I'm rooting for this guy. I love his game and he has one of the best personalities in baseball.

Know what's interesting? Guess who Jimmy would be going against if his hit streak were to reach 44 games... Perhaps he should be getting on the phone to ol' Pete to try and get a couple pointers.

I've got the kid's back until he gets to 43 and then again if he makes it past 45 games, though. He's on his own for that three game stretch though.

Actually, it's a common misconception that steroids only have to do with HR's. That's not true at all.

Steroids help players recover faster from injury, keep players fresh the entire season (ie: they never hit "the wall"), in some instances help a player see the ball better etc.... It's not just about muscle mass and hitting HR's. See many of the players who got caught using last year.

With that said, there's no reason for me to think Rollins did them.

Yep, when I blew my knee out the doc gave me steroids to heal faster. I don't think he took them, but I wouldn't be surprise now a days! Jimmy is from around here and the the team I coach for played his High School, he is a good guy, so I wish the best for him! I think that is the hardest record to break in baseball. That and probably 400. But even then you can have a bad night.

Don't forget the consecutive games played aka Ironman record.

Yeah that is a good one, but hitting to me would be harder. Because you can start one inning and leave! But you can't leave a game without hit!
