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.

How many IP does Ryu throw this year? He’s already matched last year and he hasn’t thrown more than 120 in 3-4 years mabye.
If the Dodgers were smart, they’d issue him two phantom IL stints when they have some games in a row against the Giants, Padres and Diamondbacks. I wouldn’t even be surprised if his first stint was the first of three planned.
I know it’s early (I think like just 2 starts this month so far) but does Jurado have more cherry bomb or Toby elements?
15 team points league and I’m streaming vs the top team and just got burned by Nelson. Chances of getting burned with this stream?
