Several pitchers have been outperforming their SIERA. Some good, some not so good, but the results have been favorable. I dug a little deeper in a few starting pitchers in my latest at RotoGraphs fantasy.fangraphs.com/starting-pit...

My second fantasy baseball article RotoGraphs covers five rookie hitters. A somewhat deep look into their profiles and whether to buy, sell, or hold in different formats. I even adjusted my priors on a certain player. fantasy.fangraphs.com/rookie-check...

I finally updated the spreadsheet to include updated NFL Draft capital for the 2026 rookies at the running back, wide receiver, and tight end positions. See which RB, WR, and TE rose and fell in projected draft capital and their adjusted scores based on tons of inputs. Free to read at my Substack⤵️

This led me to digging into Spencer Strider possibly avoiding that peak velocity band of 97-100 mph. In 2025, Strider had 3.5% of his pitches were 97+ to 100mph (small sample), compared to 36.2% in 2023.

There have been notes that Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider has been working on his fastball shape after the velocity was at 93 and 94 mph earlier in February.
