Fantasy Baseball: 5 Pitchers to Stream for Week 20

Dinelson Lamet's results haven't yet lived up to the promise of his velocity, but with two home starts on tap for Week 20, the Padres' righty makes for an interesting high-upside streamer.

If you regularly read numberFire and avidly play fantasy baseball, it's fair to assume that you care, to some extent, about numbers. And so you probably understand that while 20 feels like a milestone of sorts, there is nothing about "20-ness" that is especially noteworthy.

It's a nice, round number, sure. But for our purposes, Week 20 for fantasy baseball streaming will prove to be a profoundly typical week, as many of the matchups suggested here will key in on flailing offenses that have been making the lives of starter-needy fantasy owners that much easier over the course of the season. You've got your San Francisco Giants, your San Diego Padres, your Philadelphia Phillies -- the usual suspects, as it were.

You are, of course, free to celebrate Week 20 however you see fit. Even better, these five widely available starters might very well make this nice, round week a milestone period for your fantasy team.
