Discipline on the Diamond, Football on Deck

BrownBagBets Daily Report August 21, 2025

Yesterday wrapped at 3–4. We started 2–1 in the afternoon slate, but the night didn’t finish the way we wanted — and that’s fine. Variance is a feature, not a flaw. At BrownBagBets, we size by bankroll percent so a losing day is just a small step in a longer compounding path.

Month-to-date, we sit at 136% of our August starting bankroll. With ten days left, we’re roughly two‑thirds through the month and in a strong spot. Receipts over rhetoric: we post the math, not promises. Losing days are priced into the plan — we don’t chase; we compound.

Today, baseball stays front and center. And just ahead: college football and the NFL — historically where our edges are very strong. Until then, we’ll keep extracting value from the diamond. Let’s get it.
