#1 \| 71 days ago tpowell25 (+)	+1 Thanks to CPops for the idea to put a bunch of hitters who started the season slow out of the gate on a poll. Most of these hitters was his idea too. Thanks Pops.

#9 \| 71 days ago RenegadeLG (+)	(Edited by RenegadeLG) Considering nobody has ever come within 6 of Joe DiMaggio on MLB.com, it's a matter of fact that they're not going to here either. However I knew there'd be a ton of huge streaks early, and I bet somebody gets 25-30 by the end of the season. 1. Troy Tulowitzki (COL) @ LAD 2. 7-9 3. Oakland @ Seattle

I can't get past 8 before hitting a road bump. I got greedy with Chipper the first time. I took him one too many times and he finally had an 0-fer. I'm back up to a daunting 2 now.
