Original research. "Consecutive title streaks" is not discussed by independent RS for a majority of these "streaks". Natg 19 (talk) 17:18, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. Hopefully, someone can find sourcing to satisfy NLIST, as I find this fascinating. Good old Dan Brouthers leading MLB in slugging percentage six straight years. And Ralph Kiner too with home runs. Good stuff. Cbl62 (talk) 15:10, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

- Comment pull out the stats books, there is ample documentation for baseball stats, but to source each one would be a pain in the backside. Oaktree b (talk) 19:34, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOTSTATS. Even if the stats can be verifiably found to be true; this is not encyclopedic material (and indeed, very much WP:FANCRUFT) if no independent, reliable sources cover this in a significant fashion. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 13:53, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: To give a little more time in case more reliable sources are out there.

- Delete useful content, but Wikipedia is not a statsbook. Different content could be moved to the appropriate article (i.e. list of batting title streaks could be moved to batting average), but a central list here is not the right answer. Frank Anchor 15:25, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
