Week 5 of the fantasy baseball season is set to get underway! The season keeps rolling along and I hope you are dominating your fantasy baseball league.

Today, we are going to be discussing the best Week 5 starting pitching options. This list will include the best two-start pitching options as well as some good one-start choices as well.

As always, you never want to drop a valuable piece of your roster just to add a streamer. But if you have the open spot or you find that a player on your team is indeed droppable, streaming pitchers can be a major key to success in fantasy baseball.

Each pitcher we discuss will be 50% rostered or less according to ESPN. Without further ado, here are the top Week 5 fantasy baseball pitcher streamers!

Week 5 Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Streamers

Two-Start Options

Jameson Taillon, NYY, 22.2% Rostered

Matchups: vs TOR, @CHW

Do we actually want to roll with Jameson Taillon against the Blue Jays and White Sox? For streaming purposes, yes.

First off, there is the fact that Taillon has always featured high potential and could finally be developing into a quality pitcher as evidenced by his 2.84 season ERA. Taillon also just faced the Blue Jays and spun 6 innings of 1-run baseball.

As good as the Blue Jays' lineup is, they have a lot of big swingers who are going to produce some 0-4's throughout the season. And the White Sox are currently decimated by injuries and underperformance throughout their lineup.

So Jameson Taillon is going to be the guy that everybody else in your league will be too afraid to pick up, but you are going to have the upper hand on all of them.

Austin Gomber, COL, 5.6% Rostered

Matchups: @SF, vs KC

It wasn't long ago that people were laughing at the Rockies for trading Nolan Arenado for Austin Gomber and four other unheralded prospects from the Cardinals. But now… well, they are probably still laughing given Arenado's scorching hot start this season. But Gomber is displaying signs of being a capable arm for the Rockies.

The left-hander currently holds a 3.58 ERA and has only surrendered more than 3 runs in a start once. He has also completed at least 6 innings in three consecutive outings. Despite all of this, the prospect of pitching in Colorado had scared potential fantasy baseball owners away.

But Gomber has a decent two-start week on the slate against the Giants in San Francisco and the Royals at home. No, pitching against the Giants is not ideal. But their offense has a few question marks and San Francisco features a fairly pitcher-friendly ballpark.

The Royals have endured their share of struggles on the offensive end so Gomber should finish up a strong two-start week well against KC in Colorado.

Michael Pineda, DET, 3.9% Rostered

Matchups: vs OAK, vs BAL

Michael Pineda does not excite me all that much. He isn't going to strikeout a lot of batters or set the world on fire by any means. However, this is about as good of a two-start week as you can ask for in fantasy baseball. Pineda gets to face the A's and Orioles at pitcher-friendly Comerica Park.

And Pineda has been fairly strong this season. The right-hander owns a 3.77 ERA and tends to limit hard contact. If Pineda ends up getting you a couple of wins this week that would be icing on the cake.

Single Start Options

Tony Gonsolin, LAD, 38.1% Rostered

Matchup: @PIT

Tony Gonsolin keeps posting impressive pitching performances and continues to be under-rostered. But hey, people trying to stream quality pitching options aren't complaining.

Gonsolin's main issue is that he has only pitched more than 5 innings once this year. So managers are worried that he won't give them the length needed to be successful. But even in just 5 innings last week, Gonsolin earned a win and struck out 5 batters while walking just 1 against the Giants.

He should get the job done once again in a matchup with the Pirates in Pittsburgh in Week 5.

Taijuan Walker, NYM, 50% Rostered

Matchup: @WSH

Taijuan Walker was far from dominant in his first outing in return from injury. He surrendered 6 runs and struck out just 2 batters against the Phillies. The good news was that Buck Showalter let him throw quite a few pitches and he was able to complete 4 innings. So if Walker finds himself pitching well against the Nationals, a quality start may not be out of the question.

Walker also might be someone you want to hold onto if he pitches well. He is one of the better pitchers in baseball when he's at the top of his game and pitching for the red hot Mets could provide him with the confidence necessary to go on a hot stretch himself.
