2. Bartolo Colon-New York Mets

The ageless wonder continues to be fantasy relevant in his 18th season in Major League Baseball.  Colon and the Mets are in a good matchup tonight in Philadelphia, so give the burly righty a look if you need a streaming option.

Colon has allowed three runs in his last two starts combined going 1-1 while allowing 13 hits in 11.1 innings.  He has picked up 12 strikeouts in those 11.1 innings, so he can even give you solid K’s if he’s on his game.

Last year, Colon went 4-1 against the Phillies holding them to just ten runs in 32 innings for a 2.81 ERA while picking up 32 strikeouts in 32 innings. He’s actually a good option today even though grabbing him off the waiver wire or for your DFS team may earn you a few creative comments from the others in your league.
