Some pitchers worth streaming into your lineup during the weekend:
SATURDAY:
Erik Bedard (BOS v. OAK) – Hurricane Irene could wash this game out, but I liked him in Texas earlier this week so at home against Oakland is a no-brainer.
Ross Detwiler (WAS @ CIN) – Consider this one more for the risky types. He’s been great so far this year and I really like him, but he is going into Cincinnati so if you’re protecting ERA and WHIP, then pass. However, if you’re desperate and don’t mind a solid gamble, then proceed.
SUNDAY:
Bud Norris (HOU @ SF) – Strikeout pitcher gets the Giants in AT&T Park, auto-start.
Cory Luebke (SD @ ARI) – His ownership rates have finally ticked up, but snap him up anywhere he is available. I won’t count this on the overall results because his ownership is pretty high, but not high enough in my opinion.
