I don't have data to support this statement, but I would say that at any given point in the majors, there's at least 5-8 players on hitting streaks around 10 games. The thing is, ESPN doesn't really talk about a 10-game hitting streak because it's not THAT big of a deal.

I rarely (no more than three times a year) see 20 game hitting streaks in OOTP. This is realistic. I don't think I've ever seen a streak get to 30.

I think you just might be underestimating the frequency and length of real life hitting streaks.
