Marcus Holds Rays To A Stroman Numeral of I

The easiest thing you can do is put together an incredible fantasy pitching staff with only pitchers you drafted after 200 overall. It's not just in hindsight. You could've blindly grabbed guys after 200. It's easier to put together a staff after 200th overall draft than from the top 20 starters. Jon Gray? Don't mind if I do! Patrick Sandoval? Sure! Sonny Gray? Okay! Andrew Heaney? Sure, I'll take the occasional blow up! Hunter Brown? Why not? Jose Berrios? Yes. Nathan Eovaldi? Absolutely. Alex Cobb? Yes. Martin Perez? I've seen worse. Merrill Kelly? Absolutely. Marcus Stroman? He just threw one-hitter vs. the Rays and has a 2.59 ERA. (He added in 8 Ks in that one-hitter with one walk too.) Know how I chose those eleven starters after 200th overall? I went to the ADP of 200 overall and took 11 of the next 14 starters from 200 overall to 268. 11 of the 14 starters after pick 200 are doing great. 11 of 14! On the other hand, five of the top 10 starters overall are garbage! DeGrom, Nola, Woodruff, Verlander, and Sandy. Your mileage can vary with Gerrit, Burnes and Strider, but let's say they were worth it. After the top 10? The next three were Scherzer, Cease and Bieber. Wow! It makes so much sense to draft starters high I cannot take it. I am brimming with sarcasm, if you can't tell. 11 of 14 starters after 200 overall were solid; five of the top 10 are iffy at best. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
