Week 10 Starts & Sits - All Starting Pitcher Matchups

Ellis Canady's recommended fantasy baseball starts and sits for all Week 10 starting pitcher matchups. Set your optimal SP lineups daily, and win big in 2020.

This is the last week of the season. You've taken routine stock of your position and are ready to take last-minute actions to improve your standings. If you cannot gain ground in saves and will not be holding the ratio line with relievers, scoop up as many serviceable starters as you can. In most leagues, nearly every two-start pitcher will be used just to accumulate stats. Welcome back to our starts/sits column for Week 10. We here at RotoBaller set out to ease your decision-making with our weekly starting pitcher matchups and recommendations. In case you missed it, this is our eighth year now writing this weekly column, helping fantasy baseball managers pick the best pitchers weekly.

Below are the projected starting pitching matchups for Week 10 -- September 21st through September 27th -- which will be updated as rotations are announced and modified. This column will make continuous adjustments for any postponements or rotation shuffles, reflecting official beat writer speculation for as many unconfirmed rotation slots as possible.

If you've got any questions about which pitchers can capitalize on a juicy matchup and which ones might be worth putting on the pine against a fierce offense, this is the weekly piece for you. For every week of the fantasy baseball season, we look to analyze all of the projected starting pitcher matchups and put together our optimal lineups. Here at RotoBaller, we believe that it is key to analyze every SP matchup, each and every week, to help determine which SPs to start/sit and to hopefully find some hidden gems to bolster your teams. Let's set those optimal lineups!

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

 

SP Matchups & Start/Sit Recommendations

This weekly piece considers the pitcher’s opponents, their outlook against lefties and righties, some ballpark factors, and historical splits. With all of this information, we then provide our start/sit recommendations for each starting pitcher matchup for the approaching week of fantasy baseball.

Each player will be valued with a Start/Sit recommendation. Additionally, you'll see a color-coded score behind the recommendation. Green and Red provide a strong vote of confidence in starting or sitting that player. Yellow identifies players that are on the fence in this writer's mind, but leaning either Start or Sit. You could determine your level of risk and make your own decisions.

Legend:

  • The players in italics are the ones set for two-start weeks
  • Openers will have an asterisk if no "true" starter is announced by team beat writers
  • Players that are grayed out are currently just projected starters, not confirmed

This chart is updated daily as more rotations/starters are announced, and is updated as of 9/26 at 1:05 am. This also includes any postponements due to weather, COVID, etc.
