From 26b276fbfb2a6ece0cc2033230478c63171f8653 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kev Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2026 20:31:15 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Fix the ESPN team-stats parser + report: opponent rank is still underivable MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Ran the manual regrade with the internal key (thanks). Results are mixed and the honest half matters more. CONFIRMED WORKING — the probability layer is fully alive in production. After POST /api/internal/snapshot/{mlb,wnba}: p_win, ev_pct, model_odds and value are present on 32/32 live grades (mlb 7/7, wnba 25/25), up from 0/8 before. That fix is done. NOT WORKING — the grade-range half did not land, and I am not going to claim it did. The live distribution is unchanged (wnba B17/C8 before AND after; mlb B4/C3), no A, no D, same four confidence values. Diagnosis: matchup_grade is 0/25 on the live board, i.e. opp_rank_stat is still null, so engine1's +/-1.0 opponent factor still never fires and the ceiling is still +3.0 against the +4.5 an A requires. Two distinct causes, both verified against the live ESPN feed: 1. refreshTeamStats CRASHED on every team — "buckets is not iterable", captured 0 / errored 15. ESPN's current shape is results.stats = an OBJECT with categories[], not an array. The old parser did for...of on it. This was invisible until S63 gave the function its first production caller. FIXED here (now captured 15 / errored 0) with a regression test covering the current shape, the legacy array shape, and empty payloads. 2. Even parsed correctly, the endpoint does not carry a defensive-strength metric at all: defensive_rating, opponent_ppg, pace and opponent_fg_pct all normalize to null — it returns only a team's OWN stats. So defensive_rank_normalized cannot be computed and opp_rank_stat remains underivable from this source. A test documents the gap and will fail if that ever changes. Consequence: A STILL DOES NOT EMIT, so the A-RATED marketing hold STAYS. Reviving the opponent factor needs a different derivation (opponent points allowed from scoreboard/schedule, or a different ESPN endpoint) — logged as the concrete next item, not hand-waved as done. Suite 278/3305 green.
