As the halfway point of the baseball season nears, several starting pitchers have surprisingly excelled, emerging from low ADP positions to become top fantasy performers. This includes 10 starting pitchers ranked in the top-50 by value who initially had an ADP over 250. This development raises questions about their sustainability throughout the remainder of the season. Fantasy managers are encouraged to evaluate these players critically to determine who may be reliable moving forward, alongside a fun lightning round analysis of additional pitchers.
This season, seemingly more so than recently, has a number of starting pitchers who have popped up out of the ADP hinterlands to be unexpected fantasy stars.
There are currently 10 starting pitchers in the top-50 by total value according to the FanGraphs auction calculator who entered the season with a post-250 ADP.
The real question is if you can count on them to continue being so shiny, or whether their gold-plating will soon reveal a heart of rust.
If you have one of these secret aces, you're no doubt over the moon about it but we still have a lot of season left before you can hoist championship gold.
