MLB Starting Pitcher Patrol: The Best SP Streamers for (6/13/16)

By Keith Allison [CC-BY-SA-2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

Welcome to Week 11 of the baseball season. It's a smaller slate for a Monday, with 10 games on tap. Notable names taking the mound include Zack Greinke and Max Scherzer, although the purpose of this article we'll be focusing on players with 65% ownership or less.

In this article, I’ll be providing you with the top starting pitcher streamers for daily fantasy baseball (DFS) and for seasonal leagues for 6/13/16. These streamers will range from high-priced / high-ownership options to low-priced / low-ownership options, and will be sleepers and value picks for your cash games and GPPs on DraftKings and FanDuel, and also for seasonal leagues with daily lineups.

There'll be three main sections of this article: our Pitcher Matchups Tool’s top plays, my value plays, and pitchers to fade. I highly recommend you check out the Daily Pitcher Matchups Ratings tool - it's an extremely useful tool for daily fantasy or seasonal streaming for finding the diamonds in the rough. Anyways, let's get rowdy.

 

Daily Pitcher Matchup Ratings Tool Top Plays

Ricky Nolasco (SP, MIN) at Angels

Risky Stream

Nolasco has been close to impossible to trust. He followed up two quality starts with getting thrown around by Miami for 11 extra-base hits. If there's a positive here it's the fact Nolasco's crutch is the long ball, while the Angels 40 HR versus RHP is 25th in baseball. Throw in the possible of Mike Trout (hand) missing the game and Nolasco has value in deeper formats.

Chase Anderson (SP, MIL) at Giants

Solid Stream

Anderson, along with Zach Davies, have been the lone bright spots in the Brewers rotation. Anderson has a 2.03 ERA in his last five starts while the Giants .709 OPS versus RHP is 21st in baseball.

 

Max’s Value Plays of the Day

R.A. Dickey (SP, TOR) vs Phillies

Solid Stream

The Phillies .662 OPS versus RHP is 28th in baseball and I expect them to struggle with the knuckle. The Blue Jays are heavy favorites (-205) making this is a great opportunity to pick up a win on your stream.

Jered Weaver (SP, LAA) vs Twins

Risky Stream

Do you trust Weaver? Me neither, but the Twins have a .702 OPS versus RHP, 23rd in baseball. If you must feel the need to stream today, here's where I draw the line.

 

Starting Pitchers to Fade in Daily Fantasy Baseball

James Shields (SP, CWS) vs Tigers

Shields has had a rough 2016 and things didn't change by switching jerseys (2 IP, 7 ER in White Sox debut). The Tigers .770 OPS versus RHP is 6th overall.

Wei-Yin Chen (SP, MIA) at Padres

Chen is winless in his past five starts and for all the critique I give the Padres, their .762 OPS versus LHP is 8th overall.
