MLB Streak Watch

MLB Streak Watch, Colorado Rockies's Run Hits 7

Published

Streaks are the league's pulse. You can read the whole mood of MLB off who keeps stacking wins and who cannot find the exit, and this morning's board, counted straight from the results table, has some runs worth talking about.

There are seven clubs carrying streaks of three games or longer at the moment, which tells you something about how streaky this stretch of the calendar has been.

The teams stacking wins

San Diego Padres have won six straight, the longest active run in the league. Winning streaks change how a club carries itself, every bounce feels earned, every close game feels like it belongs to them until somebody proves otherwise.

Detroit Tigers carry a 4-game winning run of their own.

Washington Nationals join the party at 3 straight.

Going the wrong way

On the other side of the ledger, Colorado Rockies have dropped seven straight. Losing streaks carry their own gravity, the pressing starts, the bounces stop cooperating, and close games keep finding the same ending.

Los Angeles Angels have dropped 3 in a row themselves.

Houston Astros have lost 3 straight themselves, in case anyone at the cold end needed company.

At a glance

Every active streak of three or more, in one place:

Worth remembering

At 7 games, the board's longest streak is officially a main character; nothing else in the league gets talked about the same way while it lives.

None of these runs are forever. Enjoy them as stories, count them honestly, and remember the results table starts blank again tomorrow.

The schedule cooperates, too, Colorado Rockies face San Diego Padres next, so this story gets its next chapter almost immediately.
