2018 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Starting Pitchers, Part 3 (51-75)

This gets said most seasons, but starting pitching is incredibly deep. Between safe veteran options and up-and-coming young flamethrowers, there's a little bit of everything in this part of the rankings. I've always preached the depth of pitching while filling out your roster.

Last week was all about the outfielders in Dynasty Dugout. This week we switch away from offense and take a look at the players designed to limit it. You'll always have the truly elite pitchers that dominate each year, but there are a lot of pitchers who trend up and down each season. Trending Up Eduardo Rodriguez, Boston Red Sox Ever since Chris Sale arrived in Boston, Rodriguez has become a different pitcher. He’s working at a much quicker pace (similar to Sale) and really attacking hitters. Through 10 appearances…
