Every weekend 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 9 start from 5/29 - 6/4:
Founder of Pitcher List. Creator of CSW, The List, and SP Roundup. Worked with MSG, FanGraphs, CBS Sports, and Washington Post. Former college pitcher, travel coach, pitching coach, and Brandeis alum. Wants every pitcher to be dope.
Need 3 from your START list….Manea, Nola, JCRam and Duffy( he’ll be facing Cle for the 3rd time).
Manaea, Nola, Duffy.
Tanaka or Nola this week? Tanaka has me scared, the only time I benched him since owning him was last week :(
I trust Nola more.
Surprised to see Lynn vs CHC as a maybe. What is the thinking there? He’s been great, they’ve been mediocre?
It’s still the Cubs and Lynn is hit-and-miss.
I meant I would’ve thought him to be a definite “sit” against the Cubs.
Oh!
The man just had a darling of a start and clearly there’s upside there. It depends if you need to take the risk or not, hence “Maybe”.
Berrios vs the on-fire Astros? I understand the excitement but man that’s a scary start. Think I’m going to let the young gun ride the bench for this one. Will be watching intently though.
