June 10 Fantasy Baseball Streaming Pitchers: Kyle Harrison, Lance McCullers and More

It's time again for starting pitcher fantasy streamers. Let's look at four starting pitchers in action on Tuesday who are widely available in fantasy leagues and have good matchups. 

Most stats are from MLB.com, as are the probable pitchers. The full streamer rankings are listed at the bottom.

Sawyer Gipson-Long, Detroit Tigers @ Baltimore Orioles

In our weekly expert picks, I talked about Baltimore shortstop Gunnar Henderson and catcher Adley Rutschman as players who could be good buy-low candidates after slow starts to the season. They were both drafted among the top three at their position, so getting them for just a modest return could be a big upside play. That being said, the team has struggled hard so far this season, so even an uptick might leave them at a lower level.

Gipson-Long has only thrown 23 2/3 big league innings, allowing nine earned runs with nine walks and 29 strikeouts. He did high-level strikeout work in the minor leagues also, so there's a good chance he could keep excelling in that area, something that would give him a nice ceiling every time he takes the mound. For now, we don't have a lot to go on; Gipson-Long is an intriguing pitcher.

Gipson-Long is a mid-level streamer. The matchup is a really good one, and he has shown good strikeout work, something that raises both his ceiling and floor. It doesn't hurt that he's pitching for one of the best teams in baseball.

Kyle Harrison, San Francisco Giants @ Colorado Rockies

I've become emboldened by how bad Colorado really is: I used to always avoid targeting their hitters when playing at Coors Field, but it's gotten to the point that I'm no longer scared of the most hitter-friendly park in baseball. Congratulations, Rockies fans. The team is a bottom-10 unit at home and a bottom-five offense on the road. Best of all, they strike out as much as any other team.

Harrison is a little better than average with both walks and strikeouts, a good path toward fantasy (and real-life) success for any pitcher. He has gotten hit a little bit, allowing 171 hits in 177 2/3 innings, but Harrison has looked good in his initial big league action. He's also only 23 years old, so there could be more here.

Harrison is a mid-level streamer. He's been very good at times but never great, and the game taking place in Colorado rather than San Francisco does knock him down half a notch.

Lance McCullers Jr., Houston Astros vs. Chicago White Sox

McCullers picked up his first victory since 2022 last Tuesday against the Pirates, pitching six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts, one walk, and just two hits allowed. He'll never be the player he was in his prime, especially after so much missed time, but there is a former high-level pitcher in there who can show up from time to time.

The White Sox offer another great matchup for the veteran pitcher, as they are a bottom-five offensive team in essentially every box stat, a major part of their AL-worst record (22-44). McCullers made his first start of the season against Chicago, allowing no runs but only going 3 2/3 innings with three hits allowed, three walks, and four strikeouts. He has looked good against the worst offenses.

McCullers is a mid-level streamer. I have a hard time projecting him to reach the highest highs after missing over two full seasons, but we've seen that he can find some of that old magic at times, and the great matchup is the perfect time to trust him.

Mitch Spence, Athletics @ Los Angeles Angels

The Angels had a better stretch offensively last month, which moved them off the target list and made them look like they could contend for the division. They have taken a step backward to what was more expected, though, and they are back among the fantasy targets. LA ranks in the bottom 10 (or really close to it) in runs, hits, doubles, walks, batting average, on-base percentage, and OPS. They are also right near the top of the league in batter strikeouts with the Rockies, giving opponents a high ceiling.

Spence is just a hair worse than average with strikeouts and a little better than average with walks in around 200 career innings. He has been a little worse than average overall, fitting into a huge group of pitchers who show up on our streamer list on the right days. Spence is worth consideration.

Spence is a low- to mid-level streamer today. His lower strikeout rate brings him down just a little, and the Angels do mash home runs, even as they fall short elsewhere.
