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.

Why on god’s green Earth did they decide Mad Bum needs a rest. In a very close championship matchup I needed that start. Gonna lose 5-6, tied in QS and W. #WompWomp
Thanks for all the work you have done this season! I share my second place with PitcherList!
Thanks Jim! Sorry it didn’t work out for you in the end, let’s get it next year :)
Concerned that Roark will be on a pitch count with the A’s having already clinched?
I don’t think Roark will be favored over Manaea/Fiers/Brett Anderson/Bailey, so they’ll let him fly.
Any idea of top 4 bulk relievers to grab for today?
