There are several records that may not be broken.
Cal Ripen's streak of games played
Joe D's 56 game hitting streak.
Cy Young's 511 wins.
a few others I cant even think of right now.

The youngest player to ever play. Joe Nuxhull played (pitched) for the Reds when he was 15 years old and since then MLB made a rule age minimum... so the youngest major league baseball player record will never be broken.

there really is no 'only' record that will never be broken...there are a lot of records that will never be broken...
Cy Young's 511 wins (as well as his record for loses). This is easily the most unbreakable record.
Hitting streaks can be broken, just takes more luck than anyone's had so far.
Ripken's streak will be broken... people said Gehrig's streak of 2,130 would never be broken....Ripken not only broke it, he shattered it...going another 500 games...
Because human characteristics like dediciation and the ability to play with pain can be applied to breaking Ripken's record, someone will eventually break it...obviously, it will not be broken by any ordinary individual, but someone eventually will play in 2,700 consecutive games... whether that happens in any of our lifetimes remains to be seen.
Hitting streaks are tougher, because you can't manufacture a hit by being determined... DiMaggio's record could be broken, but whoever does it has to be completely immune to media pressure.
Those of you younger fans who think Ripken's record can't be broken, trust me...you have no idea how 'unbreakable' Gehrig's record was considered to be... until Ripken came along... same thing will happen to Cal's record some day... 'consecutive' game streaks are almost the easiest records to break, because they're not based on performance, just appearances (I understand that you have to perform at a certain level to get those opportunities, but your performance on the field has nothing to do with the record itself).
Johnny Vander meer's 2 straight no hitters would be tough to break, since in order to do so, one would have to pitch THREE consecutive no - hitters... still, that's probably easier than winning 512 games.

Records are made to be broken so you never know for sure.
I would think Ripkens consecutive games played streak is probably safe and I hope Dimaggios 56 game hitting streak will hold up as well.
Those 2 records have the least chance of being broken IMO.

DiMaggios' fifty six consecutive sport hit streak. the kind of streak can't bypass previous 2 seasons and does no longer span a occupation. the most important reason it is genuinely no longer damaged is via each and each of the media interest in excellent this second's society and activities. Any participant who has lately neared 35 video games is micro analyzed and said on daily. As that participant reaches 40 5 video games, the rigidity of the consistent questioning will proceed to strengthen even extra. by the point 50 consecutive video games in reached, there'll be Countdowns in daily newspapers and contained in the activities sections of information superhighway web content inclusive of Yahoo and Google. There also are the variables the participant faces on the field each sport and through each at bat. in short, the pressures will be too extreme and vast for a participant to achieve fifty six video games - now to not coach fifty seven..

There are so many records in baseball. I thought Hank Aaron's record would never come close to being broken, but Bonds now is chasing it. I just hope he doesn't breaks it. But to me there are two extremely hard records to break. Joe DiMaggio's 56 games hitting streak, and Cal Ripken, Jr.'s 2,632 consecutive games played

I will say without a doubt Cal Ripkin's record of consecutive games will NEVER be broken.
All of the other ones have potential but nobody today has the stamina or work ethic to push themselves to even come close to Cal Ripkin.

Many people know Cy Young for his wins and losses records but he also has another record that will never even come close to being broken. In his career, he threw 749 COMPLETE GAMES!!!!!!!

Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak. Think about that for a second: in 56 consecutive games he got a hit. Unbelievable!! Nobody will ever come close.

Cy Young. But not the 511 wins. I'm voting for the 316 losses. NO ONE will ever even come close to 300 losses again.
