Tuesday 6/30 Starting Pitcher Streamer Rankings
Auto-Starts
- Cristopher Sánchez (https://pitcherlist.com/player/cristopher-sanchez/) vs. PIT - Aces gonna ace.
- Cam Schlittler (https://pitcherlist.com/player/cam-schlittler/) vs. DET - Aces gonna ace.
- Jacob deGrom (https://pitcherlist.com/player/jacob-degrom/) @ CLE - Aces gonna ace.
- Joe Ryan (https://pitcherlist.com/player/joe-ryan/) @ HOU - Aces gonna ace.
- Tarik Skubal (https://pitcherlist.com/player/tarik-skubal/) @ NYY - Prove to me that you deserve the tag again. PLEASE.
- Bryan Woo (https://pitcherlist.com/player/bryan-woo/) vs. LAA - Same. You had some poor luck last time and you’re not nearly as bad as the ERA would have us believe.
Probably Starts
- Kevin Gausman (https://pitcherlist.com/player/kevin-gausman/) vs. NYM - I know it’s been a shaky two starts, but he’s fine, y’all. It happens.
- Nolan McLean (https://pitcherlist.com/player/nolan-mclean/) @ TOR - McLean is looking better but not fixed.
- Landen Roupp (https://pitcherlist.com/player/landen-roupp/) @ ARI - He’s well-versed in locating his pitches, which is what the command...meant. ANYWAY, start him in fantasy.
- Griffin Jax (https://pitcherlist.com/player/griffin-jax/) @ KCR - Jax may start getting the sixth inning after getting pushed well over 80 pitches. Wouldn’t that be something?
Questionable Starts
- Connelly Early (https://pitcherlist.com/player/connelly-early/) vs. WSH - He just took down the Yankees and now faces the #1 offense against LHP. His arsenal wasn’t as great as the line suggested against the pinstripes, so I’d be careful if I could.
- Matthew Boyd (https://pitcherlist.com/player/matthew-boyd/) vs. SDP - He’s one start removed from his Still ILL and I’m tempted to go for it against the Friars.
- Cade Cavalli (https://pitcherlist.com/player/cade-cavalli/) @ BOS - Cavalli gets a team that struggles against RHP, though I still hate breaking the ‘Huascar Rule”.
- Brandon Sproat (https://pitcherlist.com/player/brandon-sproat/) vs. CIN - Sproat just dominated the Reds with high heaters and Hey! It’s the Reds!
- Tanner Bibee (https://pitcherlist.com/player/tanner-bibee/) vs. TEX - Bibee’s affinity for sinkers has been generally positive, though I don’t consider it a special offering and his changeup has been missing. He’s still a coin flip in my mind.
- José Soriano (https://pitcherlist.com/player/jose-soriano/) @ SEA - It’s a luxurious matchup for a pitcher struggling to return to his early-season form. He’s a HIPSTER.
- Justin Wrobleski (https://pitcherlist.com/player/justin-wrobleski/) @ ATH - Wrobo Cop is looking better lately and spotting his 95/96 mph four-seamer up top effectively. I just wish it weren’t Sacré Verde.
- Martín Pérez (https://pitcherlist.com/player/martin-perez/) vs. STL - He’s been a Vargas Rule, though the Cardinals pack some thump.
- Bubba Chandler (https://pitcherlist.com/player/bubba-chandler/) @ PHI - Who knows. I doubt Tuesday is the day, but it’s possible.
Do Not Starts
- Noah Cameron (https://pitcherlist.com/player/noah-cameron/) vs. TBR - Cameron’s ceiling isn’t worth the floor.
- Eury Pérez (https://pitcherlist.com/player/eury-perez/) @ COL - He’s not stretched out, his ability is questionable, and it’s Coors.
- Matthew Liberatore (https://pitcherlist.com/player/matthew-liberatore/) @ ATL - This is too mid for Atlanta.
- Rhett Lowder (https://pitcherlist.com/player/rhett-lowder/) @ MIL - If he has his slider and change working, there’s a shot for 5+ decent frames.
- Brandon Pfaadt (https://pitcherlist.com/player/brandon-pfaadt/) vs. SFG - Whoa, he’s starting again! It’s a very clear wait-and-see, even against the Giants.
- JP Sears (https://pitcherlist.com/player/jp-sears/) @ CHC - Sears was successful in his first outing, but now it’s June Wrigley. For one more day. It’s still June Wrigley.
- Mike Burrows (https://pitcherlist.com/player/mike-burrows/) vs. MIN - Burrows has had flashes of success. That’s about it.
- Trey Gibson (https://pitcherlist.com/player/trey-gibson/) vs. CHW - The slider is cool, but there’s so much more left to polish.
- Jeffrey Springs (https://pitcherlist.com/player/jeffrey-springs/) vs. LAD - It’s hard to find sunshine and rainbows against the Dodgers, especially in Sacré Verde.
- Erick Fedde (https://pitcherlist.com/player/erick-fedde/) @ BAL - Don’t trust him.
- Tanner Gordon (https://pitcherlist.com/player/tanner-gordon/) vs. MIA - He’s returning from the IL. So it’s a questionable skill set, in Coors, in a Still ILL.
Wednesday 7/1 Starting Pitcher Streamer Rankings
Auto-Starts
- Paul Skenes (https://pitcherlist.com/player/paul-skenes/) @ PHI - Aces gonna ace.
