what do u think.. Rollins hitting streak extends to 38 games in a row, will he break DiMaggios record of 56 games in a row?

Even if he does, DiMaggio did it in a single season...

I hope so. The hit streak and the .400 average are the 2 records that are not tainted by the steroid binge of the last 10-15 years. No * needs to be put next a players name if either of these are broken.

How long do you think it will be before the .400 avg gets touched again? I think it might happen by 2010.

Personally i feel its more of an accomplishment to do it the way Rollins is, i mean hell he had to wait an entire off-season to come back and continue.. like thats a lot of time off and to be able to get right back into a zone is amazing.. i still dont think he will do it thou

There have only been a handfull of players that have made an actual run at it. I thought tony gwynn, larry walker and pete rose may be able to do it. Now I think ichiro may be the one.

ichiro may actually be able to break the hit streak and or the .400 average. His slap hitting gets the job done.
