Daily Fantasy Baseball Streamers - MLB Hitter, Pitcher Lineup Picks for Wednesday 9/2

After last night's offensive explosion across the MLB, it should send all the fantasy managers racing to the waiver wire looking for a hot hand. There is no shortage of streamers available to help boost your team past the others. Grab them fast while you still can!

When choosing my daily hitter streamers, I examine their platoon splits, lineup position, and pitching matchup. With pitchers, I account for the opposing lineup, team ballpark, and recent performance to help make my decision.

Each of my daily lineup streamers will be rostered in between 0-40% of Yahoo leagues, with a mixed focus on both shallow and deeper formats. Today, I will be providing a streamer for each position, including one starting pitcher. Let’s take a look at the Wednesday slate and dig out some streamer gems to help you create the week with a bang!

Featured Promo: For this week only, take 50% off any full-season or yearly Premium Pass on the site! Just enter discount code THANKS when checking out. Thanks for being a reader, and Happy Holidays! Sign Up Now!

 

Hitter Streamers for 9/2 - Infielders

Brandon Belt (1B, SFG, LHB) - 31% Rostered

Matchup: @ COL LHP Kyle Freeland

Belt has .337/.424/.528 slash line with a 1.052 OPS through 29 games. Those numbers don't look like they should be associated with a streamer, rather more like a full-time starter. His statcast numbers back up his offensive outburst, as he has the 93rd percentile or better in hard-hit rate, barrel%, xSLG, and xwOBA. Belt also has a very favorable matchup in the hitter-friendly confines of Coors Field. Grab him now while he is still under 40% owned.

Brad Miller (2B/3B/OF, STL, LHB) - 21% Rostered

Matchup: @ CIN RHP Tyler Mahle

Brad Miller is having a late-career resurgence in 2020. He has been a nightmare for any right-handed pitcher; in 74 plate appearances, he has nine extra-base hits and a 13:13 K/BB ratio. Miller is fresh off a white-hot night as he went yard twice, collected seven more RBI, and was a triple shy of the cycle. The second base position has been a spot of weakness for many fantasy owners, and Miller is producing at a high level these days.

Austin Riley (3B/OF, ATL, RHB) - 34% Rostered

Advertising

Matchup: @ BOS LHP Mike Kickam

Austin Riley started ice cold but is currently tearing the cover off the ball. In the last seven days, Riley has ten hits, two home runs, eight RBI, with a .370 batting average. What's changed for Riley? He is finally starting to hit right-handed pitchers. In 2019, he struggled by only hitting .215 in 209 at-bats with a 10:1 K/BB ratio. So far, in 2020, Riley is batting .284 with a 3:1 K/BB ratio in 81 at-bats. Austin is looking to finish off the series against Boston with a bang tonight, so plug him in the lineups while you can.

 

Mike Brosseau (1B/2B/3B/OF - TB, RHB) - 2% Rostered

Matchup: @ NYY LHP Jordan Montgomery

Mike Brosseau gets the start when a southpaw is opposing the Rays. His splits are why the ownership is so low; he does not get the number of quality opportunities as many other outfielder options. When facing a left-handed pitcher in 2020, Brosseau is mashing .344/.371/.750 with a 1.121 OPS. He has a .406 ISO and 194 wRC+ as well. Those are wow numbers if you ask me.

Garrett Cooper (1B/OF - MIA, RHB) - 3% Rostered

Matchup: vs. TOR LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu

Garrett Cooper is severely under-owned in the majority of leagues right now. This is mainly due to his lengthy start stint on the IL. Cooper came back and was immediately thrust into the middle of the Marlins lineup because of his abilities at the dish. In only five games, he already has two home runs and six RBI with a .318 batting average. There is no better time than now to catch your league mates sleeping on this one.

Hitter Streamers for 9/2 - Outfielders

Alex Dickerson (OF - SFG, LHB) - 4% Rostered

Matchup: @ COL LHP Kyle Freeland

Advertising

Alex Dickerson is coming off a night to remember, and I hope he left some in the tank for tonight's outing. Last night Dickerson had five extra-base hits, including three home runs and six RBI. The night before that, he went 2-for-4 with a home run as well. Any player on this type of heater makes a terrific streamer. Dickerson will look to cap off his series in Colorado with another moonshot. Play him while he is on fire.

Victor Reyes (OF, DET, SHB) - 8% Rostered

Matchup: vs. MIL RHP Adrian Houser

Victor Reyes has shown up in my Wednesday streamers article a few times now. I will keep repeating it; this man needs to be put on your teams. In 109 at-bats, he is hitting .309 with 20 runs, 11 RBI, three home runs, and five stolen bases. Reyes is a jack of all trades that can do it all. He has firmly won the leadoff spot in the better-than-expected Tigers lineup and continues to produce. Don't miss out any longer, and find a place for Victor Reyes.

Ryan Mountcastle (OF/SS - BAL, RHB) - 30% Rostered

Matchup: vs. NYM RHP Michael Wacha

Ryan Mountcastle was called up to add a little offensive boost to the Baltimore Orioles. In his short stint, Ryan has done just that by going batting .324 with a pair of home runs and five RBI. Now that Mountcastle has carved out an everyday role in the back third of the lineup, he is looking comfortable at the plate and putting up numbers on a nightly basis. He draws a favorable matchup against Michael Wacha, who can't seem to put it together. In his first four starts this season, Wacha has failed to get past the fifth inning and keeps getting drilled by right-handed hitters.

 

Pitcher Streamers for 9/2

Spencer Turnbull (RHP, DET)

@ MIL - 38% Rostered

For a minute, I thought my eyes were deceiving me with Turnbull being rostered in under 40% of leagues. He has a 2.97 ERA, and 26 strikeouts in 30.1 innings pitched. Starting pitching has been one of the most difficult positions to find this year, and Turnbull is much better than the league average. What makes him successful is his slider+fastball combination. The slider produces a 52.5 Whiff%, and the fastball has a .149 batting average against. Turnbull should rack up plenty of strikeouts against the Brewers tonight. They have a 27.5 K% and near the bottom of the MLB in wRC+ and wOBA all season.
