Fantasy Baseball Streamers - MLB Hitter, Pitcher Lineup Picks for Saturday 6/26

Baseball is back, and fantasy managers in daily leagues already have holes to fill with streamers. Fortunately, RotoBaller has you covered with daily fantasy baseball streaming picks.

Each day, RotoBaller will provide you with some of the best streaming options to consider in fantasy baseball daily leagues. Additionally, these recommendations can be useful for fantasy managers setting MLB DFS lineups. 

We've got a full 16-game slate on tap as each MLB team will be in action on the last Saturday in June. As with any large-slate, there are quite a few streamable players for fantasy leagues of any size. This article will use rostered percentages and position eligibility from Yahoo! leagues.

Hitter Streamers for 6/26 - Shallow Leagues

Dominic Smith (1B/OF, NYM) - 50% rostered

Matchup: vs. RHP Zach Eflin

Phillies starter Zach Eflin has given up nine runs in his last 10 innings and has a 4.39 ERA on the season overall. His strikeout rate is down five percent from last season and he's allowing a ton of line drives as his 25 percent LD% is in the bottom 10 percent in baseball. Smith has pedestrian stats so far, but he's making hard contact at a 40 percent rate and has a 25.5 percent line-drive rate. He's got a good chance of getting ahold of a pitch in this matchup versus Eflin.

Adam Duvall (OF, MIA) - 52% rostered      

Matchup: @ LHP Patrick Corbin

Duvall was the cover boy on this piece yesterday and he delivered a RBI and two runs scored. If you missed out yesterday, good news! We can go right back to Duvall Saturday versus Patrick Corbin. Duvall has been a RBI machine batting behind Jazz Chisholm and Starling Marte and he'll have the platoon advantage versus the lefty Corbin.

Jonathan India (2B/3B, CIN) - 47% rostered      

Matchup: @ RHP Ian Anderson

Since being moved into the leadoff slot on June 5, India is batting .290 with an excellent .417 OBP. He's got two homers and two steals while scoring 15 runs in 18 games batting above the big bats in the Cincinnati lineup. He's a patient hitter as he's got a 12.6 percent walk rate and ranks in the 91st percentile in sprint speed. Anderson is a good pitcher, but not one to fade with a hot hitter, especially in the friendly confines of Great American Ballpark.

Hitter Streamers for 6/26 - Deeper Leagues

Akil Baddoo (OF, DET) - 16% rostered      

Matchup: @ RHP Framber Valdez and RHP Lance McCullers

After a rainout on Friday, the Tigers and Astros will play two on Saturday. That's as good of an excuse as any to start Baddoo, who has been on fire lately. The rookie is riding a 10-game hit streak during which he's slashing .462/.563/.654. He can rack up fantasy points on the basepaths as well as he's got eight stolen bases and he's been back in the leadoff role for Detroit. We've seen the rookie get hot before, and he'll surely cool down from this stretch eventually. For now, I want Baddoo in my lineup for the twin-bill.

Bobby Bradley (1B, CLE) - 17% rostered      

Matchup: @ RHP Kenta Maeda

Yes, Kenta Maeda looked good last time out in his first start back from the IL. No, that doesn't mean we should dub him "back" quite yet. Maeda is a pitcher we shouldn't be afraid to attack and Bradley is a power bat to do that with. Bradley is slugging over .600 through 17 games and homered again on Friday night. He's already displayed his elite power with a 114.2 MPH homer and will have the platoon advantage versus the righty Maeda.

Tony Kemp (2B/OF, OAK) - 15% rostered

Matchup: at LHP Alex Wood

Another repeat from Friday but another player that should be rostered in more fantasy leagues. Kemp is riding a 14-game on-base streak and batted leadoff on Friday in the absence of Mark Canha (hip) who landed on the IL. Kemp has more walks than strikeouts this season which has helped him put up an excellent .381 wOBA. He hits lefties almost as well as righties (.289 BA vs LHP and .293 BA vs RHP) so we don't need to worry about the L/L matchup versus Alex Wood. Pick up Kemp and ride this hot streak while it lasts.

Pitcher Streamers for 6/26 - Shallow Leagues

JT Brubaker (SP, PIT) - 33% rostered      

Matchup: at STL Adam Wainwright

There hasn't been a lot to cheer about in Pirate-land, but Brubaker has largely Buc'd that trend. The casual fan won't be impressed by his 4-6 record or 3.77 ERA, but Brubaker's numbers are largely skewed by back-to-back bad starts in mid-May where he gave up 12 total runs. Aside from that slump, the 27-year-old has been excellent and should be the leading candidate to rep the Bucs at the All-Star Game. From a fantasy perspective, Brubaker is doing all the things you want to see from a pitcher to continue having success.

He averages just over a strikeout-per-inning while sporting an excellent five percent walk rate. Half the batted balls against him have been grounders and he's just a tick under the magical 30 percent CSW (called-plus-swinging strikes) rate that we like to see from pitchers. Toss in a matchup against the Cardinals who rank 27th in wOBA versus RHP, and Brubaker is a start-worthy streamer in all leagues.

Pitcher Streamers for 6/26 - Deeper Leagues

Adrian Houser (SP, MIL) - 13% rostered

Matchup: vs COL Antonio Senzatela

Fantasy managers seeking a quality starter in a good matchup should look no further than Houser facing the Rockies. Colorado's .572 road OPS is easily the worst mark in the Majors and their .294 wOBA versus RHP ranks 24th. Part of the Rockies' issue is a 45.8% ground ball rate (8th highest) which plays right into the hands of Houser and his elite sinker. Houser throws the sinker over 50 percent of the time and the pitch already has a whopping -10 run differential halfway through the season while helping the 28-year-old righty lead the Majors with a 60 percent ground ball rate. It's a bad day to be a worm on the Miller Park infield.
