The Chart
A quick update. It seems no one pays attention to ESPN leagues or most of them are very small leagues. My picks will now only be under 30% rostered in Yahoo!

Analysis and Backup Options
Monday 5/13
Streamer of the Day
You know how I like it, I like going with guys who have good stuff and Jose Soriano is that. He has an above-average 105 Stuff+ for the season and takes on a Cardinals offense who has an 84 wRC+ in the last seven days.
Strikeout Upside
Jose Soriano and Trevor Williams.

Tuesday 5/14
Streamer of the Day
The Marlins offense is just flat-out not good. We are going to go with a high-floor type of pitcher here in Reese Olson. A super safe pick with a pitcher who has a decent 3.58 SIERA in the last two weeks.
Strikeout Upside
Chris Paddack and Jack Leiter.

Wednesday 5/15
Streamer of the Day
Alec Marsh’s underlying metrics before his most recent start looked pretty mixed to me. I think he is a solid option for deep leagues. In his last start he looked really good though and had an insane SwStr%. I’m not sure he repeats but he is worth the shot.
Strikeout Upside
Alec Marsh and Robert Gasser.

Thursday 5/16
Streamer of the Day
As of right now we literally have one option. Cooper Criswell vs TBR. I wouldn’t do it. I know he has looked good but the Rays are hot and great at platooning so I think we get a decent start at best.

Streamer of the Day
I am going against my sheet here as it ranks Mason Black toward the bottom for this day. But honestly, I will take a pitcher with a lot of talent against a terrible Rockies team on the road any day.
Strikeout Upside
Mason Black and Andrew Heaney.

Saturday 5/18
Streamer of the Day
It looks like Tylor Megill will be back to face Miami this week. I still have faith in his stuff as he pumps high heat with a good breaking ball. I’m hoping he is healthy and can get back to being a very good pitcher.
Strikeout Upside
Tylor Megill and Patrick Sandoval.

Sunday 5/19
Streamer of the Day
Chris Paddack has been phenomenal in his last couple of starts. He has a 30.4 K-BB% and 14.8 SwStr% in the last two weeks. He is on a heater and he takes on the coldest offense in the league right now the Guardians who have a 81 wRC+ in the last seven days.
Strikeout Upside
Chris Paddack and Jose Soriano.
