Today’s focus is the 2017 starting pitcher fantasy baseball rankings (part one). We’ll be looking at the top six tiers of starting pitchers.

Starting Pitcher Rankings Analysis: The Tiers

Tier 1

The half-dozen players in this tier are all fantastic options for the ace of your fake baseball team. Let’s be real, though – there’s Kershaw, and then there’s everyone else. Great as Max Scherzer and company may be, nobody’s trying to make a case for taking any of them first overall. Last season’s back issues are certainly something to keep in mind, but assuming health, Kershaw is the only pitcher who’s a slam-dunk first-round pick. Scherzer’s renewed vulnerability to the longball is what maintains the gap between him and this generation’s answer to Sandy Koufax. Of course, even allowing 31 bombs didn’t prevent him from posting excellent ratios and a gaudy strikeout total in his third straight season with 220+ innings.

Chris Sale saw his K% drop by over six points, but he still finished fifth in baseball with 233 punchouts, so…y’know. Noah Syndergaard is incredible, even if it seems like only a matter of time before his arm explodes. That he only finished eighth in the Cy Young voting just speaks to the incredible pitching talent in the game right now. To wit: We haven’t even talked about Corey Kluber and Madison Bumgarner yet. Their metronome-like dominance and durability is even more valuable when you consider the volatile nature of pitching as a fantasy asset.

Tier 2 

Full of guys who could make solid cases that they belong in the top tier. Yu Darvish returned from Tommy John surgery and didn’t miss a beat – in fact, he was arguably better than before. Justin Verlander returned to form after a couple of down years had many of us wondering if being a workhorse for so long had finally caught up to him. Stephen Strasburg was making a strong case for the Cy before his elbow crapped out. Jake Arrieta’s ERA nearly doubled from the previous year…to 3.10. He also won 18 games and posted a 1.08 WHIP despite some bouts of wildness. Teammate Jon Lester continued to be one of the most reliable arms in the game while enjoying fantastic defense behind him that made his numbers even better. The Giants’ even-year reign finally, mercifully came to an end, but not because of anything Johnny Cueto did. The veteran was fantastic in his first year in San Francisco and has now posted a 2.86 ERA this decade. That’s second to Kershaw among qualified starters during that time.

Tier 3

Here’s where we start getting into “RIGBY” territory. Carlos Carrasco has been a fantastic late bloomer, but he’s yet to pitch more than 185 innings in a season. He also gave up too many homers and allowed a lot of other hard contact last season. Chris Archer maintained the jump in his strikeout rate, but likewise had a homer problem that led to a 4.02 ERA and nearly made him the first 20-game loser since Mike Maroth. David Price’s first season in Boston was identical to his previous two in many areas, but he also saw a sharp increase in longballs. Jacob deGrom was his usual awesome self until his elbow flared up. He’s expected to be healthy this spring, but surgery naturally makes folks nervous.

Speaking of nervous, I’m less enamored of the other guys in this group than my colleagues. I loved Kyle Hendricks as a value pick last season, but his breakout wasn’t entirely real. His underlying numbers were eerily similar to 2015, he just benefited from a low BABIP and high strand rate. Now, some of that is attributable to his skill at inducing weak contact, and some is due to what should still be an excellent Cubs defense. But he’s got a Dallas Keuchel vibe to him. Similarly, Aaron Sanchez’s improvement last year still left him with uninspiring peripherals. He’s young and further improvement could certainly be in the cards, but paying an expectant price seems unwise. Lastly, Tanaka seems to have successfully pitched around the specter of Tommy John, but his strikeout rate has declined each of the last two seasons and 2016 was his first time pitching more than 154 innings.

Tier 4

I’m fully on board with rebounds for Gerrit Cole and Zack Greinke, as well as Danny Duffy’s breakout. Rich Hill can’t be counted on for a full season – then again, if he could, he’d be in the second tier at worst. Individual owners will have to decide if the brilliance is worth the likely injury headaches. Cole Hamels, Carlos Martinez, and Jose Quintana are this group’s Steady Eddies, though the fantasy community seems to be paying slightly expectant prices for CMart. Michael Fulmer won Rookie of the Year honors in the AL despite peripherals that were good rather than great. His minor league track record suggests further strikeout upside, which he’ll need to tap into to offset the likely rise in his ERA.

