Top daily fantasy baseball streamers and waiver wire adds for 6/1/21. Mike Marteny identifies MLB hitters and starting pitchers to stream based on matchups.

Welcome to another edition of our daily fantasy baseball streamers! Are you playing in leagues with daily moves and looking to beef up those rosters? We here at RotoBaller are there for you and all of your streaming needs. Whether you are just trying to get that elusive category win or you are trying to give your pitching staff a lift because Chris Paddack got smoked at Wrigley yesterday, we can help. Each day, RotoBaller will provide you with some of the best streaming options to consider in both shallow and deep fantasy baseball daily leagues. Streaming hitters and pitchers to exploit matchups are important to help you win your league.

It is important to know your league if you're going to stream. I'm not just talking about which teams your leaguemates root for. I'm talking about whether strikeouts count against you for hitters or if fielding stats are included. Most importantly, you need to know how many transactions you have per week. You don't want to blow your allotment within a couple of days. You can also use these recommendations to help build your DFS lineups. This article will use rostered percentages and position eligibility from ESPN leagues.

We have 11 pitchers over 90% ownership and another seven that are above 50%. That only leaves us 11 pitchers who are under 50% owned. How bad is this pond today? Not as bad as you might think.

Hitter Streamers for 6/1 - Shallow Leagues

Mitch Garver (C, RHB, MIN) - 45.7% Rostered

Matchup: at BAL RHP Bruce Zimmerman

Zimmerman has been the victim of some bad luck, but that 5.15 ERA isn't all a fluke. He has allowed 10 homers in just 43.2 innings pitched so far this year. It's been even worse in Baltimore, where Zimmerman has allowed six of those homers in three starts. Garver has cooled off a bit, but he's still hitting .364 over the last week with a homer in that span. If your catcher isn't producing or has a bad matchup, Garver has a good one.

Evan Longoria (3B, RHB, SF) - 44.5% Rostered

Matchup: vs. LAA LHP  Andrew Heaney

Longoria is getting a MRI on his sore side today, but let's hope he's back in the lineup because he is destroying baseballs right now. Longoria is hitting .440 with four homers and 12 RBI in his last seven games. He also hits lefties 21 points better than righties in his career. The sky is the limit for Longoria today if he finds his way into the lineup.

Jonathan Villar (2B/SS/3B, SHB, NYM) - 33.4% Rostered

Matchup: at ARI LHP Caleb Smith

Villar's hot streak just keeps going. He is hitting .375 this week with a homer, five runs scored, and two steals. I'm a sucker for guys that can contribute in homers and steals, especially on waivers. Add in the multi-position eligibility, and Villar should be owned in a lot more leagues than he is. I know I need help in the middle infield. Don't you?

Garrett Cooper (1B/OF, RHB, MIA) - 31.4% Rostered

Matchup: vs. TOR LHP Robbie Ray at Buffalo

Cooper has been relegated to mostly a platoon role with Starling Marte back, but he still had a productive week with a .364 average when he was in there. Ray is an extreme fly ball pitcher in a ballpark that's on the smaller side. Cooper might strike out a few times, but the potential for a cheap homer off of waivers is just as likely.

Hitter Streamers for 6/1 - Deep Leagues

Hunter Renfroe (OF, RHB, BOS) - 16.4% Rostered

Matchup: at HOU RHP Luis Garcia

Renfroe has scored seven runs and hit two homers in his last four games. Oh.....and he's 9-13 with three RBI in that span as well. Renfroe has always run hot-and-cold. This is most definitely a hot streak right now. Ride it until it's over.

Willy Adames (SS, RHB, MIL) - 16.1% Rostered

Matchup: vs. DET LHP Matthew Boyd

Those of you watching advanced metrics and Statcast should feel the vindication of Adames' heater since being traded to the Brewers. Those watching his recent barrel percentage, launch angle, and exit velocity predicted Adames would get going soon. He is 11-33 with five runs, two homers, and nine RBI since joining the Brewers and is showing no signs of slowing down. Boyd has a lot of issues with command and fly balls. Adames is going to get you something tonight.

Elvis Andrus (SS, RHB, OAK) - 11.3% Rostered

Matchup: at SEA LHP Marco Gonzales

Gonzales has always been a much better pitcher at home, but we aren't playing Elvis to leave the building. We're playing him to boost our average and stolen bases with a run or two sprinkled in. Elvis is hitting a robust .421 over the last week, but he doesn't have much for counting stats. Still, this is a good matchup against a guy coming off the IL that likely wont go deep in the game and this bullpen is brutal. Not in a good way. Gimme some Elvis!

Jonathan Schoop (1B/2B, RHB, DET) - 10.3% Rostered

Matchup: at MIL LHP Eric Lauer

Lauer had a nice 2021 debut last week, but I'll ride Schoop's heater instead. Schoop is hitting .417 with two homers, four runs, and four RBI in the last week. Detroit has caught fire of late and has even had some good pitching. Who are these guys and why are the wearing the Tigers uniforms? Schoop is hitting in the middle of a suddenly hot lineup and he's always had a little bit of pop. He's a nice option while he's hitting well.

Pitcher Streamer for 6/1 - Shallow Leagues

Brady Singer (RHP,KC) - 21.6% rostered

Matchup: vs. Pittsburgh

It takes some stones to use Singer right now. However, if it weren't for awful starts against Tampa and Texas, Singer's ERA would be in the high 3's instead. He's prone to blowups, but I would start my 30-year-old kid sister against the Pirates right now. Singer has had a couple of higher strikeout games against Detroit and the White Sox, so he's got some K potential. The Pirates scored just 81 runs in 28 May games. Nothing in that lineup scares me right now.

Pitcher Streamers for 6/1 - Deep Leagues

Caleb Smith (LHP, ARI) - 8.5% Rostered

Matchup: vs. Mets

My only concern here is that Smith hasn't thrown more than three innings in any game this year. He likely wont go more than 4 innings, but if he's cruising along and being efficient with his pitches, we might get more. This is more a ratio thing. Smith has big strikeout upside and he hasn't walked a batter in almost two weeks. The Mets do have Pete Alonso back, but this is still not a good lineup.
