J.T. Ginn makes his first start since his near no-hitter for the Athletics, who lead the AL West partly due to his contributions. Despite a modest 2-2 record, the team has won six of his eight starts. Ginn carries a 1.67 ERA on the road and will face the Padres at Petco Park, where San Diego has the fifth-lowest wOBA against right-handers.

Stephen Kolek offers streaming value with two quality starts in three outings, featuring a ground ball rate over 50%. He faces Seattle's Mariners, who have the sixth-highest strikeout rate against right-handers. Colin Rea presents matchup potential against a depleted Astros lineup missing Altuve, Diaz, and Correa, with wind blowing in at Wrigley Field.

White Sox hitters Miguel Vargas, Colson Montgomery, Andrew Benintendi and Jarred Kelenic benefit from favorable conditions at Oracle Park, with wind blowing out and facing Giants pitcher Adrian Houser. The Giants' park factors combined with Houser's tendency to give up long balls make this an attractive streaming spot for the visiting White Sox offense.
