As always, remember that rotations are subject to change, so if you see something that looks incorrect, assume that it was a change that occurred since this was written and feel free to politely bring it up in the comments, I'll let you know where the new arm slots.

For the week July 27 - Aug. 2

Rank	Pitcher	Opp	Comments
1	David Price	at TB, at BAL	Seen it suggested more than once that Price "hasn't been that good this year" ... huh? 7th-best ERA in 5th-most IP
2	Chris Sale	at BOS	Human status confirmed with just 6 Ks in two of his last three as well as 2 HRs allowed in each of those 6-K outings
3	Sonny Gray	at LAD, CLE	Ks have come in waves this year: 18% in first five, 27% in next nine, and 16% in last six; another surge coming?
4	Felix Hernandez	ARI
5	Dallas Keuchel	ARI	28% K rate since dropping 11 in CWS shutout, only five arms better (Sale, Kershaw 37%, Archer, Scherzer 30%, MadBum 29%)
6	Corey Kluber	KC
7	Chris Archer	DET
8	Carlos Carrasco	at OAK	Has yet to go more than four starts with out a 5+ ER dud; currently riding a "streak" of two since his 4 IP/5 ER vs. HOU on July 6th
9	Masahiro Tanaka	at TEX, at CWS	The HRs (1.7 HR/9) are really scary but 0.99 WHIP limits traffic and Ks are still there, too
10	Jeff

10	Jeff Samardzija	at BOS, NYY
11	Hisashi Iwakuma	ARI, at MIN
12	Anibal Sanchez	at TB, at BAL	Scarier version of Tanaka because he's allowed many more base runners with a similar HR problem; 7-0 in L8 some of which is owed to offense
13	Jose Quintana	at BOS
14	Garrett Richards	at HOU
15	Scott Kazmir	LAA	Did have a sharp home/road split with OAK, but K-BB% is nearly identical at 15%/14%; he'll be fine (plan for a 3.10ish ERA)
16	Danny Salazar	at OAK
17	Jake Odorizzi	DET	Tough first inning and being lifted for a PH in Philly kept him from a much better outing
18	Ervin Santana	PIT	Did you know that Santana isn't eligible for the postseason as part of his PED suspension?
19	Erasmo Ramirez	at BOS
20	Lance McCullers Jr.	LAA
21	Kyle Gibson	SEA	His line from LAA (5 IP/6 ER) can be misleading: he was BABIP'd to death with 10 singles (several of them trash) and then bullpen allows 4
22	Hector Santiago	at LAD
23	Andrew Heaney	at LAD
24	Eduardo Rodriguez	TB	Rained out Sunday night and then smashed on Monday afternoon makeup; three awful starts have erased the greatness of his other seven
25	Michael Pineda	at TEX	The most infuriating pitcher of the season: regularly has excellent stuff and skills, but five outings of 5+ ER (4 on road) have crushed him
26	Nate Karns	DET, at BOS
27	C.J. Wilson	at HOU, at LAD
28	Edinson Volquez	at CLE, at TOR	Has been better than 2014 despite slight jumps in ERA, WHIP once you account for a tougher league
29	Collin McHugh	LAA, ARI
30	Wade Miley	CWS, TB	When you've got an ERA north of 5.00 into June, it's tough to shave it down so his 3.33 ERA in his last 8 might go unnoticed
31	Wei-Yin Chen	DET	No one told the DET offense they lost their best player: league-leading offense since Miguel Cabrera went on the DL
32	Nathan Eovaldi	at CWS	Just removing the 0.7 IP/8 ER massacre at MIA from his line takes him from 4.33 to 3.76 ERA; has a 2.97 ERA in 33.3 IP since that MIA meltdown
33	Marco Estrada	KC
34	Yovani Gallardo	NYY	Fortunate to have just a 3.80 ERA in July with 15 BBs and just 10 Ks in 21.3 IP of work
35	Justin Verlander	at TB	Loss in BOS after strong JV effort wasn't as bad the one in MIN, but still another wasted performance from Verlander
36	Taijuan Walker	at MIN
37	Chris Tillman	ATL	Has allowed just 5 ER in his last five starts
38	Miguel Gonzalez	DET
39	Ubaldo Jimenez	ATL, DET	Two nightmares in a row has many worrying that old Ubaldo is back, I've been pretty suspect from the start to be honest
40	Tommy Milone	SEA	Had allowed just 9 ER in seven starts before 5 ER (seven runs total) in his last outing
41	Drew Hutchison	KC
42	Kevin Gausman	ATL, DET	The lack of depth in the AL is probably the biggest reason he's here; we've seen the talent in flashes, but he's still very inconsistent
43	Trevor Bauer	KC, at OAK
44	Chris Young	at CLE, at TOR	The scary thing about using him on your team is you're never surprised when he's hammered, regardless of opponent
45	Mike Montgomery	ARI, at MIN
46	R.A. Dickey	PHI	Now has a 3.32 ERA in 65 IP since the start of June; skills are light in that time, but I'm still willing to give him a go vs. PHI
47	Phil Hughes	SEA	Has allowed four or fewer ER in each of his last nine starts, but hasn't topped 5 Ks in any of them so it's still just too much contact
48	Jesse Chavez	CLE
49	J.A. Happ	at MIN
50	Mark Buehrle	KC	Can you get a negative strikeout total? If so, Buehrle's 12% vs. KC might just do it somehow

