I thought Luis Castillo had a good shot when he was on his hit streak a few years ago simply for the fact that if he just beat 4 balls into the dirt he was probably going to beat one out.

Chase Utley, on the other hand, I don't know. Joey D threw up 56 straight. I'm not trying to take away from his hit streak. 33 games is certainly impressive. But think about it. He's gotta go for 23 more to tie. 23 games is a very nice hit streak on its own. I just can't see it happening. I do hope he gets close, but I just can't see him catching or passing Joe D.
