If you have Tarik Skubal, this looks it should be a really good week for you. Though it almost always is. He’s really good! But you get a double serving this week! As for everyone else…it could be worse. It’s not that it’s a bad week for two start options; it’s just that it isn’t […]

I don’t have a whole lot to say in the way of introduction this week. But, Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. If there are four female readers…maybe ONE mom? Also, Happy Mother’s Day to YOUR mom, for letting you eat Cheetos and live in the basement, give her a special treat […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This week’s biggest question mark is probably out in Arizona. Corbin Burnes was originally lined up to be a part of this list, but it was announced that a shoulder issue means he will be getting skipped at least one turn through the rotation. Ryne Nelson is being widely speculated as being the man to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There’s a few things to mention before we get into it this week. The biggest question marks going into Sunday’s action is who will take over open rotation spots for the Athletics, Blue Jays, and White Sox. For our purposes here, who they select really means nothing, because the choices are all distasteful. Do be […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?After a couple of pretty strong weeks in the two-start department, this week is significantly weaker. It has the potential to be pretty good, but a few names in the Sugar Cookie tier haven’t been as good as you’d hope they would be, and there are some sour matchups on deck to boot. Beyond that, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?And so it begins. Not the season, as that obviously started a few weeks ago. Rather, uncertainty and a complete lack of clarity is beginning to rear its obnoxious head this week. It started last week, when it appeared as though Dustin May was lined up to make two starts for the Dodgers. That didn’t […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Is it Christmas already? This is the kind of weeks you dream about and look forward to with giddy excitement. Some weeks this list is brutal, and it feels like a stretch to have anyone in the top tier. But this is not one of those weeks, my friends. This week there are guys you […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Baseball is back, and the Cookie Shop is once again open for business! Why a cookie shop? Because there needs to be some sort of hook for this column, and I bake a lot of cookies. So, while there is the obvious and straightforward description given for each tier, each is also assigned a type of cookie. […]

We made it! If you’re still here this week, congratulations on a great season! I have good news, in that this week looks positioned to have a nice selection of quality two-start options. There is bad news, though, and that is the fact that final week rotations never, ever go as planned. Which means you […]

After a few weeks of really ugly slates, we are chock-full of goodness this week. At least, that’s how it looks on paper and before GMs, managers, and injuries start ruining everything. Still, we’ll take it! It just seems right to have key playoff matchups decided by the guys that got you here, doesn’t it? […]

For those who play in head-to-head leagues, it’s playoff time! The time when you’re looking for every edge you can get against your opponents. So, naturally, MLB teams are doing nothing to help you this week. I blame Rob Manfred. (I blame him for most things.) For one thing, this week’s slate of two start […]

We’ve made it to the final month of the season! If you’re still here rather than being entirely focused on football, congratulations! Both on your taste in sports, but also on your (presumably) successful season as you chase either roto or playoff glory. I am happy to report that this week has a fair number […]
