Current venue read

Existing data

This v1 environment card stays inside first-party venue and weather data that is already on the page. Historical park factors and richer environmental normalization remain queued for a later contract expansion.

STEVE edge summary

Pregame edge read

Placeholder

No bounded model read has been posted for this game yet.

Top 3 factors

Top-factor derivation contract is still queued for a follow-up backend slice.
Public edge read stays pregame-first until the richer live contract lands.
Widget copy is now in place so real factors can drop in without layout churn.

Post draft assistant

Deterministic thread shell

Placeholder

This deterministic draft is a placeholder for the future X-thread assistant. It will eventually inspect the full page, pick the most meaningful edge, and shape the hook around that story.

Post-game calibration and human-reviewed analysis will plug into this slot in a later issue.

Salvador Perez singles on a sharp line drive to center fielder Jake Meyers. Garrett Hampson scores.

Matchup hero prep

Front-of-card anchor

Existing data

This first rail keeps the headline matchup, venue, live pulse, and current summary stack close to the hero so the later full Matchup Hero refresh can stay modular instead of growing the main page component again.
