Episode 52 – Streaks Where He’s Mortal

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

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Brad Johnson discuss the embarrassment of riches when it comes to options on Tuesday, responding to a question on Twitter about weather forecasting for DFS, a look at Matt Harvey’s recent struggles, hesitation when picking a pitcher opposite another strong pitcher, Carlos Correa establishing himself as a notable righty bat in the righty-heavy Astros lineup, Dee Gordon and Nate Eovaldi’s uninteresting potential link, and looking closer at Chi Chi Gonzalez.

Contest picks for Tuesday, June 16: Charlie Morton vs. CWS (Dylan) and Scott Copeland @ NYM (Matt).

Contest picks for Wednesday, June 17: Chase Anderson vs. LAA (Dylan) and Drew Hutchison vs. NYM (Matt).
