The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss Mat Latos’ inevitable regression, Logan Morrison’s ice-cold start, remembering when Tommy Milone was a useful streamer, a random Kevin Pillar fun fact, trying to make sense of Ian Kennedy, Robin Ventura’s interview skills, Dylan giving Matt a reverse Sophie’s Choice, and failing to really pay attention to other sports.

Contest picks for Wednesday, April 20: Nate Eovaldi vs. OAK (Dylan) and Drew Pomeranz vs. PIT (Matt).

Suggested DFS picks worth attention for Wednesday, April 20: Brian McCann, Stephen Vogt, Yasmani Grandal, Derek Norris, Matt Wieters, Hank Conger, Chris Davis, Edwin Encarnacion, Mark Teixeira, Lucas Duda, Prince Fielder, Mitch Moreland, Chris Carter, Jonathan Schoop, Neil Walker, Dee Gordon, Rougned Odor, Jose Altuve, Manny Machado, Josh Donaldson, Maikel Franco, Anthony Rendon, Brad Miller, Corey Seager, Carlos Correa, Jonathan Villar, Asdrubal Cabrera, Kevin Pillar, the Yankees outfield, Josh Reddick, Corey Dickerson, Christian Yelich, George Springer, Ryan Braun, Domingo Santana, Matt Kemp, Wil Myers, Melvin Upton, Andrew McCutchen, the Mets outfielders, Ian Kennedy, Chris Archer, Joe Ross, Jimmy Nelson, Zach Greinke, Madison Bumgarner, Drew Pomeranz, Ross Stripling, and Danny Salazar.
