So, I've always kind of thought that the Jose Altuve/Pete Rose comparison was interesting. So I decided to look at it myself. Don't know if this has been done like this elsewhere, but whatever. #Astros

Altuve played his 1,121st career game tonight vs. Tampa. He had no hits, but has 1,421 career hits. By Pete Rose's 1,121st career game, he had 1,397 career hits. This chart shows how their cumulative hits to game 1121 progressed. #Astros

And if you're curious how Pete Rose's career hits progressed beyond game 1,121, here you go. The vertical line indicates where we currently are in Altuve's career on this arc. Anyway, something I've wanted to do for awhile.

Fair enough :) I was wondering if there should have been a line plotting Altuve's against Pete Rose's up to the point of the vertical line. I'd be curious to see how his progression looks compared to Pete's up to that point.
