Ray highlights some starting pitcher options that you should consider streaming on Wednesday, including Drew Hutchison, Nathan Eovaldi and Robbie Ross.
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.
Wednesday's Streamers
Nathan Eovaldi, Marlins vs Braves
Eovaldi's ownership percentage is up to 25%, so his early season performance is finally getting noticed. Eovaldi has given up just one earned run in his three career starts vs the Braves with a 21-6 strikeout to walk rate in 21 innings. He should continue his dominance of the strikeout prone Braves on Wednesday night.
Robbie Ross, Rangers vs A's
Ross is available in about 90% of leagues right now, and he faces the A's at home on Wednesday night. Ross has pitched well in four of his five starts this season, pitching to a 2.45 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 29.1 innings of work.
Drew Hutchison, Blue Jays vs Royals
Hutchison is owned in less than 5% of leagues right now, but he has quietly pitched very well over his last few starts. Over his last two starts, he has given up four earned runs in 11.1 innings, but has K'd 18 and walked just one in those two starts. He has given up two runs or less in four of his five starts this season, and he looks to continue that trend on Wednesday night in the pitcher-friendly Kaufman Park.
