Starts and Sits - All Starting Pitcher Matchups for Fantasy Baseball (July 31 - August 6)

Brandon Woodruff - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Howdy, RotoBallers, and welcome back to our starting pitcher starts/sits for fantasy baseball Week 19 -- from Monday, July 31 through Sunday, August 6.

For 11 years running, we have been writing this Starting Pitcher Starts and Sits series every week right here at RotoBaller. I'm Nick Mariano, returning to the helm after taking a couple of years off. There's plenty involved under the hood here and lots of TLC goes into this piece each week. We get tons of great feedback on it every year.

If you're new here, read below to get caught up on what this all is and how to best use it. Good luck with your fantasy baseball starting pitcher lineup decisions!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball draft tools and resources:

 

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.

Please note that beyond the usual "Start" and "Sit" labels, there is a third category called "context-dependent." This is because different leagues call for different actions and those in start-sit purgatory may be worth the gamble to some. Also, we put the arms best projected to start or get bulk innings, but some situations are fluid and we update ASAP to reflect accurate information.

The "starts" category includes pitchers you'd likely start in every league. The "sits" are pitchers that you likely sit in every league. The "context-dependent" means we're on the fence and it's up to you to decide based on your league settings. How deep your league is, which roto/points categories, and so on. Let's get to it! Here are your starts and sits for what we're calling Week 19 of the fantasy season which covers July 31 through August 6.

 

Week 19 Start/Sit Recommendations

Updated start/sit recommendations for this week's MLB games. This chart is updated daily as probable starters are constantly changing with game postponements, injuries, and other events. If you can't see the chart below, click here to see the starts/sits on a separate page:
