The chart includes their season performance, their opponent’s wOBA versus the pitcher’s handedness over the last 30 days, 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 risky 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.
If you’ve been reading all year, you know I’m always trying things to hopefully improve the chart. The matchup is now in one column instead of three (the three is for automation purposes in Excel) and I was able to add the wOBA rank for the entire year along w/the Last 30 day rank so you can get a more complete picture. That will also help show why someone might get recommended everywhere despite facing a Top 5 offense over the L30 because I know that team is Bottom 5 for the year and I don’t believe in their hot streak or something to the effect. And this way I don’t have to use the comment explaining that, you’ll just something like 4th/28th and have a better understanding.
I think I’m going to be putting extra commentary in this space down the stretch (not everyday, but multiple times a week) so be sure to check this spot as you scroll down to the sheet. As always, if you want to discuss any further, hit me up in the comments!

The 2023 version of the Bullpen Report includes five different sections, as well as the closer chart, which can be found at the bottom of the page.
We will always include a link to the full Closer Depth Chart at the bottom of the Bullpen Report each day. It’s also accessible from the RosterResource drop-down menu and from any RosterResource page. Please let us know what you think.
The “RosterResource” link will take you to the corresponding team’s RosterResource depth chart, which will give you a better picture of the full bullpen and results of the previous six days (pitch count, save, hold, win, loss, blown save).

Thresholds open up a bit on Mondays, particularly in weekly lineup leagues where you have to commit for the 2-step on the weekend, but even in daily lineup leagues because you have the rest of the week to catch up if a gamble falls through… well, within reason… probably won’t be able to outrun a 10-run bomb or anything, but those are really rare anyway.

: Now he’s reportedly coming back to play hurt and get surgery after the season. How seriously should I take this and would he slot in ahead of dudes like Stone Garrett for HR/SB upside or Joc P the OBP/HR platoon assassin?

: I’d stay away. I bet he’s worried about losing his job.

: You giving up Cobb for Littell?
Also, short bench… are you hanging onto Franco for now? |
In the article, I cover the players using CBS’s (about 40% or less initial roster rate) and Yahoo’s ADD/DROP rates. Both hosting sites have the option for daily and weekly waiver wire adds. CBS uses a weekly change while Yahoo looks at the last 24 hours. Yahoo is a great snapshot of right now while CBS ensures hot targets from early in the week aren’t missed. The players are ordered for redraft leagues by my rest-of-season preference grouped by starters, relievers, and hitters. Read the rest of this entry »
