Notes
	After eight years in Atlanta, Max Fried arrived in New York and did what the Yankees were hoping he would do. In 195 1/3 innings pitched, Fried ended with a 2.86 ERA and 1.10 WHIP while striking out 189 batters, the most in any season of his career. While his xERA was higher at 3.40, his FIP (3.07) and xFIP (3.41) suggest the 32-year-old has plenty left in the tank in 2026. Of his 32 starts, 20 of them qualified as quality, making him more valuable in leagues with that category. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros	Luis Castillo remains a reliable innings-eater, but his 2025 profile showed continued erosion in strikeout rate (21.7% K%) and rising hard contact (46.5% HardHit), limiting his fantasy ceiling. Projections reflect more of the same: solid ratios and workload, but middling strikeout totals compared to the top fantasy arms. Castillo is still a dependable rotation anchor in deeper formats, though fantasy managers should no longer pay for peak-era upside. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
		His age is increasing and his strikeout rate is plummeting - a disastrous combination for a pitcher. There are more talented, lively, and exciting arms being drafted behind him with more upside that I strongly prefer. Anthony Gambale - Roto Street Journal
