Streaming pitchers isn't for the faint of heart, but if you find yourself without enough reliable options in a given scoring period, it may be what you need to stay afloat. Scott White has 10 recommendations for the upcoming scoring period, all rostered in less than 80 percent of CBS Sports leagues. Generally, only the top two or three are full-throated endorsements, while the rest are more about making the best of a bad situation.
Be sure to check back Sunday for the latest updates.
Sleeper pitchers for Week 12 (June 8-14)
Andrew Abbott SP CIN Cincinnati • #41 • Age: 27 Matchups at SD, vs. ARI Rostered 78% Andrew Abbott has seemingly gotten back on track with a 2.25 ERA in his past seven starts, though his 4.67 FIP during that same stretch reveals how underwhelming his walks and strikeouts have been. Still, he's facing the league's worst offense (Padres) in a two-start week, so you can't expect to do much better off the waiver wire. 
Shane Baz SP BAL Baltimore • #34 • Age: 26 Matchup vs. SD Rostered 75% Shane Baz has changed his pitch mix against right-handers recently and gotten better results, taking a four-start quality start streak into his matchup at the Blue Jays over the weekend. Provided he pulls through in that one, he'll make for an obvious choice to stream against the Padres' 30th-ranked offense. 
Gage Jump SP ATH Athletics • #79 • Age: 23 Matchup vs. COL Rostered 40% Gage Jump has excelled in different ways in his first two starts, once in terms of process and once in terms of results. Whether or not he combines them in his third start against the Astros over the weekend, I've seen enough to recommend him against the Rockies, who remain a favorable matchup on the road. 
Seth Lugo SP KC Kansas City • #67 • Age: 36 Matchup vs. TEX Rostered 76% Seth Lugo obviously isn't the pitcher he was two years ago, but he's been a quality start machine with eight already this year. He makes for a prime play whenever he has a favorable matchup, which the Rangers have been this year, though I should note that they're getting Wyatt Langford and Corey Seager back this weekend. 
Dustin May SP STL St. Louis • #3 • Age: 28 Matchups at NYM, at MIN Rostered 49% Speaking of quality start machines, Dustin May has seven in his 12 turns this season. He also has a 3.19 ERA in his past 10 outings, and while there's not much to recommend him beyond that, it's enough when he's in line for two starts with a weak two-start slate. 
Tanner Bibee SP CLE Cleveland • #28 • Age: 27 Matchup vs. DET Rostered 75% Yet another pitcher whose lack of upside doesn't prevent him from churning out quality starts at a high rate, Tanner Bibee will be facing a Tigers lineup in Week 12 that contributed to his best start of the year back on May 20, when he allowed one run in eight innings. 
Grant Holmes SP ATL Atlanta • #66 • Age: 30 Matchups at CHW, at NYM Rostered 58% Grant Holmes has had efficiency issues that have elevated his WHIP and kept his outings on the shorter side, but he gets two chances at a win this week, including one against a Mets lineup that ranks in the bottom third of the league. 
Foster Griffin SP WAS Washington • #22 • Age: 30 Matchup at SF Rostered 76% Foster Griffin has come back down to earth a bit in recent turns, but his overall ratios are still solid. He has an obvious vulnerability to the long ball, but that's less of an issue against the Giants, particularly in San Francisco. 
Jack Leiter SP TEX Texas • #22 • Age: 26 Matchup at BOS Rostered 78% Jack Leiter can be his own worst enemy at times and has been particularly shaky on the mound lately, but he remains a solid bat-misser capable of exploiting the right matchups. He has such a matchup this week against the Red Sox, who rank third-to-last in runs scored. 
Walker Buehler SP SD San Diego • #10 • Age: 31 Matchups vs. SEA, vs. SD Rostered 16% I'll be honest: I see no way Walker Buehler sustains anywhere close to the 3.29 ERA he has in his past five starts. But he's a hot hand that lines up for two favorable matchups, which is sometimes the best you can do off the waiver wire if you're insistent on playing it.
