We’ve taken a position-by-position look at the upcoming free agent class at MLBTR in recent weeks. With the position players now all covered, we turn our attention to the starting pitching market.
Each winter, free agency offers a wide variety of starting pitching tiers. There are usually top-of-the-rotation stars, innings-eating types for the middle and back end, and reclamation projects who have shown well in the past but disappointed in their platform seasons. This offseason will be no exception.
Here are the rotation options slated to hit the open market in the coming weeks:
A Tier Unto Himself
Other Top of the Market Options
Former Cy Young Winners in their Mid/Late 30s
Mid-Rotation Arms in their Prime
Older Veterans/Back-of-the-Rotation Options
Rebound Hopefuls/Depth Options
Players with 2022 Club/Player Options
Previous installments in this series: catcher, first base, second base, third base, shortstop, center field, corner outfield
