Notes
	Paul Skenes lived up to the hype in 2025, overpowering hitters with elite velocity and swing-and-miss stuff while maintaining strong run prevention in his first extended MLB action. Sure, his record was 10-10, and he probably could have been a 20-game winner on almost any other team. His 2026 projections remain aggressive on strikeouts and ratios, and he is expected to pitch almost 200 innings after throwing 187 in 2025. The year-over-year takeaway is how quickly his command stabilized, limiting walks more than expected for a power arm. Skenes profiles as a high-impact fantasy SP1 whose value is driven by dominance rather than volume alone. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros	Sonny Gray was one of the only bright spots in the Cardinals' 2025 season. He started 32 games, threw 180 2/3 innings, and struck out 201 batters. His ERA was inflated at 4.28 with an expected of 3.90, but his FIP (3.39) suggests both of these numbers are high, and his xFIP is even lower at 3.06. Gray turns 36 this year, and projections have him profiled as more of an SP3 or SP4. Still, the move to Boston should give him more win equity, and he is worth consideration in the middle rounds.
