It's a full slate with pitching options galore no matter how you want to attack the position today. .

In this article, I’ll be providing you with the top starting pitcher streamers for daily fantasy baseball (DFS) and for seasonal leagues for 4/19/16. These streamers will range from high-priced / high-ownership options to low-priced / low-ownership options, and will be sleepers and value picks for your cash games and GPPs on DraftKings and FanDuel, and also for seasonal leagues with daily lineups.

There'll be three main sections of this article: our Pitcher Matchups Tool’s top plays, my value plays, and pitchers to fade. I highly recommend you check out the Daily Pitcher Matchups Ratings tool - it's an extremely useful tool for daily fantasy or seasonal streaming for finding the diamonds in the rough. Anyways, let's get cracking!

Daily Pitcher Matchup Ratings Tool Top Plays

Stephen Strasburg (WAS) @ MIA

FanDuel - $11,300 / DraftKings - $11,000

Strasburg gets the top rated matchup of the day and is also the highest priced pitcher on the slate. He will pitch in a pitcher-friendly park in Miami and take on an average Marlins lineup. With his strikeout upside, Strasburg needs to be seriously considered for cash game lineups.

Carlos Carrasco (CLE) vs. SEA

FanDuel - $10,200 / DraftKings $10,200

Carrasco gets the second-best matchup on the slate according to the matchup tool. He is coming off an excellent outing where he held the Royals to one run over eight innings, striking out eight. The Mariners have the ninth-highest strikeout rate in the league against right-handed pitchers at 23.2%. Carrasco is quickly solidifying himself as an ace and should be treated as such in fantasy.

Matt’s Value Plays of the Day

Matt Shoemaker (LAA) @ CWS

FanDuel - $8,400 / DraftKings - $5,300

There's an interesting pricing discrepancy between the two daily sites here, making Shoemaker an excellent value on DK while he's best avoided on FD for today's slate. Shoemaker will face off against a White Sox offense that has been ice cold and the right-hander is coming off a fantastic start where he held the A's scoreless over six innings.

Ervin Santana (MIN) vs. MIL

FanDuel - $6,900 / DraftKings - $8,000

Santana has been excellent to begin the year, posting a 1.75 ERA and 16 strikeouts in 15 innings of work. He should be able to improve upon those strikeout numbers against a Brewers team that has the sixth-highest strikeout rate in the league when facing right-handed pitching.

Starting Pitchers to Fade in Daily Fantasy Baseball

Vince Velasquez (PHI) vs. NYM

FanDuel - $9,000 / DraftKings $9,600

Velasquez's price sky-rocketed after he dominated the Padres in his last start and he's sure to be a popular play today. He will be facing the Mets for a second time this season, this time in hitter-friendly Citizens Bank Park. The Mets have started to heat up at the plate, touching up Corey Kluber for six runs on Sunday.

Jason Hammel (CHC) @ STL

FanDuel - $8,000 / DraftKings - $7,800

Hammel will take on a Cardinals offense that is dangerous against right-handed pitching. He has just nine strikeouts in 12 innings of work this season and St. Louis is one of the toughest teams for right-handed pitchers to strike out. There just isn't a whole lot of upside in using Hammel today.