SIT

Rank	Pitcher	Opp	Comments
51	CC Sabathia	at TEX
52	Rick Porcello	CWS	Hasn't been crushed in three straight, but his longest such streak this year is four leaving me fearful of trusting him
53	Yordano Ventura	at TOR	Probably didn't learn much from his demotion which last all of one day because of Jason Vargas' injury
54	Alfredo Simon	at BAL
55	Kendall Graveman	CLE
56	Jered Weaver	at HOU
57	Ivan Nova	at TEX, at CWS	Don't be misled by the 3.34 ERA, it's due to surge upward if his skills don't improve by a lot and very soon
58	Cody Anderson	KC, at OAK	Regression, meet Cody; Cody, meet regression ... . Oh no, regression, don't do tha--- 10 H in 2.7 IP later, Anderson was lucky to allow just 4 ER
59	Martin Perez	NYY, SF
60	Chris Bassitt	CLE	Has 9 total Ks in his first three starts of the season; 28 pitchers have at least three starts of 9+ Ks this year
61	Scott Feldman	ARI
62	Carlos Rodon	NYY	I'm not sure what a pitcher could really do to outrun a 1.66 WHIP
63	Joe Kelly	CWS, TB
64	Matt Harrison	NYY, SF	Six shutout IP in Coors was a fun little sleight of hand, but I need more to buy in here
65	Danny Duffy	at TOR
66	Nick Martinez	SF	Easy calls are easy: ERA has jumped 1.15 runs in his L3 starts (9.72 ERA)
67	Colby Lewis	NYY
68	Drew Pomeranz	at LAD
69	Matt Moore	at BOS	I think you're best off ignoring him until 2016
70	Mike Pelfrey	PIT, SEA

