Today, we have 15 games worth of pitchers to choose from but even with all of the options, there aren’t many start-worthy pitchers for season long leagues. With that being said, there are two decent streaming options and a stellar cash game play. I’ll tell you about those players along with all of my start/sit recommendations. Let’s take a look!

Top Streamer
Jaime Garcia (MIN @ OAK)
After the streaming options we have been spoiled with lately, it is disappointing to settle for Garcia here, but there is enough to like. Seeing that he gets a ballpark upgrade and goes against a lackluster lineup, our model projects that neither his ERA or WHIP will hurt your team tonight. Garcia also gives you a decent shot at picking up the victory tonight.
Top DFS Cash Game Option
Alex Wood (LAD vs SFG)
Just look at the spread tonight. Minus -305. THREE OH FIVE!! Oh man! Not only does San Francisco have an abysmal lineup, but Wood has been downright filthy this season and is virtually a lock to get the win thanks in part to the run support expected against Matt Moore tonight. There are nights to fade the most expensive option in cash games and tonight is not one of them.
Top DFS Tournament Option
Danny Salazar (CLE @ CHW)
Perhaps you didn’t notice, but Salazar has been back to his former self, striking out the world and taking no prisoners. Tonight, he gets the White Sox’ second string and should, again, pile up the Ks. He will almost certainly be highly owned at just $8,200 on FanDuel, but sometimes you just have to ignore ownership and use the top option anyways.