Tier 5

Kenta Maeda belongs in a higher tier than this, but Jeff hates him for some reason. Maeda proved the skeptics (myself included) wrong last season, striking out more than a batter per inning with solid ratios. None of us are totally buying Rick Porcello’s Cy Young season, which reflects the trepidation of the community at large. I’m the low man on Marcus Stroman, having fallen decidedly out of love after a lackluster showing last year. I haven’t stopped giving Julio Teheran a healthy dose of side-eye, either. The rest of this group is pretty high variance, whether due to injury issues (Matt Harvey, Danny Salazar), youth (Jon Gray, Julio Urias) or both (Lance McCullers).

Tier 6

Aaron Nola is being criminally overlooked in drafts this year. He was mid-breakout before arm trouble and a laughably low strand rate torpedoed his season. As a result, he’s being drafted in basically the same spot as last year. Steven Matz is similarly situated, but hasn’t been dinged as much by owners so far. John Lackey will be 39 in October, but he’s on a great team and has excellent ratios (3.35 ERA, 1.18 WHIP) over the last four years. I’m buying Sean Manaea’s second half performance more than James Paxton’s, though both lefties have had trouble staying healthy. J.A. Happ and Tanner Roark don’t have the strikeout upside to be true stars, but either is a fine mid-rotation option. Y’all can take your chances with former Cy winners Felix Hernandez and Dallas Keuchel; I don’t expect to come away with any shares.

The NFL offseason is starting to heat up, and the league's legal tampering period is set to begin on March 10 at noon Eastern. Free agents cannot officially sign until the new league year begins on March 12 at 4 p.m. Eastern, but deals will be agreed to, and news will be coming in quickly […]

2025 Fantasy Football Sleepers: Players To Target In Deep Leagues

Fantasy football sleepers are what make the game fun. There is nothing like landing an absolute stud in the double-digit rounds of your fantasy draft. The more teams in your league, the more important sleepers become. As the player pool shrinks, it is an absolute must to hit on at least one or two sleepers. […]

Fantasy Football Avoids, Busts: 2025 NFL Free Agent Signings

The 2025 NFL free-agency period is well underway, and many wide receivers, tight ends, quarterbacks, and running backs have already found their new homes. While some of them are in better landing spots, or at least should continue having solid production relative to their ADP (anticipated draft position) in fantasy football, some of them should […]

2025 Fantasy Football Rookie Sleepers: Late-Round Prospects With Immediate Upside

Players who are thought of as less likely to succeed in the NFL are typically selected later in drafts. When a player falls through the rounds, it's generally because teams have doubts about their ability to produce. It takes a specific family of skill sets to succeed in the big leagues. But sometimes, players fall […]

2025 Fantasy Football Tight End Sleepers For Best Ball Drafts

Tight end is one of the most important positions in fantasy football, and heading into 2025, the position seems even deeper than it has been in past seasons. Sure, there’s the new cream rising to the top with Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, but a lot of veterans are seen much lower in best ball […]

Fantasy Football Bust Candidates: Second Round Avoids For 2025 Drafts

It's a little bit easier to identify potential busts in the second round of fantasy football drafts than in the first round. Of course, the further the drafts wear on, the fewer highly-talented players everyone knows are available. In the second round, there are usually more players with question marks than there are in the […]

Free Agency Fantasy Football Analysis: Risers On New Teams (2025)

Sometimes the grass really is greener on the other side, and sometimes NFL players are able to go to said other side where said grass is greener and sign with a team that puts them in a better situation for fantasy football success. Such is the case for several players this season. Sometimes wide receivers […]

Dallas Goedert Top Landing Spots: 2025 NFL Trade Outlook

The Philadelphia Eagles are apparently attempting to trade their top tight end, Dallas Goedert, for at least a fourth-round pick in compensation. Whether or not they get their wish remains to be seen, but Goedert was still a reasonably productive TE in his final year with the Eagles with injuries aside. Part of the reason […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had a decent season filling in for the injured Isiah Pacheco and later serving in a committee with him when he returned from his broken fibula.

Wide receiver Brandin Cooks is a free agent for the first time in his career after his contract with the Dallas Cowboys expired this offseason. He is now free to sign with any team he chooses. Cooks did not have his best season in 2024. He only posted a 26-259-3 line in 10 games and […]

Gus Edwards Top Landing Spots: 2025 NFL Free Agency Outlook

The Los Angeles Chargers recently cut Gus Edwards after one season with the team. He had just signed a two-year deal with Los Angeles last offseason, but apparently, the team wanted to go in a different direction. It’s understandable as Edwards averaged a career-worst 3.6 yards per carry in 2024. His advanced metrics weren’t great […]
