Last year only about 4 or 5 of us did this,but I did find it interesting,and fun......

Quick Explanation...for those who didn't play,you select 1 MLB player a day to get a hit,as long as he get's one hit that day...You win,he fails you lose....The players lock when the first game of the day starts...

I pretty sure it was Brian who started this last year,but I remember joining about mid year...I was hoping for a slightly better jump getting started this year...

Who's up for it this year? Shall I make a group?

^^ Woohoo...I'm there too!

This morning when I posted this it said groups weren't available yet,would be available tonight/tomorrow ...

So the group is already there! Just search for TDMMC...

The site is MLB.com,under the fantasy tab,then Scott's Beat the streak
(A free MLB.com account required to play)
http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/fantasy/?tcid=nav_mlb_fantasy

Modified to add...Anyone notice the changes this year?
I've not seen any jump picks (the guy you automatically pick if you forget to pick if you have a streak of 3 or less)

The one Get out of jail free card,one time if you have a streak broken between 5-9 you get a free pass....

The Double down,being able to pick two people,but both have to hit or your streak is broken...but goes up by two if you win....

I went for the double dip myself......I will probably use that quite a bit to get a good streak going then start getting more conservative. My goal is to pass my 15? gamer from last season. I think that is what it was.

I think you are right on the 15... I was one behind you on my last streak at the end of the year, and I'm pretty sure I was at 14.
