Fantasy Baseball Today: SP Streamer and Vulture Save(s) for Saturday, July 31, 2021

Fantasy baseball… it’s dangerous to go alone.

SP Streamer

As always, check out these resources for some help picking the right guys:

  1. Pitcher List – SP Matchups & Streamer Rankings by Nick Pollack (Twitter: @PitcherList)
  2. Fangraphs Probable Pitchers: K% – BB% leaderboard.

The pick: JT Brubaker – Yes Philly’s offense scares me a little, but at least it’s in Pittsburgh (Pitcher’s ballpark). This is mostly fueled by Brubaker’s 18.6% K-BB rate, good for 7th best among today’s starting pitchers and tied with John Means. JT also has an xFIP and SIERA nearly a full run better than his current ERA. (Roster rate: Yahoo 18%, ESPN 18.8%)

  • xFIP = 3.85
  • SIERA = 3.81
  • ERA = 4.67

Vulture Save(s)

The name comes from Closer Monkey. The best resource I have found for scooping up saves in a daily moves league.

Also these sites can help as well:

  1. Fangraphs Closer Depth Chart – Nice snapshot of pitch counts in the previous six days for relevant RP.
  2. PitcherList: Bullpen Depth Charts – List of pretty much every name in a bullpen highlighted for usage.
