84% Informative

A.J. Puk recorded a microscopic 1.72 ERA with a 0.75 WHIP over 57.2 innings after moving to relief last season .

Nick Lodolo was 8 -2 with a 2.76 ERA, a 1.76 WHIP and a 20.5 K-BB% that ranked top 20 among starters.

Grant Holmes will benefit from pitching for a Braves team primed to produce more run support in 2025 .

Schmidt recorded a 26.3 K% that would’ve ranked top 15 among qualified starters.

Schmidt ’s ERA will likely rise this season , but he's still someone to target at an incredible discount well past pick 200 .

Nick Pivetta has the fifth -best K-BB% since 2023 , so he looks like a top-40 fantasy SP after his move from Fenway Park .
