Greene getting this start is legitimately exciting for him and the Reds organization, and he is one of the most electric pitchers in the game when his stuff is on. It's a big vote of confidence. However, at the end of the day, this game is still Reds vs. Pirates. This is the eighth year in a row the Pirates won't have a repeat starter, and the nint...
No, Ohtani fatigue is not the reason this matchup is coming in so low. It's the opposition he's facing. From the Oakland lineup to a vote of confidence in Muller, who was part of the Sean Murphy return, there is just nothing intriguing in this matchup outside of the best players in the world.
Kyle Gibson and Corey Kluber are both new additions to their teams, so there isn't a legacy aspect to this one. John Means is recovering from Tommy John surgery for the Orioles, whereas Chris Sale will start the second game of the season on April 1 at Fenway Park. That leaves Gibson and Kluber, two pitchers who, while past their prime, offer respec...
Snell had, in a word, a weird season last year. The Padres dealer finished below .500 yet again despite finishing above league average in ERA+. Joe Musgrove is nursing a foot injury and Yu Darvish is still ramping up from his World Baseball Classic travels, leaving Snell as the best option. Marquez, meanwhile, starts over Kyle Freeland, another WBC...
The Nationals are kind of stuck with regards to Corbin. He has two years left on his six-year, $140 million deal, and he looked broken last season. However, with the money Corbin is making and the other options on the Nationals staff, he is kind of the de facto starter for the second year in a row. No disrespect to Fried in this ranking. It's just ...
The Tigers and Eduardo Rodriguez are looking to put last year behind them, with Rodriguez leaving the team for an extended period of time to tend to personal matters. Detroit's big 2022 free agent signing was OK when he did pitch, but not overwhelming. Shane McClanahan, meanwhile, was outstanding in his sophomore season, posting a 2.54 ERA and an E...
Corbin Burnes was still excellent last year, keeping his ERA under 3.00 for the season while playing for a team that struggled throughout much of the year. He's in an odd spot with the Brewers, as his arbitration hearing with the team this year seemingly damaged their relationship. But that won't stop him from being a top-tier MLB pitcher this year...
Pablo Lopez was a big get for the Twins, who entered the offseason in desperate need of starting pitching. They landed Lopez for a hefty price, and they expect his devastating changeup to give them a true ace this year. For Lopez, it's a change of scenery from Miami, where he was overshadowed by Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara. Greinke is a legacy ...
We're firmly in "all matchups are fun" territory from here on out, beginning with the Yankees hosting the Giants. Cole is getting his fourth straight Opening Day start for New York, after a very good 2022 postseason. His numbers haven't always caught up to how good he's been in New York, but expectations are lofty in the Bronx this year. Webb, mean...
Another interleague matchup comes just outside the top five, as Miles Mikolas and the Cardinals host Alek Manoah and the Blue Jays. Manoah, a 2022 All Star, gets his first Opening Day start after starting Game 1 of the Wild Card round against Seattle last year. Mikolas just had a showing for Team USA at the World Baseball Classic, and he'll look to...
