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.

Cueto is pitching tomorrow. Where would you rank him?
Fiers is listed both days.
SF says Cueto is going tomorrow against MIA, is he a start?

E-Rod should be today vs. Phi right? Where would he rank?
Manaea is pitching tomorrow, not Fiers.
You still have the wrong days for Porcello and Rodriquez. E-Rod pitches tonight, 9/14. Porcello pitches tomorrow, 9/15.
Trevor Williams is going for Pirates on Sunday not today. Cubs are rocking lately – would you start him?
Need to drop one for for next week. Stroman, Lester, Voth, Luchessi, Mikolas, Tanaka – go!
