Notes
	Nathan Eovaldi delivered one of the most dominant seasons of his career in 2025, posting a microscopic 1.73 ERA with elite run suppression backed by a .194 opponent average and a career-best 26.0% strikeout rate. Durability remains the primary concern entering his age-36 season, but 2026 projections still view him as a high-quality rotation anchor with strong ratios and solid strikeout volume when healthy. In fantasy formats, Eovaldi profiles as an SP2 whose value hinges on workload but whose efficiency can meaningfully outperform his draft cost. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros	Zack Wheeler followed up his dominant 2024 with an even sharper skill set in 2025, posting a career-best 11.73 K/9 and 33.3% strikeout rate alongside a stellar 27.7% K-BB%. His 2.71 ERA was supported by a 2.48 xERA, though a spike to 1.14 HR/9 and a lofty 82.4% strand rate suggest some regression baked into that surface line. The question for Wheeler is how he will recover from the thoracic outlet surgery he underwent last season. Recovery is listed as 6 to 8 months, so the chances of him being ready for Opening Day are slim to none, but the latest report is that it "shouldn't be too long" after that. All of this makes him a high-risk, high-reward pitcher capable of being the SP1 he's been, but fantasy managers should count on some regression based on the injury and the fact that he will be 36 this season. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
