Outside of a stinker from Michael McGreevy, I was really pleased with last week’s streamers. This is one of the toughest times to pick streamers because these teams are doing some bizarre things with their rotations and lineups. What is easy to figure out are these matchups because there’s a handful of lineups we want […]

Our streamers last week were all over the map, with Jacob Lopez and Matt Shaw looking like the highlights of that piece. We also got a nasty dud from Zebby Matthews and a bizarre two-start week from Jack Leiter, but stinkers are inevitable from streamers. That’s the volatility of picking streamers every week because these […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Our streamers were solid last week. That’s what we needed after a disappointing Week 18, and it’s wild to think we only have a handful of weeks remaining. It’s always frightening how fast the end of the season comes because it just means the years are flying by. It’s even harder to believe this is […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I haven’t had many poor weeks with streamers this season, but last week was one of them. Brady Singer crushed us against the Pirates, and Spencer Arrighetti looked atrocious in his debut. The good news is that the hitting streamers were solid, and that’s a little bonus in an otherwise disappointing week. What’s fascinating about […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How about that trade deadline? It didn’t feel like we had any true “blockbusters,” but seeing half of the relievers in baseball get moved was a fascinating development. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen so many bullpen shake-ups at any other deadline, and it’s going to lead to some chaos for the final two months. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?My first article back from the break did a great job with the pitchers, but a disappointing performance from the hitters. That’s naturally the more likely outcome when examining streamers because it’s much easier to predict the arms than the bats. What makes it even easier is that we have some of the worst lineups […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I think many people look at the All-Star break as a time to recharge their batteries and get ready for the stretch run, but that’s not me. I actually hate when we take a week off because I don’t know what to do with myself. The fiend in me needs that baseball every day because […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I hate to toot my own horn, but I crushed last week’s article. Grant Holmes, Edward Cabrera and Eric Lauer all threw gems, while the hitters were nothing to complain about. What’s truly remarkable is that this is the final week before the All-Star break. It feels like the season just started two months ago, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We had another solid showing last week, but Hayden Birdsong crapped on our car once again. That’s the second time he’s burned me this month, and we just have to let those guys go sometimes. I’m still happy with the results, but this will be a tough week. There weren’t many streamers who stood out […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I was pretty happy with last week’s streamers. The only real dud was from Hayden Birdsong, but San Fran switched up the matchup on us. That will be a common occurrence from our streamers as the season progresses because these rotations tend to get bonkers throughout the second half of the year. The nonsense shouldn’t […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?After a rough showing two weeks ago, we bounced back last week. Bryce Elder was a terrible pick as one of our streamers, but he was really the only dud in that piece. It’s ironic because it’s the Rockies who got to him, because we’ll keep riding streamers against them for the remainder of the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I’ve yet to have a bad showing in any of my articles this season, but last week was a miss. It’s frustrating to have such a weak week of streamers, but it’s inevitable with how volatile these pitchers can be. We have to chalk it up to the Rockies having their best week of the […]
