2021 First Run Starting Pitcher Rankings
Well, we got a season! It was only two months so it’s really hard to know exactly how much stock to put it into any of it, but here’s my first look. Obviously this is subject to change and will do so quite a bit as the offseason moves forward, but I feel pretty good about this initial look. I decided not to tier it yet as I’m just not feeling confident in the cutoffs, but rest assured that there are several globs once we get past the first 25 or so. I also just labeled pitchers with their current team, we’ll get into free agent stuff later in the offseason.
Let me know what you think in the comments! I’ll have more detailed ranks out shortly after the playoffs.
Note: Pearson, Richards, and Fiers added after initial post. Meanwhile, I had missed Hudson’s TJ.
Way too low on Samardzija IMO
Way too high in mine, lol
