LINEUPS OUTLOOK: Potential post-hype breakouts, on-base targets and hitters for streaming

With more leagues rewarding on-base average, two hitters may be settling into second in their respective lineups, which provides more runs plus RBI, making them worth speculating on. Last, but not least, two potential stream options for those replacing injured players, or maximizing their weekly lineups.
