Fantasy Baseball: 5 Pitchers To Stream For Week 5
Wei-Yen Chen, Miami Marlins
Starts: May 1st vs. Tampa Bay Rays, May 6th at New York Mets
Wei-Yin Chen makes the second of what will likely be many appearances here, as the perennially under-owned lefty faces off against a Rays team that leads the majors in strikeout rate against southpaws while generating a lot of soft contact.
A weekend series at Citi Field will find Chen toeing the rubber against a Mets squad that does boast a strong team-wide OPS against lefties on the young season. It's also a team that will still be reeling from an injury to one of their primary lefty killers. Look for Chen to get a leg up on the depleted Mets with his strong changeup, a pitch that has seen a major jump in swinging-strike rate for Chen and against which the Mets have struggled so far in 2017.
