Each day in this daily post you can find my top 5 scheduled starters that are available in over 50% of ESPN leagues. I’ve included their ownership level in ESPN leagues in parentheses after their name at the top of each slide. These pitchers aren’t usually big names that are impossible to pick up in season-long leagues or that cost an huge percentage of your DFS salary cap. However, I think they can step up and produce solid outings given their current form, opponent, and potential to put together solid numbers. Each morning, you can find these “best available” starting pitchers on our FanSided fantasy baseball hub.
Yesterday, my top 5 fantasy baseball streaming pitchers picked up three no-decisions while going 1-1 with a 3.98 ERA. Derek Holland (pictured above) got me the only win of the day by throwing six shutout innings against the Angels. My other starters were mostly just OK but didn’t get the run support or bullpen help they needed to get a W. We’re two weeks in to this post for the season and my total numbers for my 65 picks are 26-22 with a 4.20 ERA and a 1.335 WHIP. My fantasy baseball streaming pitchers have also picked up a pretty solid 7.62 K/9, and hopefully today’s picks can keep those moving in the right direction.
