With only 3 games, I figured I’d just write up the guys instead of doing the whole chart.

Welcome to the Daily SP Chart, click here if you’re new to get an idea of what I’m doing with these rankings.

• With such little time left, everything is heavily based on your particular situation so if you have any specific questions, drop a comment and I’ll help the best I can!
• Quick Sunday board for y’all, too! One week left!!!!
• I don’t know who is starting for LAD, but Sheehan makes more sense than Wrobleski, who started on Thursday. Sure, Wrobo only threw three innings, but recalling Sheehan (last pitched 9/13) just seems like a smarter option to me.

• Laaate edit: Woo is 1-x on the road and really only a Win chase at that. I mistakenly conflated his and Gilbert’s home-road record. He’s brutal on the road like Kirby and just so tough to run on the road. Sorry it’s come so late and I hope no one is starting Woo because of my reco! 😬

• Baz is 2-6 in his L8, but he hasn’t been bad – 4.21 ERA/1.19 WHIP/15% K-BB… decent matchup, but NYM is 2nd in wOBA over the L30 days
• LAA’s arms have flipped on a dime since Mike Maddux’s departure and Johnson’s been a big part of that (2.15 ERA/1.00 WHIP in his L5) despite a modest 7% K-BB, but the Ks are up in his L2 with 11 in 12 IP (17% K-B at PIT, at BOS) giving me more confidence to run him here.
• After a huge swoon followed by an IL stint, Martin has returned with a pair of solid outings, though just 4 Ks in the 10.7 IP. The CLE matchup helps with my confidence in him.
• Gilbert has back-to-back 10+ K games, though he still allowed 7 ER v. ATH because of 4 HRs.
• Pérez has truly had an excellent season, but starting anyone v. CHC is very scary, especially with so little time left in the season, so I wouldn’t blame anyone from skipping this just to protect against a potential blowup.
• Jax had a Dud immediately off the IL (2.7 IP/6 ER) but rebounded with a solid outing at ATL (5 IP/1 ER), but still had just 2 Ks.
• I want to like Pallante more and his 2.35 ERA/1.17 WHIP in the 2H are great, but just an 8% K-BB and the low W probability (2-o in his 8 2H starts) give me some pause.

• Burke is slated to follow Sean Newcomb
• Hard to say if Burnes is going to get enough leeway to get 5 IP and qualify for a W, but he does have a 2-step so if 8-9 total IP of solid ratios works for you, then he is a worthwhile start.
