2–0 Sweep Bankroll: 100% All 30 MLB Teams Live Pick Updates

We found two early edges yesterday (both -1.5 run lines flagged just after 8:00 AM ET) and swept the board 2–0. That’s not chest-thumping; that’s the process working: good pitching matchups, clean indicators, disciplined sizing — execute, move on.

The bigger picture: in two days we erased the early-August dip and now sit at 100% of our starting bankroll. If you’re new, this is the BrownBagBets way — we play the long game. Our proprietary bankroll intelligence ties unit size to confidence, market quality, and variance so your capital behaves like an investment, not a thrill ride. We track returns monthly, not emotionally.

Also worth noting: volume has side benefits. Over the last 12 days you may have logged 70–80 wagers depending on your book, which means tier credits piling up with your preferred apps. Break-even bankroll; stacked comps. That’s real-world value on top of disciplined ROI.

Today, all 30 MLB teams are on the slate. We’ve already got a couple of matchups we like and we’ll continue to mine the board as information firms up. We’ve also updated our posting cadence: picks will now drop in timestamped blocks (e.g., “Updated: 10:15 AM ET”). Check back — if the time is new, the plays are new.

Humble, confident, transparent — that’s the BrownBagBets promise. Learn the indicators with us, size with discipline, and let the month do the talking. Onward.
