Analysis and Backup Options

Monday 6/17

Streamer of the Day

Randy Vasquez takes on the Phillies in Philly. Honestly, this is a terrible terrible streaming day and I only do this if I have to. The Phillies are a tough offense to face but we are more so relying on Vasquez's skill set here. He gets a ton of horizontal movement on his pitches and he does throw mid 90’s.

Strikeout Upside

Randy Vasquez.

Tuesday 6/18

Streamer of the Day

Alec Marsh stymied the Yankees in his last start. They had trouble getting to him and Marsh really showed how well he can pitch. He has a 3.48 SIERA in the last two weeks and he takes on a terrible offense in Oakland.

Wednesday 6/19

Streamer of the Day

Another tough streaming day here. We are going to go with the very inconsistent Sean Manaea here. He takes on the Rangers in Texas. It is a decent pitchers park and the Rangers have gone ice cold with a 67 wRC+ in the last week.

Thursday 6/20

Streamer of the Day

This week is a rough one for streaming ladies and gentlemen. Keaton Winn draws the start in St. Louis here. Winn has tremendous underlying numbers with a 112 Stuff+ but the Cardinals do hit RHP well. We shall see with this one!

Friday 6/21

Streamer of the Day

There isn’t much to say about Carlos Carrasco. I will say, he has seen a recent spike in his swinging strike rate so that is a good sign. He takes on the Blue Jays who we all know is a complete mess of a team. They don’t strike out much but they also don’t hit the ball very hard.

Strikeout Upside

Patrick Sandoval and Trevor Rogers.

Ratio Play (High Floor)

Carlos Carrasco.

Win/QS Potential

Carlos Carrasco and Cooper Criswell.

If I Had to Rank The Top Five

  4. Joey Estes vs MIN

  5. Trevor Rogers vs SEA

Saturday 6/22

Streamer of the Day

Chris Paddack’s last start was a good one. Yes, he faced a bad offense but his velocity remained up and he did induce a good amount of whiffs. I still think he figures it out at some point. He takes on Oakland in this one making this a no-brainer.

Strikeout Upside

Chris Paddack, Frankie Montas, and Tylor Megill.

Ratio Play (High Floor)

Chris Paddack, Tylor Megill, Andrew Thorpe, and Frankie Montas.
