Starts and Sits - All Starting Pitcher Matchups for Fantasy Baseball (June 23 - June 29)

Kris Bubic - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Nick's fantasy baseball starts/sits, expert advice for all starting pitcher matchups for June 23 - June 29 (2025). Set your winning fantasy baseball lineups.

It's time to head back to the mound with our starting pitcher starts/sits for fantasy baseball Week 13 - Monday, June 23 through Sunday, June 29. This column supplies readers with who is pitching, the opponent, and a confidence/startability score based on a plethora of metrics. Keep us bookmarked and favorited for every start/sit option and two-start choice for the season.

For 13 years running, we have been writing this Starting Pitcher Starts and Sits series weekly here at RotoBaller. I'm Nick Mariano, and I'll coach us through the 2025 season. All types of firepower go into bringing you this piece each week, as we provide a beloved series for our readers.

New readers should be sure to read the section below to learn the column's goal and how best to use this tool, while experienced RotoBallers can proceed to the guide. We wish you the best of luck with your fantasy baseball starting pitcher lineup decisions as we all look to gain every advantage we can get. And remember that only you know how badly your team needs particular category juice beyond a one-size-fits-all score.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup 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 inspire confidence (or lack thereof) in your decisions to start or sit certain pitchers.

Please note that beyond the usual "Start" and "Sit" labels, we've expanded on the old "context-dependent" section to break it down further with "Lean Sit," "Lean Start," and true 50/50 "Coin Flip" designations. 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, or actionable arms who may return from the injured list or be called up. Still, some situations are fluid, and we update ASAP to reflect accurate information. The early season means plenty of jostling around as injuries crop up and managers settle into routines, so check back frequently!

The "starts" category includes pitchers you'd likely start in every league. The "sits" are pitchers you likely sit in every league.

The 40-60 range will mean it is close, and it's up to you to decide based on your league settings or team needs (wins, strikeouts, etc.), how deep your league is, which roto/points categories are scored, and so on.

Here are your starts and sits for what we're calling Week 13 of the fantasy season, which covers June 23 through June 29. Who will you send to the mound this week?

 

Week 13 Start/Sit Recommendations (June 23 - June 29)

Updated start/sit recommendations for this week's MLB games. This chart is updated daily as probable starters are constantly changing with postponements, injuries, etc. Scroll down further for a color-coded chart.
