Episode notes
Strikeout Pitchers Gain Edge Over Win-Dependent Arms
- Pitching value narrows too: wins are only +2 and no QS bonus, so dominant strikeout pitchers gain relative value.
- Ariel and Frank note you need premium K pitchers rather than innings eaters who rely on wins.
Clump Closers Or Avoid Them
- Closers are valuable but volatile; saves are +5 so grouping closers can smooth weekly variance.
- Ariel suggests either draft zero/one or cluster three closers to balance week-to-week points.
Draft A Pitching Anchor Early
- Consider drafting at least one pitching anchor early to secure innings and strikeouts.
- Ariel picked Blake Snell/Brian Woo–type aces early to lock innings and K volume for a seven-pitcher roster.
