This article is part of our Weekly Pitcher Rankings series.
As always, remember that rotations are subject to change, so if you see something that isn't correct, assume that it was a change that has occurred since this was written and feel free to politely bring it up in the comments, and I'll let you know where the new arm slots.
No commentary for the short weekend because the full-week edition is still coming out Saturday, which will also identify some of my favorite pickups who I see surging in the second half.
