Pitchers to Stream on Friday

• Jonah Tong (R) vs TEX: After an impressive MLB debut, Tong faces the Rangers at home. Citi Field is a favorable pitching venue, and the Rangers are missing key hitters.

• Brady Singer (R) vs OAK: Singer has been excellent in the second half, with a 2.11 ERA and 0.98 WHIP over his last eight starts. He should handle the Athletics well.

Pitchers to Avoid on Friday

• Hurston Waldrep (R) vs HOU: Waldrep has struggled with control recently, walking nine in his last 10.2 innings. The Astros' lineup could take advantage of his issues.
