The Streamer Report provides you with daily startng pitcher streaming selections for owners who prefer to stream starting pitchers on a daily basis. This report identifies starting pitchers who are owned in less than 50% of ESPN Yahoo leagues, and who either has a decent track record vs their opponent, has pitched well of late, or has a decent matchup.
Before I take a look at Friday's streaming options, let's see how my streamers fared on Wednesday:

Friday's Streamers
Marco Estrada vs Cubs
Estrada is owned in 16.2% of ESPN leagues and faces the Cubs lineup on Friday night. He has mixed excellent outing with some not so good outings since his return from the DL, and he is due for another solid outing after giving up 4 runs in his last start. If you are in need of some strikeouts, Estrada is your guy.
Joe Kelly vs Pirates
Kelly is owned in 13.2% of ESPN leagues, and I am riding Kelly while he is pitching well as he gets the light hitting Pirates on Friday night. He has given up two runs or less in each of his last four starts and in eight of his last nine starts.
Juan Nicasio vs Padres
Nicasio is barely owned in ESPN leagues, but he gets the Padres at Petco on Friday night where he will be looking to bounce back from the six runs he gave up in his last start vs the Reds. Prior to that start, he had given up three runs or less in his last four starts.
