My working theory is to isolate the extreamly valuable 'good for pitcher = bad for hitter' variables, with the goal to bet the NO first inning run.
This would be in conjunction with already easily available data about the starting lineups and the pitcher's historic successes.
Where I would collaborate is in generating 3D models of ballparks, then overlaying my key factors, some of which include angle of solar insolation (angle at which the sun is hitting the earth), then parse this through the resulting shadowing effect of the infield, which is a particularly strong variant in the early innings of summer west coast early evening start games.
Knowledge of pregame in stadium activities involving the players is another of my factors.
Very interesting comment an announcer made about home fan photo day being a killer to the 'rhythm and rituals' the players normally enjoy.
Enough said about that right now.
Also, I'm having a lot more luck this year than last In aquiring feeds to steaming web cams in ball parks.
This gives me the most accurate 'look' of the weather and cloudiness, rather than the normal weather data. (Temp, humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, etc.)
What's amazing is during the immeadiate pregame warmup, the starting home pitcher and his bullpen catcher know EXACTLY how his stuff is, and how well he will start.
Let's just say aquiring this info has led me down some virgin yet doable avenues.
High level of discretion an absolute requirement.
