JoyceG in 2024

JoyceG has the longest streak in 2024 with 49 games. Built mostly from picking one player a day. Often skipping days. People online were analyzing her careful picks.

Then there is Hangman6049, who makes two picks a day. When JoyceG reached 49, he zoomed to 45. Since JoyceG makes such slow picks, people were thinking that Hangman6049 might get to 57 before JoyceG does.

Imagine being JoyceG making careful picks. Only picking a player when the situations are all good. You hit 57 games, but someone else got to 57 before you, because that person made two quick picks a day.

JoyceG’s streak is the 4th longest streak ever. She is the 5th player all-time to reach 49 games.

She has used 17 players in the 49-game streak:

Shohei Ohtani8
Bobby Witt Jr.7
Jose Altuve6
Trea Turner5
Luis Arraez3
Aaron Judge3
Mookie Betts3
Alec Bohm3
Christian Yelich2
William Contreras1
Juan Soto1
Paul Goldschmidt1
Jurickson Profar1
Jose Iglesias1
Adley Rutschman1
Ryan Mountcastle1
Ezequiel Duran1

Her 20 last picks used ten different players
