It's another manic Monday, so you know what time it is - it's time to dig deep and find some streamers. Today is a tough day for pitcher streamers, so we'll roll the dice on a formerly hyped Pirates' prospect.
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 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 two starting pitchers. Let’s take a look at the Monday slate and dig out some streamer gems to help you start off the week with a bang!

Hitter Streamers for 9/14 - Infielders
Brian Anderson (3B/OF, MIA) vs. PHI - 26% Rostered
Anderson is swinging a hot bat lately, going 12-for-24 (.500) with four runs, one homer, and six RBI in his last six games. It's not yet known who will be starting for the Phillies tomorrow, but Anderson's been hitting well enough to warrant a stream regardless of who's on the mound.
Alec Bohm (3B, PHI) @ MIA - 24% Rostered
The Phillies' rookie slugger continues to impress, slashing .330/.381/.500 with three home runs and 19 RBI on the season. Bohm is hitting the ball hard, posting 88th percentile exit velocity and 92nd percentile hard-hit rate. He was also bumped to the cleanup spot in this lineup, so he's in a prime position for production.
Ty France (2B/3B, SEA) vs. OAK - 10% Rostered
France has been hitting well since being traded to Seattle, slashing .367/.447/.667 as a Mariner. He's also batting in the two-hole, so he has a chance to put up some counting stats. France has a double-header tomorrow, which makes him even more of an appealing streamer.
Miguel Rojas (SS, MIA) vs. PHI - 7% Rostered
Rojas has had a rock-solid year, slashing .359/.438/.551 with two home runs, 16 RBI, and three stolen bases. He's hit safely in seven of his last eight games, so it's pretty surprising that his rostered percentage remains so low. Rojas makes for a nice pairing with Anderson to help build a Marlins stack.
Hitter Streamers for 9/14 - Outfielders
Shogo Akiyama (OF, CIN) vs. PIT - 20% Rostered
Akiyama has turned it on of late, going 8-for-22 (.364) with three runs, two RBI, and two stolen bases in his last six games. He's hit in the leadoff spot in three consecutive games, so he's in a great situation. Akiyama also has a doubleheader tomorrow, which makes him a must-stream.
Corey Dickerson (OF, MIA) vs. PHI - 13% Rostered
Dickerson completes our Marlins stack as another hot-hitter who has gone 12-for-41 (.293) with eight runs, two homers, and four RBI in his last nine games. He's also hit in the leadoff spot for six consecutive games, which makes him the ideal choice to pair with Rojas and Anderson.
Nick Markakis (OF, ATL) @ BAL - 6% Rostered
Markakis has a great matchup at Camden Yards against RHP Jorge Lopez, who ranks in the eighth-percentile in exit velocity allowed and 15th-percentile for hard-hit rate. Markakis should be able to get things going facing a struggling pitcher in the bandbox that is Camden Yards.
Pitcher Streamer for 9/14
Mitch Keller (RHP, PIT) @ CIN - 31% Rostered
Tomorrow looks like one of the more challenging days to stream a pitcher, so we're forced to go with Keller, who is making his first start since returning from an oblique injury. While it's likely that the Pirates will have Keller on a pitch count to ease him back in, he's the best option on a weak slate due to his prospect pedigree and impressive stuff. Keller was struggling prior to his injury, but perhaps the long layoff allowed him to get things going.
