Every Monday during the season, I will be releasing "The List" where I rank the current value of the Top 100 pitchers in fantasy baseball for the rest of the season. Use these rankings to help understand what to expect from pitchers for 2017 and as a tool to gauge trade value in your fantasy leagues. Note: These rankings have been made with H2H 5x5 12-teamers in mind.
Let's see how the SP landscape has changed:
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.
How do you feel about Bundy’s decreasing velocity?
Don’t love it at all, which is why I labeled Bundy as a sell over the weekend.
Still think he’s worth the risk in the 30s, but I can imagine people favoring him more than that.
Would you feel comfortable trading him for Calhoun?
How far does Nola fall with the recent news?
Heard they DL’d him retroactively to Apr 21 or something close. He might be in line for 2 starts next week if all is well.The 10 DL has changed the landscape.
This included that news as it could just be one start (1-2 they said). I dropped him slightly because of it, but it’s really just one week and change.

Love Benintendi, but fear he may be a better real life player than fantasy, at least for now. Like what Bundys done so far, but like Manaea as well. Not as high on Stroman. What’s really holding me back is that I can keep Benintendi through 2018.
Pull the trigger in the deal or hold?
In a keeper league I wouldn’t do that deal. If you were getting three back for two it would be a different story, but you’re giving up alot and discounting Stroman in the process. Offer Stroman for Manaea if you feel so inclined.
I think if you can keep Benintendi but not Cruz, you don’t make that deal.
Otherwise, I take the Manaea/Cruz side.
Why is Manaea so high? Doesn’t his walk rate make him more of a 40s arm, not top 25?
I don’t trust that the walk rate will stay this high and think it will be closer to 2.50 BB/9 here on out.
Would you give Cueto and deGrom for Kershaw?
I wouldn’t give you Kershaw for that
Think it depends how deep the league is. Deep league would rather have Cuerto and DeGrom
I’d hold Kershaw.
Dylan over Ervin?
Yep. Ervin is not nearly as good as he’s been thus far.
Danny Duffy at 20 is super super bullish. Why?
