Sit/Start Week 1.5: Reviewing All Starting Pitcher Matchups From 4/2 – 4/8

Every Sunday here at Pitcher List, I review all expected starting pitcher matchups for the week ahead. There are three labels: Start, Maybe, and Sit. Outings marked with a Maybe are circumstantial and dependent on your needs in a 12-teamer, while the other two are self-explanatory. Feel free to question my designations in the comments and we’ll dive into it together.

Here’s the massive table containing every Week 1.5 start from 4/2 – 4/8:
