Wow. Yesterday was a bad day for our group. Of the ten people that made a pick, eight of those players didn’t get a hit. That means eight streaks got reset to a ZERO yesterday. Myself (spudart) and nickmaize are the lucky ones to have survived with a hit. My streak now gets up to …

May has not been too kind with me so far. I’m using strategy #7 this month: the top 30 players with the most GH from 2010. (GH = Games with a Hit). You’d think the top of the list should totally rock the start of May. After all, last year they were the best Beat …
Simply the best Beat the Streak hitter EVER. Like ever ever. Of all time in baseball. Better than Pete Rose. Better than Stan Musial. Better than Lou Gehrig. It’s almost cheating to play Ichiro every day. But since he’s the best BTS player ever, it’s actually smart. I’m just not that smart, so I try …