- Shohei Ohtani (https://pitcherlist.com/player/shohei-ohtani/) @ ATH - Aces gonna ace.
- Zack Wheeler (https://pitcherlist.com/player/zack-wheeler/) vs. PIT - Aces gonna ace.
Probably Starts
- MacKenzie Gore (https://pitcherlist.com/player/mackenzie-gore/) @ CLE - It’s the Guardians for a pitcher finding his groove.
- Shane McClanahan (https://pitcherlist.com/player/shane-mcclanahan/) @ KCR - You want to start in Kansas City and McShane’s velocity is still up.
- Payton Tolle (https://pitcherlist.com/player/payton-tolle/) vs. WSH - Tolle gets one of the toughest matchups for LHP. I hope he proves himself highly capable.
- Max Meyer (https://pitcherlist.com/player/max-meyer/) @ COL - It’s Coors in Meyer’s potential ‘Coronation Day’. YOU GOT THIS.
Questionable Starts
- Joey Cantillo (https://pitcherlist.com/player/joey-cantillo/) vs. TEX - Cantillo may deserve a spot in the second tier after two nine-strikeout games with awesome feel for his curveball and extra life on the heater. I want to see it a third time before believing it’s real after an extended period of turmoil.
- Freddy Peralta (https://pitcherlist.com/player/freddy-peralta/) @ TOR - It’s rough rostering Peralta these days. The good news? The stuff isn’t so far from when he’s producing. It should be better, y’all.
- Andrew Abbott (https://pitcherlist.com/player/andrew-abbott/) @ MIL - Abbott has continued to come through, even if we’re back to ‘I don’t quite understand why’. Doesn’t matter how, just that he is, yeah?
- Will Warren (https://pitcherlist.com/player/will-warren/) vs. DET - Warren gets a tough draw against the Tigers and I’m not in love with his overall schtick. If his four-seamer and sinker can do their job, he’ll be fine with a solid Win chance.
- Colin Rea (https://pitcherlist.com/player/colin-rea/) vs. SDP - Rea has proven himself a strong option against mediocre offenses and look at that! It’s the Friars!
- Troy Melton (https://pitcherlist.com/player/troy-melton/) @ NYY - We’re seeing more whiffs from Melton, and it’s possible I’m underrating the cold NYY bats.
- Shane Drohan (https://pitcherlist.com/player/shane-drohan/) vs. CIN - Drohan isn’t overwhelming batters, but the Reds have been more susceptible to high heaters as of late, and it’s away from their bandbox of a home.
- Tatsuya Imai (https://pitcherlist.com/player/tatsuya-imai/) vs. MIN - If you’re chasing strikeouts, you should do it. Otherwise, Imai is a huge ratio risk and I feel like it’s a coin flip each time he pitches.
- Taj Bradley (https://pitcherlist.com/player/taj-bradley/) @ HOU - Did someone say coin flip? Bradley was much better against LHB last time out and now he’s sure to get a whole bunch of RHB...
Do Not Starts
- Walker Buehler (https://pitcherlist.com/player/walker-buehler/) @ CHC - Buehler has had a ridiculous Vargas Rule run with few HRs as he’s wisely leaned heavily on secondaries over heaters. It’s summer Wrigley and it doesn’t make for a strong play. The ceiling is too low.
- Dean Kremer (https://pitcherlist.com/player/dean-kremer/) vs. CHW - It’s a Still ILL for Kremer and I’m not sure what we’ll get. There’s some upside here if the command is at its peak for his wide arsenal, but history tells us the chances are low.
- Michael McGreevy (https://pitcherlist.com/player/michael-mcgreevy/) @ ATL - If you’re looking for ERA/WHIP, despite all my skepticism, there’s a better chance than most in this tier for six productive innings.
- J.T. Ginn (https://pitcherlist.com/player/jt-ginn/) vs. LAD - It’s Sacré Verde and the Dodgers.
- Trevor McDonald (https://pitcherlist.com/player/trevor-mcdonald/) @ ARI - I miss the days when he’d incessantly hurl breakers and batters didn’t know what to do with them. Maybe it’s still in there. Maybe.
- Seth Lugo (https://pitcherlist.com/player/seth-lugo/) vs. TBR - Lugo isn’t looking like his best these days. Why risk it?
- Reynaldo López (https://pitcherlist.com/player/reynaldo-lopez/) vs. STL - ReyLó just returned to the rotation and I don’t believe he’s stretched out enough to justify a spin of the wheel for what has been a low ceiling.
- Andrew Alvarez (https://pitcherlist.com/player/andrew-alvarez/) @ BOS - The Nationals haven’t let Alvarez complete five frames yet. His breakers can be cool, but until we see the length and quality, I’m out.
- Noah Schultz (https://pitcherlist.com/player/noah-schultz/) @ BAL - It’s a Still ILL for Schultz and I don’t want to go after this until I see he’s comfortably pitching 80+ pitches with worthwhile ability.
- Zac Gallen (https://pitcherlist.com/player/zac-gallen/) vs. SFG - This hasn’t worked in such a long time.
- Patrick Corbin (https://pitcherlist.com/player/patrick-corbin/) vs. NYM - It’s the Mets! It’s also a PC. Despite not being a Mac guy, I’m out. But Gore! McShane! Tristan! Okay, touché.
- Kyle Freeland (https://pitcherlist.com/player/kyle-freeland/) vs. MIA - Absolutely not.
