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.

How do you feel about Seth Lugo entering the rotation? As someone who drafted him as an RP, what would you do with him?
He’s not stretched out and I’m not sure how long he’ll actually be in the rotation. I wouldn’t take a chance on him.
