Welcome back to the Daily SP Chart! I figure the first weekend was pretty straightforward which is why I didn’t fire it up on Thursday. Now that we’re in the swing of things, it’s time to get it going again.
The chart includes their performance for 2024 until we get some actual data for this year (I changed over in late-April last year), their opponent’s wOBA versus the pitcher’s handedness from last year (not a perfect solution as teams change in the offseason, but better than using just a few days of data from this year), my general start/sit recommendation for 10-team, 12-team, and 15-team (or more) leagues, and then a note about them. Obviously, there are league sizes beyond those three so it’s essentially a shallow, medium, deep. If a pitcher only has an “x” in 15-team, it doesn’t mean there’s no potential use in 10s and 12s, but it’s basically a riskier stream for those spots.
These are general recommendations, and your league situation will carry more weight whether you are protecting ratios or chasing counting numbers. This is for standard 5×5 roto leagues. The thresholds for H2H starts are generally lower, especially in points leagues so I thought there would be more value focusing on roto.
Another gem for Hunter Greene, coming an out shy of a shutout. I won’t run from my L if he pops off this year, not conceding after three starts, either. He does look amazing, though… does Sugarfree Red Bull go well with crow?
Pardon my tardiness this morning, I was on the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast last night and wasn’t able to finish up the boards before crashing out. I’m working on a new format so the comments show up underneath the player data, but my first few attempts went south so I got frustrated and just went back to the normal setup. If and when I get it working properly, it’ll look like this:

Theodore: ROS would you add Hicks over Roupp or Mize?

Paul Sporer: I would not. I’m not a big Hicks-as-SP fan. Great start yesterday and there will be gems, but he started brilliantly last yr, too… I just don’t trust him

Mike: Who do you like, if anyone, to add as a potential closer in Detroit?

Paul Sporer: I don’t mind going for Kahnle or Brieske, just gotta know there isn’t a lockdown A-guy right now and likely won’t be under Hinch

Guest: Hi Paul, Toglia or J Walker in a roto league?

It’s a very straightforward Wednesday with 6 of my Top 10 and 20 of the 30 landing in my Top 60 pitchers. Let me know if you have any questions or comments below! I stay on top of the comments so in a case like Monday where Thomas Harrington was called up, I’ll definitely get in there and give my thoughts if someone asks about them.

The 2-Start chart is a Monday feature ranking the expected 2-start pitchers. For now, the data is for 2024 until we start getting to 4-5 starts for guys. I am a bit riskier early in the season when it comes to 2-start guys. It does a bit more pressure on the ratios if you eat too many blowups, but we’ve got 6 months to work and ratios can move a lot all year long. And it’s not like I’m just frivolously starting any 2-start arm, either, just that I’ll take on some tougher starts to get the potential gem against one of the worst teams in the league.
