2024 Fantasy Baseball Starting Pitcher Preview: The best way to evaluate SPs and draft targets

SIERA is a far better predictor of future ERA than actual ERA.

Spencer Strider stands out among starters and is worthy of being a top-five overall pick, but I’d argue there’s a gigantic tier after him, with huge upside in the middle rounds.

Starting pitchers contribute more to your fantasy team than hitters thanks to the way SPs are being treated.

Lodolo 's season was ruined last year by a stress reaction in his leg that never required surgery.

Steamer projects Lodolo to have the eighth -best strikeout rate among all SPs in 2024 .

Canning likely won’t rack up wins pitching for the Angels , but he’s back on the fantasy scene thanks to increased velocity last season .
