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 leagues, and who either has a decent track record vs their opponent, has pitched well of late, or has a decent matchup.
Friday's Streamers
Travis Wood, CHC vs Phillies
Wood is under-owned (4.9%) in ESPN leagues, and has a solid match up vs the Phillies on Friday afternoon. In his lone start vs the Phillies last season, Wood gave up just two runs on six hits, a walk and seven strikeouts in 6.1 innings.
Tanner Roark, WAS vs Braves
Roark is owned in less than 1% of ESPN leagues, and has a fair match up vs the Braves on Friday afternoon. Roark pitched well in his five starts last season, going 3-1 with a 1.74 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and a 21-4 strikeout to walk rate in 31 innings.
Update: Roark pitched on Thursday.
Jenrry Mejia, NYM vs Reds
Mejia pitched well in his five starts last season, going 1-2 with a 2.30 ERA and a 27-4 strikeout to walk rate in 27.1 innings. He faces a Reds lineup that is having trouble scoring runs at the moment and a leadoff hitter struggling in his first taste vs big league pitching.
Weekly Streamer Performance
I will be providing a status of how my picks have performed over the course of the season, and below you can find how bad my picks fared on Opening Day. I am struggling out of the gate, but the same thing happened last year at this time and things turned around as the season went along.
