  • 11 days in a row..

    My shitty hitters are under .300. Can't have one fucking day of solid hitting.

    Still have not a day of my team hitting over.300 since May 9th.

    I know that no one cares, but for fucks sake, this is unreal. You figure at least ONE FUCKING DAY!!

        Will that make them hit better?

                I only wish my problems were only this bad. I think I've had about as a long a streak w/o my guys hitting over .200

                  possibly some innumeracy here

                  a dozen years ago, .268 was about average - so .300 on a day seemed very attainable

                  now that same MLB AVG is .244

                  so in 2006, did you gripe about how many days in a row your team didn't hit .320?

                    In my 10 teams NL league we have 7 teams hitting between 241 to 248. If you look across the board for each team there is a plethora of hitters hitting below their normal average. This may have something to do with the unusual cold weather we had April into May.
