19 roster moves in the last 3 days, 0 involving rosterable players.
19 roster moves in the last 3 days, 17 recalled, 2 selected. 9 of them involve a player the engine ranks at all, and 0 clear the value of the last rostered player in a 12-team league. That gap is the point of this piece: a transaction wire is not a fantasy story until someone checks which names on it you could actually use.
Every move in this window involves a player below roster-relevant value. That is the usual outcome and worth saying plainly rather than dressing up a quiet week as news.
On the board, but below the line where a 12-team league rosters anyone. These are the ones to revisit if playing time opens up.

10 further moves involved players the engine does not rank. They are counted here and deliberately not listed, absence from the board is itself a projection, not an oversight.
Value is the replacement-adjusted number the boards sort on. Roughly 134 is the 300th-ranked player, so anything below it is a free agent in a standard league however loud the transaction was.
A trade matters to fantasy only insofar as it changes playing time or ballpark. The engine already prices both, which is why moves are ranked by valuation rather than by how prominent the name is.
This covers trades, recalls and contract selections, which is everything the transaction feed carries. Demotions, designations for assignment and suspensions are not in the source data and are not guessed at here.

Final Value = Raw Projection × MasterConfidence × TeamContext. Each layer answers one question - no overlap.
Recency weighting: prior seasons contribute by recency (more recent = more weight) and sample size (more PA = more weight).
Shrinkage: observed rates regress toward position-specific population means by an amount inversely proportional to sample size. Catches small-sample outliers.
Quality-of-contact adjustments: xwOBA, barrel rate, and bat-tracking metrics replace luck-driven outcome stats with skill-driven ones.
PT modeling: projected PA is anchored to workload tier (full-time, regular, platoon, backup catcher) using historical role distributions.
Monte Carlo: N simulated seasons per player using projected mean + uncertainty, producing P10 / P50 / P90 distribution and bust%.
Confidence layers: four orthogonal multipliers: Roster (depth chart), Role (PT certainty), Sample (career PA), Market (consensus alignment). The Audit tab shows all four for every player.
VAR: Value Above Replacement at the player's primary position. Replacement levels are floored per position so SS scarcity doesn't artificially inflate stable middle infielders.
