I've been playing the game since the first release back in 1999 and while I have never done an official study and while I am sure others will refute these claims, I really think there are more extreme hot and cold streaks in the game than you see in real life. The end of the year totals may look fine, but the way you get there is through more extreme periods of hot and cold. This is with individual players and teams in general. If you accept that going in and know that when you are cold you just have to ride it out and better times are coming, it makes it a little easier....and those hot streaks are fun!
