Ray highlights some starting pitcher options that you should consider streaming on Thursday, including Tyson Ross and Tyler Skaggs.
The Streamer Report provides you with daily startng pitcher streaming selections for owners who prefer to stream starting pitchers on a daily basis. This report identifies starting pitchers who are owned in less than 50% of ESPN leagues, and who either has a decent track record vs their opponent, has pitched well of late, or has a decent matchup.
Thursday's Streamers
Tyson Ross, Padres vs Reds
Ross is owned in 18.2% of leagues right now, but that will change as the season goes along. Ross is coming of two consecutive starts where he has given up just one earned run over seven innings, and faces the Reds who rank 28th in runs scored this season. Look for Ross to pitch well in Cincy on Thursday.
Tyler Skaggs, Angels vs Rays
Skaggs is owned in just over 10% of leagues right now, and he faces the Rays on Thursday night. Skaggs is coming off a solid performance in Toronto in his last start, where he gave up just two runs in eight innings. He is pitching well this season, going 3-1 worth a 4.14 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in seven starts. His season stat line would look much better had he not get torched by Texas back on May 4th.
Weekly Streamer Performance
I will be providing a status of how my picks have performed over the course of the season, and below you can find how my picks fared this week. Week 6 was very good to me, and hopefully you, but Week 7 has started with a THUMP thanks to Tyler Lyons laying an egg vs the Cubs last night.
