MLB Hit Streaks: Longest Current Streaks in Baseball
By Sascha Paruk
Updated:
MLB hit props are becoming more popular by the year and bettors are constantly looking for an edge on the books.
This page tracks the longest active hit streaks in the MLB to help readers find the hot hand and, in turn, the strongest MLB player props to bet today.
The table below lists every player active today who has a hit streak of five games or longer, along with each player’s: odds to record a hit in today’s game (“HIT”), odds to record 2+ total bases (“TB”), and odds to record 2+ hits/runs/RBI (“HRR”).
Current MLB Hit Streaks
Note that the list above is confined to players involved in today’s games.
Blindly betting a hitter on a hot streak is leaves a lot to be desired in terms of methodology. SBD has a host of relevant pages which should be used in conjunction with the hit streak tracker in order to find today’s best picks.
MLB Weather Conditions Impact Chances of Hits
One of the biggest factors impacting hitters is the weather conditions. Cold temperatures, wind blowing in, and high humidity will negatively impact every batter’s chances of recording a hit, while warmer, drier air with wind blowing out will do the opposite.
SBD’s MLB weather page allows all bettors to see the expected conditions at all ballparks.
Park Factors Can Boost/Hinder Batters
Every MLB ballpark is unique and some are much more hitter-friendly that others due to their dimensions. Before betting on a streaking batter to record a hit, check which stadium they’re playing in and what its MLB Park Factor is over the last three seasons.
Batter-vs-Pitcher Matchups Are Massively Important
Arguably the single-biggest factor impacting a batter’s chances of recording a hit is the pitcher on the other side. Is it someone who’s historically dominated a particular hitter? Is it a lefty facing a southpaw-averse batter?
SBD’s batter-vs-pitcher stats lists the best and worst matchups for every day of the season.
