This thread got me playing this and doing ESPN beat the streak again a few days ago. First attempt on both and got 7 and 8, respectively. But I am back to zero on both.

I decided to start playing today myself.

I used Carrera and Devon Travis going against Jimmy Nelson.

Travis has a hit.. just waiting on Carrera now.

once you've used a player and your streak is still alive I'm assuming you can't use them again? sorry for being lazy and not looking at the rules.

Blackmon has been a pretty safe pick this year

Agreed, I had Blackmon.

And Turner, who ended up not playing, so I'm up to 7. I'm glad he didn't end up pinch hitting.

Can you pick the same guys over and over? Or do you have to mix it up?

You could pick same guy every day, but you'd be banking on him going on a legendary hitting streak. I dropped in on Jackie Bradley Jr's 29-game hitting streak last year. I think i picked him 10 or 11 days in a row, but then stayed away from him

I'm back up to 2. Awesome!

You'd think getting to cherry pick matchups that this would be easier... but it's not.

Ive had the most success when I dont overthink it, and just go with a gut pick.


Of course thats probably also why I havent been above 11 this year

Downloaded the app a few days ago because of this thread. I have been as high as 6, then Bryce Harper killed me against Dickey. I learned that I should probably stay away from kuckleballers.

Blackmon has been pretty solid so far. I'm at 4 again with some shaky picks. We'll see...

Pretty fun game that has me paying attention to guys that I don't normally pay attention to.

I approve of this thread.

Been playing BTS for a few years now, but I'm not all that great at it tbh.

I'm at 2 right now. Forgot to make picks yesterday, but I used Michael Brantley and Matt Kemp on Wednesday.

Not sure who I am using today yet.
