Fantasy Baseball: 4 Pitchers to Stream for Week 14
The lack of strikeout upside has kept standard leaguers from embracing Jose Urena, but that should change this week with the Miami righty boasting nice matchups in Week 14.

Hyun-jin Ryu, Los Angeles Dodgers

Starts: July 4th vs. Arizona Diamondbacks, July 9th vs. Kansas City Royals
ESPN ownership: 8 percent

The Los Angeles Dodgers' perennial rotation tinkering has Hyun-jin Ryu highlighting the back end of our streamers list for the second straight week. Ryu's been in solid form of late, whittling down his hard contact in each of his last three starts while boasting a 19% strikeout-minus-walk rate over that span.

And while the D-backs seem like a tough assignment on paper, bear in mind that Arizona shows some pretty stark home/road splits -- they're actually a bottom-five offense on the road, with their normally impressive power production decidedly muted away from Chase Field. Arizona also happens to be among the league's the least productive offenses against lefties on the season at large.

Meanwhile, the Royals' recent success against southpaws might have owners in weekly-lock settings second guessing a Ryu stream, but bear in mind that Kansas City has been pretty useless against the curveball all season, which should play into Ryu's hand.
