What sucks (#3)

About Rollins' chase is the timing.  Even if he starts off with a 21-game hitting streak, the record will be forever tainted because of the offseason in between.

Plus it just doesn't seem right that Jimmy Rollins (a charter member of Bill Simmons' "Reggie Cleveland Hall of Fame") could unseat "the great DiMaggio" (as Hemingway wrote) as the record holder.

DiMaggio, Rollins... Hemingway, Simmons... no contest here.

has already said that it would be two different records if JRoll does indeed break it.  Dimaggio will still have the longest single season hitting record but Jimmy will have the longest hitting streak.

I'm rooting for Rollins.
