For those unfamiliar, 'beat the streak' is a MLB.com contest where you must select one hitter to get at least one hit in their game.
If successful you continue............
I am a perfect 7 for 7 so far, going for 8.

Who is most likely to get at least one hit today.

Derek Jeter who is 12 for 30 (.400) v. Shields (TB) lifetime, and hitting .304 this season thus far.

OR

Dustin Pedroia who is 6 for 11 (.555) v. Meche (KC) lifetime, but is only hitting .250 this season.

Both hit at the top of the lineup and are almost guaranteed 5 plate appearances, (both teams are on the road, which means both teams will hit in the ninth inning regardless)

I am leaning Jeter myself.

Input appreciated.

Cano own Shields also.
Thing is Cano may only get up 4 times.

I just locked in Jeter, Pedroia is a solid pick as well.
Here's wishing they both get at least one safety.

sounds good to me!! Here's to hoping we can take home the 3$ million LOL... My longest streak last year was 32 or around there. I was so pissed when it came to an end (thanks alot Tulowitzki!) that I didn't try to build another streak with over a month and a half to go in the season. Anyways, lets hope we can do some damage this year and win a prize!

Pedroia....if he doesnt hit the starter he has a crack at a bad bullpen

I got the first eight so far, you with me?

p.s. best I had was the high 20's, like 27 in a row or something like that.

I have 7 wins in a row right now. If you had 27 in a row you had to win the 100k right?
Nope. 30+ u win a month of MLB TV... 40+ you win gift certificate and 50_ a bigger gift certificate then 57 is the grand prize.

I'm not with you at 8 right now billhill. I'm at 3. I forgot about it until a few days ago. But I am 3/3 so far

Sorry didn't read carefully. I was talking about ESPN beat the streak to win 100k. You only need about 21 wins to get it roughly
