The Baller Ranks: Weekly Top 101 Starting Pitcher Rankings

Nick Mariano's Baller Ranks is a weekly fantasy baseball rankings list for the top 101 starting pitchers. He ranks and analyzes updated pitcher values for Week 13.

The final week of June approaches and Rob Manfred has decided it's a great time to turn pitching on its head. Let's check all of our arms for illegal substances as we update my weekly Starting Pitcher Baller Ranks, where I take stock of my top 101 SPs moving forward. We're about halfway into the season so I've changed the visible stats on my table to display numbers from May 20-June 20 for more relevant intel from the past month. So the "EV" below is Earned Value via Fangraphs for that period.

Click the link! This google sheet accompanies the table below and adds relevant 5x5 stats, K%, BB%, BABIP, FIP, xFIP, SIERA, ERA-FIP, and CSW%. Do note that I leave off most injured players, and removing those injured players can give an illusion that others have risen despite mediocre performances. I highly encourage you to click the link.

To be clear, these Rest of Season ranks are geared towards traditional 5x5 leagues sans most injured SPs, lest a return is imminent. If 25% of the board is on the IL, then it isn't terribly actionable, and I'll intermittently weave in updates of where I'd throw them in if they were healthy. For now, let's dive into my Top 101 SPs and be sure we've got the best rotation possible.

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