Here are your morning rankings for today’s starting pitcher options.
It’s not perfect and will be far from the actual results at the end of the day, though it should give guidance for those questioning who to slot into your lineup on a given day.
There is a second table for tomorrow’s starting pitcher matchups as well, helping everyone get a jump on their nightly pickups. Please note that these matchups are subject to change, though, and there will be times when I have the incorrect pitcher going. I thank you for your future understanding.
Pitchers highlighted in yellow = Possible streaming options.
FS = False Starter where there is an assumed opener actually starting the game.
Red = Postponed.

You don’t like Logan Allen as a streamer today vs Orioles?
High projected Game Score. Tied at 56 with Price, Flaherty, and Snell.

Chad Green had to pitch on Monday night because Jonathan Holder entered the game in the top of the 8th in an 10-2 game and proceeded to give up a HR, 3 singles to load the bases, and then a Grand Slam to bookend it. All without getting an out. So Green may not be the opener today, but Cortes Jr. will pitch.
I think Ray may need to be lower for today against LAD. Over the last month, LAD has crushed L handed pitching and have the 6% best K% of 19.8%. Granted, I didn’t look into which lefties they have faced in that time but I am benching him today.
*6th best
And….I was wrong.
Pick an IL Stash:
D. German or C Smith?
Caleb Smith.
