There are several weeks each fantasy baseball season when it seems the pitching landscape is upside-down. The usually highly ranked pitchers struggle in easy matchups and the fringe pitchers have been throwing gems. As we enter week 10 we are in one of those rare periods of higher-than-normal uncertainty with most pitchers. In particular, the normally stable George Kirby, Framber Valdez, Pablo Lopez, and several other similarly ranked pitchers have seen their rankings dip far below normal levels this week. On the flip side, there are several pitchers who have gained higher-than-normal confidence ratings this week. We hope our weekly starting pitcher rankings help fantasy managers adequately adjust their rotation plans to account for recent pitching high and low streaks entering the new week.
