Pitchers to Stream on Thursday Baltimore Orioles RHP Dean Kremer is just above the threshold for his road start against the Minnesota Twins. However, the Twins' offense has been below average against right-handed pitching, but they have recently returned some key players. Tampa Bay RHP Ryan Pepiot is in a similar situation, facing a Philadelphia Phillies lineup that has a below-average home run rate but still poses a threat. Boston Red Sox RHP Brayan Bello is a prime example where upside could make him a streaming option.
Pitchers to Avoid on Thursday Kansas City Royals LHP Kris Bubic's projection is slightly below the threshold, but he's showing improvement. On the other hand, RHP Brandon Pfaadt should be avoided due to a dangerous home matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
