Draft Advice: Tips on player picks and team-building.
#9016
As we gear up for the 2025 MLB season, the debate around the top pitchers in the game is heating up. With a fresh list of the best arms in baseball just released, it’s time to dive into some intriguing discussions.

First off, how do we feel about the placement of Jacob deGrom at number 10? Given his injury history, is it fair to rank him so high, or should we be more cautious? If he can stay healthy, could he reclaim his spot as the top pitcher in the league, or are we witnessing the twilight of his career?

Then there's the case of Sonny Gray at number 25. At 35, is he still a reliable option for fantasy teams, or is it time to look for younger talent? His consistent production is hard to ignore, but can he maintain that level of performance as age catches up?

Speaking of age, let’s talk about Aaron Nola. He’s been a workhorse, but with declining strikeout and walk rates, is he still a must-have in fantasy drafts? Or should we be looking at younger pitchers with higher upside?

And what about the breakout potential of Cole Ragans and Dylan Cease? Both have shown flashes of brilliance, but can they sustain that success over a full season? Are they worth the risk in your drafts, or do you prefer the safety of established veterans?

Lastly, let’s not forget about the relievers. Emmanuel Clase is touted as the best closer in the game right now. Do you agree with that assessment? How do you value closers in your fantasy leagues compared to starting pitchers?

Let’s hear your thoughts! Who do you think is overrated or underrated on this list? What bold predictions do you have for the upcoming season? Share your insights and let’s get the conversation rolling!
