Week 10 Start/Sit: MLB Starting Pitcher (SP) Matchups

By Keith Allison from Owings Mills, USA (Clayton Kershaw Uploaded by Muboshgu) [CC-BY-SA-2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia CommonsLike many other weeks, there are some obvious two start pitchers going with great matchups. There are also some sneakier starting pitcher sleepers and streamers who may be available off the waiver wire based on your league depth, including NL-Only and AL-Only leagues. We are here to analyze each starting pitcher matchup for Week 10 of the MLB season, and help determine your optimal lineups including which SPs to start/sit.

All of Week 10's projected pitching matchups are listed below for each of this week's MLB games. We will attempt to consider the pitching performances to date this year, the SP opponents this week, how they've performed against the opponent, split stats against the team and other factors that may be relevant. We then provide our Week 10 start/sit recommendations for  each starting pitcher matchup.

Choosing which SPs to start or sit is a critical factor for the success of your fantasy teams. Benching a pitcher that gets lit up can be a deciding factor in weekly or head-to-head formats. In seasonal leagues, and in daily league formats, we must be even more vigilant and prepare each of our daily lineups with care. Good luck this week RotoBallers!

 

SP Matchups & Start/Sit Recommendations

Editor’s Note: our fantasy baseball waiver wire pickups list is updated each and every day. RotoBaller's writers provide analysis and recommendations on starting pitchers to consider off the wire, in addition to all other position players. Don't forget to download our free waiver wire iPhone app, and stay updated anywhere with all of our waiver wire analysis.
