Hitter Streamers for 7/19 - Shallow Leagues
Jesus Aguilar (1B, RHB, MIA) - 66% Rostered
Matchup: at WAS LHP Jon Lester
Aguilar is slashing .273/.334/.487 with 17 home runs and 68 RBI this season. He's homered three times in his last five games and he'll have a good opportunity to keep it going against Lester, who has given up 18 runs (10 earned) in his last three starts, spanning 13.1 innings. Aguilar has been a fixture in the three or four spot for the Marlins, so he's in a prime position for run production in an exploitable matchup.
Max Kepler (OF, LHB, MIN) - 47% Rostered
Matchup: at CHW (double-header) N/A
We're not sure who will be taking the mound for the White Sox yet - it could be Lance Lynn and Dallas Keuchel - but Kepler is in a great spot since it's a double-header. He's gone 10-for-36 (.278) with seven runs, four homers, and eight RBI in his last 11 games. We can't pass him up even in a projected matchup against Lynn. This is a volume play with some power upside.
Robbie Grossman (OF, SHB, DET) - 37% Rostered
Matchup: vs. TEX RHP Kyle Gibson
Grossman is starting to come alive of late, going 7-for-28 (.250) with six runs, three homers, seven RBI, and one stolen base in his last nine games. He has a tough matchup against Gibson, who has put up a 2.29 ERA and 1.07 WHIP in 102 innings this season, but we've seen how Gibson has struggled with inconsistency in the past. He's also coming off a poor outing where he gave up five runs in 6.1 innings against these Tigers. Grossman is a staple atop the Tigers order, so he's in a good spot.
Hitter Streamers for 7/19 - Deeper Leagues
Jed Lowrie (2B, SHB, OAK) - 27% Rostered
Matchup: vs. LAA RHP Shohei Ohtani
Lowrie has been absolutely on fire lately, going 18-for-44 (.409) with six runs, four homers, and 11 RBI in his last 12 games. He's hit primarily in the four or five hole during this stretch, so we still have to ride the wave, even in a tough matchup against Ohtani. Lowrie has been a streaky hitter throughout his career, so it's a good idea to get on-board while he's still hot.
Adam Engel (OF, RHB, CHW) - 2% Rostered
Matchup: vs. MIN (double-header) N/A
This is another volume play in a double-header. It's likely that the Twins go with Griffin Jax and Jose Berrios, but it's not confirmed yet. Engel has been swinging the bat well of late, going 14-for-44 (.318) with 10 runs, five homers, 12 RBI, and one stolen base in his last 12 games (going back to June, as he missed some time). We can't pass up this kind of power with a double-header on tap.
Wilmer Difo (3B/SS/OF, SHB, PIT) - 2% Rostered
Matchup: at ARI LHP Caleb Smith
Difo is another hot hitter who is widely available throughout fantasy leagues. He's gone 9-for-15 (.600) with five runs, two homers, and five RBI during his current five-game hitting streak. Difo has a good chance to keep it going against Smith, who is coming off a horrendous outing against the Dodgers, where he was chased in the first inning for nine runs on six hits, including three homers.
Pitcher Streamers for 7/19 - Shallow Leagues
Casey Mize (RHP, DET) - 48% Rostered
Matchup: vs. TEX
Mize has found his groove, as he's allowed three runs or less in 13 consecutive starts. He's in a great spot to keep it going here in his second consecutive outing against the Rangers. The Rangers bats have been ice-cold lately, scoring 10 runs in their last six games, including back-to-back shutouts in Sunday's double-header against the Blue Jays. Fire up Mize in this exploitable matchup.
Pitcher Streamers for 7/19 - Deeper Leagues
Kyle Muller (LHP, ATL) - 17% Rostered
Matchup: vs. SD
Muller has a tough matchup against a stacked Padres lineup, but the young lefty has looked sharp so far this season, with 19 strikeouts in 14.2 innings in his three starts. While there's risk here given the tough matchup and shaky control (eight walks in three starts), there's also high strikeout upside. Muller is worth a dice roll here, especially in DFS tournaments.
