You also don't have to "stream" to win.
If you draft a balanced team, streaming is unnecessary unless you are just trying to scrounge a few categories on Sunday.

Streaming allows you to basically concentrate on offense only...that's the point of it...you don't have to worry about pitching because you win 3/5 categories every week...
In a standard 5X5 H2H league...I generally draft offense for the first 6-8 rounds...then focus on closers or VALUE picks the next 3-4 rounds after that...and then back to offense for the rest of the draft until a few late round relievers (that could be the 2009 version of Soria last year) and established pitchers that had a rocky 2008 that may rebound in 2009...and then I focus on grabbing the one or two Edinson Volquez's that emerge as great starters no one had ever heard of.
That's why it's strategy.
Streaming in H2H allows you to ignore pitching on draft day and still win the pitching categories every week.
If you don't stream in H2H, you have to draft pitchers high, and then you can't focus on offense...so it means ONE mistake could be the end of your season.
