Going to need a stream or two this weekend. Looking at tomorrow...anyone stand out between Stults, Fife, Arroyo, and Edwin? Cahill has been awful lately...same with Grimm.

Stults or Edwin. Stults is pitching at home, so he's much safer imho. Edwin's been unlucky and draws a great matchup too. If you have room for both I'd do it if you're behind in IP's.

I'm trying to hold off on anymore streaming until the dog days of summer and when owners out contention check out come year end, but with the injuries piling up my hand may be forced sooner. I usually don't like to stream in June and July.

Thanks. It's a weekly points league where I get 8 starts. Wheeler not starting put me down one and Burnett's injury came out of nowhere.

I probably need to consider guys Sat/Sun as well but I have not looked ahead.

In a weekly points league I am much more comfortable rolling the dice on these guys than roto. I'm still streaming like crazy in my head to head and points leagues. Risk is minimized significantly in using these types.

 
I have a 1400 IP limit in my league, trending at around 1530 right now so I'm being picky. I need wins the most FWIW when answering this:

Yes or no

Garza @ A's tomorrow night

TIA

Over innings AND need wins? I'd maybe sit him vs Oak. Man, he's been lights out though. Good luck.
 
No way can you sit Garza right now, sink or swim with him until he gives you a reason not to. Selectively bench lower K guys.

Sit Greinke. Too inconsistent since coming back from the injury and his career numbers vs. Colorado are not good.

If you own Norris you have to start him in every home game. If you aren't going to then you shouldn't own him.

 
Need two starts this week from this awesome crop. POINTS league...only care about innings, wins and strikeouts. Injury bug has struck hard and trading has been tough.

Saunders @ CIN baily

Hefner @ MIL peralta Britton...I believe now @ NYY Friday, not CWS tomorrow

Tepesch vs HOU harrell

Kelly vs MIA eovaldi

Pettibone vs ATL medlen

Diamond @ TOR dickey

Gomez vs PHI hamels

:sigh:

Hefner is a great option imo and id go with tepesch or kelly, leaning kelly

i think the choice is between tepesch and gomez.

Hefner was picked up early today.

I was leaning Kelly for one start.

Skaggs was just announced for tomorrow which gives me another option. I'd have to call him up though, which presents a problem if he is sent back down because he's about to eclipse 50 career innings. At that point I can't send him back down. But if I keep him down, he can stay there until next season if that suits me. Tough call...and the trade talks are already starting.

Think I'm going Kelly and Tepesch. Gomez is Sunday now @CHC and I don't want to risk a rain out situation.

Well, forget about needing 2. I just made a helluva trade. Acquired Gio Gonzalez from a non-contender for Leonys and Vogelbach with the stipulation that if I keep Gio I also will owe him a 5th rounder. I won't be keeping Gio though. He will be keeping Leonys as a young major leaguer and I assume Vogelbach in his minors as a flier if he gets in the right situation.

Now to decide on 1.....Kelly and Tep do worry me about a 4+ inning outing...

Cashner @ Was? currently starting

Samardigjasdaa vs Pit? leaning sit

Start both. Samardzjia has a good history against all Pirates sans McCutch and even his bad starts this season have still net a K/IP. Cashner hasn't given up > 4 ER in an outing this year, has 5 QS in a row, and the Nats are a bottom 5 offense.

Bud Norris is a sit @ StL right? Drastically worse on the road and facing Waino

Sit, for the reasons you explained. Not the same arm on the road and he'll probably need an A+ performance to possibly net a W. The way Wainwright has been pitching that may not even be enough.

 
Set my lineup (every week I bench the wrong pitchers). You must pick 7. Its a pts league so not a huge deal if I bench Jansen.

Garza (@ARI, @SF)- normally a must start but if he gets traded I could be screwed out of a start

Hefner (PHI, ATL)- hard to bench him now

Minor (@CHW, STL)- one good matchup, one bad

Parker (LAA, @HOU)- i think a no-brainer

Porcello (PHI, @CHW)- hard to ignore these matchups

Sale (DET, KC)- I never bench him

Burnett (@CIN, @WAS)- two tough matchups

Fernandez (@COL, PIT)- normally I start him but @COL is scary

Kluber (@MIN, TEX)- one good matchup, one bad

Ryu (@TOR, CIN)- hes been bad and this is two tough matchups

Jansen (10 games)

Fister @ KC

Cain v Zona

Hudson @ White Sux

Rank these in order you'd play please. Any you would avoid and why?

Fister

Hudson

Cain

Fister is a must start with high chance of a win vs a poor hitting KC team. Hudson has a great matchup. I cant start Cain vs a good lineup the way hes pitching.

Yeah that's how I had them ranked also. Cain on the road would be a no go vs Snakes but at home I'm tempted.

I'd start those six. I'd wait on Burnett off injury for sure, Fernandez would probably be my 7th because I see him having a better game at Colorado than Garza.

I think you have to start Garza, if he gets traded he will start the first day he is available, wherever he ends up.

Can't bench Minor right now, regardless of matchup.

Washington is not a tough matchup, one of the worst offenses in the league. Start Burnett.

Agreed about Hefner, Parker, Porcello, and Sale
