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.
Saturday's Streamers
Dillon Gee, NYM vs Reds
Gee is owned in 34.4% of ESPN leagues and is looking to improve upon his Opening Day start where he gave up 4 runs on 4 hits, 2 walks and 5 strikeouts in 6.2 innings. Gee has made just one start vs the Reds in his career with a 4.50 ERA.
Michael Pineda, NYY vs Blue Jays
Pineda had a surprisingly solid spring, so I am going to roll with him on Saturday on the road vs the Blue Jays. This is his first real start in two years, and I think he will have a successful return. He is owned in 26.2% of ESPN leagues at the moment.
Tyler Skaggs, LAA vs Astros
Like Pineda, Skaggs had a solid spring, and I think he can pitch well enough against an Astros team that will struggle to score runs this season. Skaggs is owned in less than 1% of ESPN leagues at the moment, and i think that could change after this start.
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 this week. 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.
