KBO predictions for May 13, 2026: all Polymarket games ranked by edge

KBO predictions for May 13, 2026: all Polymarket games ranked by edge

Published 8h agoUpdated 4h ago

May 13, 2026 KBO board has 5 same-day Polymarket winner markets after official schedule verification. We rank every game by model-versus-market gap, show the market price, Naly estimate, expected-run read, confidence, and linked news checks. The strongest edge is NC Dinos at 59% against the market baseline.

Key Takeaways
  • The article uses the same mispricing workflow as the finance roundups: market prior, Naly fair value, explicit edge, and a negative-case test for each event.
  • NC Dinos is the strongest same-day KBO disagreement at 59% Naly probability and +10 pp versus Polymarket.
  • Every matchup section includes its own Polymarket link, official KBO data references, and related news checks.
  • Low-confidence edges stay in the article because they are useful for calibration, but they should not be read as strong calls.

Data and source notes

  • Official KBO team hitting table was used for runs per game and offensive context.
  • Official KBO team pitching table was used for ERA, WHIP, runs allowed, and strikeout/walk context.
  • Official KBO schedule data was used to reject stale Polymarket markets that are still marked active after a game has completed.
  • Polymarket prices were used as the market-implied baseline and section-level market link for each matchup.
  • News snippets were used as a small adjustment only when they clearly referred to injuries, returns, starters, or availability.

Conclusion

The highest-information checks before first pitch are lineup confirmation, starting-pitcher confirmation, bullpen availability, and whether any injury item changes the expected-run baseline. The article should be judged after settlement by whether the hypothesis identified the right side of the market disagreement, not by whether every low-confidence pick won.

Methodology

We treat Polymarket as the market-implied prior, then update with official KBO schedule, team hitting, team pitching, expected runs, home field, and public news. Each event keeps the same finance-article structure: explicit market disagreement, causal chain, key factors, Bayesian adjustment, alternative explanation, and a wrong-case test. The result is stored for post-game calibration.
