12 Bryse Wilson MIL at PHI x 48 3.19 1.23 10% 9th/6th Another one where you’re nervous early, but might want the wknd start (at DET)
13 Ryne Nelson ARI v SFG x 40 6.02 1.76 10% 13th/18th I don’t really know what to make of him right now… I understand running him in deeper leagues, but I’m not excited about it
14 Spencer Howard SFG at ARI x 4 1.25 25% 19th/24th Was missing bats in AAA (32% K, 14% SwStr for 40 IP) so maaaybeeee?
15 Ryan Feltner COL v CIN 59 5.46 1.50 12% 29th/28th I gotta stop trying to Felt happen
16 Andrew Abbott CIN at COL 63 3.29 1.13 11% 6th/20th The amt of contact he allows + Coors could be a problem!
Recommendations for Roto 5×5 Leagues

 

The chart includes their 2024 stats (this changed over from last year’s stats on April 22nd), their opponent’s wOBA versus the pitcher’s handedness from this year so far (this is changed as of April 11th), 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 that just means it is a riskier stream as the league gets shallower.

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 and then you can generally expand these recommendations a bit for points leagues.
