Streaks are a funny thing in sports and in a multiplicity of other situations in our lives. We wonder what they mean, whether they are just random fluctuations or whether they are indicative of some actual betterment or decline. Was the Tampa Bay Rays’ solid start a sign that they could exceed expectations and does their losing streak show that they have fallen back to earth? Did Blake Snell‘s scoreless streak indicate that his upside is closer to an ace than a number three starter? The questions never end, and the only true way to answer them accurately is to wait.
