Marlins Could Consider Six-Man Rotation
2 years agoMiami Marlins pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre Jr. said Monday that the team will "take a look at" implementing a six-man starting rotation, per Miami Herald's Jordan McPherson. Manager Skip Schumaker and general manager Kim Ng presented the idea to Stottlemyre, who said, "We are confident with those six guys all fighting for spots." Those players include Sandy Alcantara, Johnny Cueto, Edward Cabrera, Jesus Luzardo, Trevor Rodgers, and Braxton Garrett. Alcantara won the 2022 National League Cy Young Award and is one of fantasy's top pitchers, and Cueto offers a veteran floor with the ability to pitch deeper into games. The other four pitchers offer fantasy upside but also dealt with injuries in 2022. Luzardo is currently being drafted as the earliest of the four at pick 150 overall, with the others ranging from 221 to 454. Spring training will help shape future ADP, but all of these pitchers could be potentially helpful fantasy options if they see routine starts.
