Sleeper or Streaming Options

player. 17. In his first four starts, Foltynewicz is 2-1 with a 5.32 ERA. He has picked up seven strikeouts in each of his last three outings, but his 1.73 WHIP is still a bit un-nerving.. Atlanta Braves. vs. Brewers. Mike Foltynewicz. 24

player. 95. Gallardo has been inconsistent this season and has only held opponents under three earned runs in one of his last six starts.. Texas Rangers. @ Yankees. Yovani Gallardo. 23

22. player. 31. Hudson had allowed three or more runs in six straight starts before holding the Dodgers scoreless for 6.1 innings in his last outing.  He takes on the Rockies at Coors Field today which doesn’t look likely to yield the same results as his last time out.. San Francisco Giants. @ Rockies. Tim Hudson

player. 3. Niese is normally a solid streaming option, but he’s been thumped for 14 runs in his last two starts by the Cubs and Cardinals.. New York Mets. @ Pirates. Jonathon Niese. 21

20. player. 90. Gonzalez has given up five earned runs or more in three of his last five starts as his ERA has ballooned to just under 5.00. He lost to the Phillies in his first start of the year and has a scary 8.44 ERA in his three day-game starts this season.. Washington Nationals. vs. Phillies. Gio Gonzalez

player. 4. Liriano has been pounded lately allowing 16 runs over his last three starts all losses.  He still has potential to dominate the Mets at home which is why he still is in the top half of these starting pitcher rankings, but he has been struggling lately.. Pittsuburgh Pirates. vs. Mets. Francisco Liriano. 19

vs. Orioles. Tom Koehler. 18. player. 82. Koehler hasn’t allowed an earned run in either of his last two outings (one out of the bullpen) spanning nine innings allowing seven hits and two walks while striking out seven.  He will look to establish his spot in the rotation which is shifting under new manager Dan Jennings.. Miami Marlins

Iglesias gets his third start of the season as he takes the hill in place of Johnny Cueto today.  In his last start he allowed just one run on two hits in eight innings while beating the Braves.. Cincinnati Reds. @ Indians. Raisel Iglesias. 17. player. 61
