Pitcher Strikeouts Under 3.50: LOSS, actual 8.0
    This was our biggest miss of the day among the notables. Pfaadt doubled the Under threshold, ending at eight strikeouts.

Closing

It was a tough slate: 336-394 overall, with MLB at 310-359 and WNBA at 26-35. Some edges showed up—Michael King’s outs, Coby Mayo and Miguel Rojas Unders, Paul Skenes Under 6.5 Ks, and Veronica Burton Over rebounds—but the losses listed above were decisive and are part of our record. Every pick is graded publicly on LineCrush, win or lose, so you can audit our results any time.
