Ray highlights some starting pitcher options that you should consider streaming on Thursday, including Juan Nicasio and Josh Beckett.
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
Josh Beckett, Dodgers vs Twins
Beckett is owned in 20% of leagues right now, and he is pitching like the old Beckett from a few seasons ago in the early going of the 2014 season. Beckett's velocity is up to the 93-94 range and he is pitching to a 2.45 ERA and 0.91 WHIP in four starts this season, while striking out a batter per inning.
Juan Nicasio, Rockies vs Mets
Nicasio is available in 99% of leagues right now, but that is because he is a Rockies pitcher, who are undervalued in some deeper leagues. Nicasio got knocked around in his last start vs the Dodgers, but will look to bounce back vs the Mets on Thursday.
