​Jerad Eickhoff, Philadelphia Phillies

Start: April 26th vs. Miami Marlins
ESPN ownership: 9%

The demotion of a struggling Nick Pivetta has reintroduced Jerad Eickhoff to the Philadelphia Phillies rotation, where Eickhoff was once a mainstay until a nerve injury in his throwing hand robbed him of virtually all of his 2018 campaign.

Eickhoff's prospects for fantasy relevance largely rest on his low-key excellent 2016 season, when he posted 197.1 innings of 3.65-ERA ball with 20 quality starts. The 28-year-old righty was back at it on Sunday, posting six solid innings of four-run ball in the pitcher-hostile environment of Coors Field. A far less intimidating matchup with a soft Marlins offense puts Eickhoff firmly on the streaming map for Week 4.
