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.

No comments today, but I’ll answer the comments throughout the day if you want further discussion on anyone.

Sorry for missing yesterday’s chart. Fell asleep on the couch watching games and had zero energy when I woke up and transferred to bed.

Be careful. A lot of names who did some good things throughout the summer are now very inconsistent which isn’t what you want in crunch time. We’ll have to take some risks with some of them, but the choices won’t be easy.

It’s a half-and-half slate on Wednesday. There are certainly some guys in the second half of the list that some of us can and will start, but there’s a lot of danger out there so tread carefully!

Back after a couple days missed. Friday wasn’t planned so my apologies while Monday the site was dark for Labor Day and I decided to take the day and just watch some baseball on the couch! Time for the stretch run now.
Hopefully your work isn’t already burned by Lucas Giolito! In fairness to him, it has to be tough to move teams twice in a month, especially moving across the country and then back again. I only started him because of the 2-step and I’m SOOO desperate for wins.
Today has a lot of startable guys a level beyond my recommendation (i.e. startable in 10s if I put 2xs, or 10s/12s if I put 1x) depending on your situation. Some of you need to open up your thresholds to have any chance of catching with time running out so you might be starting guys you normally wouldn’t have considered a month or three ago.
Here are my rest of season SP rankings. Let’s discuss in the comments if you have further questions about anyone. Obviously standings and situation will change how you manage these pitchers. If you’re chasing, open your window up a bit more… if you’re protecting, don’t hesitate to sit a Top 30 guy v. LAD or ATL (as a random example).
I will still have the Daily SP Chart running, too, so as things change with guys down the stretch, I’ll be able to adjust there.
