We're back again with starting pitcher starts/sits for Week 12 of the fantasy baseball season – Monday, June 12 through Sunday, June 18.
For 11 years running, we have been writing this Starting Pitcher Starts and Sits series every week right here at RotoBaller. I'm Jon Anderson, back for my second year of handling the post. It's a lot of work, but also a lot of fun and really informative and helpful for me to put it together every week. We get tons of great feedback on it every year.
If you're new here, read the below to get caught up on what this all is and how to best use it. If you're not new here, you're probably not even reading this paragraph because you've already skipped forward to the table!

Start/Sit Data Overview
Ahead of each week of the fantasy baseball season, we publish the table below. We have the probable starters for every game of the week and a grade for them on a 0-100 scale. The intent is to give you advice and to inspire some confidence (or lack thereof) in your decisions to start or sit certain pitchers.
Initially, this table is automatically generated with an algorithm that I have written, but I do go through and fix things where they don't make sense. This year, I'm adding a third category that falls between "start" and "sit," which I call "context-dependent." This is because different leagues call for different actions.
For instance, if you are in a league with 300-player rosters, you are starting fewer SPs compared to a league with 500 players rostered. The "starts" category includes pitchers you should start in every league, the "sits" are pitchers that you sit in every league, and the "context-dependent" means I'm on the fence and it's up to you to decide based on your league settings. Let's get to it – here are your starts and sits for what we're calling Week 12 of the fantasy season – this week covers June 12 through June 18.
