Pitchers to Stream Sunday

Luis Gil (NYY): Despite control issues, Gil has limited damage with only one home run allowed this month. Facing the White Sox, who have a low walk rate, could mitigate his walk concerns.

Brady Singer (KC): Singer has been on a roll with a 1.80 ERA and 0.94 WHIP over his last six starts. He faces the Cardinals, who have a high strikeout rate against righties.

Sandy Alcantara (MIA): Alcantara has a 3.07 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over his last seven starts. He faces the Mets, a tough matchup, but his ability to pitch deep into games is valuable.

Pitcher to Avoid Sunday

Hurston Waldrep (ATL): Despite a strong start, Waldrep has yet to face a top-10 offense. Facing the Phillies could expose him, making him a risky choice.

Hitters to Stream Sunday

Brad Lord (WSH): Lord has struggled with a 5.47 ERA and 1.56 WHIP in August. Facing the Rays, who are in a rut, could provide a favorable matchup for hitters like Brandon Lowe and Josh Lowe.