START

Rank	Pitcher	Opp	Comments
1	Clayton Kershaw	OAK	From PVM No. 7: "Still not overwhelming the opposition, but also still zero reason to worry about anything;" since: 1.52 ERA, 119 Ks in 89 IP
2	Zack Greinke	LAA	Greinke, Kershaw in July: 0.16 ERA in 56 IP with 68 Ks and 3 BBs
3	Max Scherzer	at MIA	This is about the closest he'll come to a slump with two 5 ER in his last four, but he allowed 3 ER in 14.7 IP during the other two
4	Gerrit Cole	at CIN
5	Jacob deGrom	WAS
6	Jake Arrieta	at MIL	Had a 6 BB outing vs. CLE on 6/16, since then: 0.96 ERA, 0.66 WHIP, 44 Ks, and 6.3 K:BB ratio in 46.7 IP
7	Matt Harvey	WAS	Has 13 BBs in his last three starts (4.26 ERA); had 13 BBs in the 10 previous starts combined (3.29 ERA)
8	Noah Syndergaard	SD, WAS	Top 20 in K% and K-BB%; top 30 in ERA among starts with 70+ IP; elite skills already, IP are the only real 2015 concern
9	Lance Lynn	CIN, COL
10	Jose Fernandez	WAS, SD	It looks perfect right now ... just as it did for Harvey after four starts; I'd sell Fernandez in a redraft league for profit now
11	Madison Bumgarner	at TEX	After finishing 7.3 IP or more in all five June starts, he's failed to complete 6 IP in any of his three July starts
12	Johnny Cueto	PIT
13	Michael Wacha	COL	COL hasn't been as anemic on the road this year, but they still sit 21st vs. RHP away from Coors
14	Carlos Martinez	COL
15	Cole Hamels	ATL	Last week that we (and he ... which is probably even more important) have to deal with looming trade rumors
16	James Shields	at NYM, at MIA
17	John Lackey	CIN, COL
18	A.J. Burnett	at CIN	Approaching trade deadline means Burnett could have a much lesser CIN offense on his hands (Byrd, Bruce among those rumored)
19	Francisco Liriano	at MIN
20	Jason Hammel	at MIL	Arrieta, Hammel are good enough to overcome, but I'd be remiss if I didn't note MIL as the top O vs. RHP in L30 days (.869 OPS)
21	Shelby Miller	at PHI	Struggles more perceived than real: bad 1st inn. vs. WAS and a rough go in COL; even with those, he has 4.03 ERA, 33 Ks in L4 starts (22.3 IP)
22	Tyson Ross	at NYM	King of the bad innings as one frame usually contains bulk of damage against him; still hasn't allowed >4 ER in any start
23	Jon Lester	COL
24	Jordan Zimmermann	at MIA	Remember when Jered Weaver had that spike K% year and we thought it was a harbinger? Seems to be the case JZ's 2014
25	Andrew Cashner	at NYM
26	Mat Latos	SD
27	Joe Ross	at NYM	Not terribly different than brother Tyson, trading stuff for polish; Joe's stuff is still good, but not as devastating big bro
28	Gio Gonzalez	at NYM
29	Mike Leake	at STL, PIT	A season in three parts: 2.36 ERA in first 7, 12.86 ERA in next 3, 2.91 ERA in last 10; which do you think is the outlier?
30	Kyle Hendricks	COL, at MIL	Topped a 6% SwStr rate once in first five starts, has been under 8% just 3x in L13 starts good for a 9% rate (which matches league avg.)
31	Julio Teheran	at BAL, at PHI
32	Jaime Garcia	CIN	Slated to return from groin inj.; his retun just means we go back to waiting for him to get hurt again unfortuantely; good while healthy
33	Patrick Corbin	at SEA	I've gushed about MIL's surging offense which makes Corbin's 7 IP/1 ER effort with 10 Ks against them even more impressive
34	Jimmy Nelson	at SF	Back-to-back double-digit-hit games June 13 and 16, but a 2.53 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 39 IP since with 32 Ks
35	Mike Fiers	at SF	Had a 5.00 ERA after May 12th start, but has slowly worked it down with a 3.43 ERA in his L13 (76 IP); don't overreact to his volatility
36	Matt Cain	MIL
37	Ian Kennedy	at MIA	Few, if any, parks suppress HRs better than MIA's; can Kennedy's 2.1 HR/9 get out of there unscathed? I'll bet yes
38	Dan Haren	WAS
39	Taylor Jungmann	CHC	More intrigued with each outing; these aren't 2.04 ERA skills, but can easily be 3.54 skills with a low-3.00s upside even as LOB% regresses
40	Aaron Nola	ATL	Sharp debut against anemic Rays (27th vs. RHP); gets equally anemic Braves (22nd) this time; a must-own because of the upside
41	Chris Heston	MIL, at TEX	MIL scored 101 R in 28 June games; have scored 102 R in 18 July games so far; TEX is third vs. RHP in L30 days (.828 OPS)
42	Brett Anderson	OAK, LAA
43	Rubby De LA Rosa	at HOU	When deciding on Rubby, you have to assess how fearsome his opponent's lefties are: his .967 OPS vs. them is baseball's worst
44	Robbie Ray	at SEA, at HOU
45	Alex Wood	at BAL, at PHI
46	Mike Bolsinger	LAA
47	Jeremy Hellickson	at HOU	13% SwStr rate since start of June; two bad starts yield a meager 4.60 ERA, but 25% K, 5% BB offer encouragment
48	Tom Koehler	WAS
49	Jorge De La Rosa	at CHC, at STL	His 1.93 road ERA is tough to fully believe in, but the 3.73 FIP isn't that bad; plus he brings some cheap Ks
50	Jon Gray	at CHC, at STL	Speculation is that he'll come up Tuesday; if true, pedigree, potential make him must-add even with Coors risk
51	Jon Niese	SD	The SD offense is worth streaming against, unfortunately the NYM/MIA offenses aren't exactly primed to give these three a cheap W

SIT

Rank	Pitcher	Opp	Comments
52	David Phelps	SD
53	Bartolo Colon	SD	He and Phil Hughes are cases for K-BB% over K:BB ratio; they're 5th, 6th in K:BB, but 29th, 59th in K-BB%
54	Zach Godley	at SEA	Brilliant debut vs. MIL - the team I won't shut up about in this PVM, but I'm still suspect of a 25 y/o who spent most of his year in A+
55	Jeff Locke	at CIN	A constant Locke tease, he'll smash you with a 4 IP/6 ER just as you start to gain confidence
56	Anthony DeSclafani	at STL
57	Matt Wisler	at PHI	Definitely learning on the job, but that breeds a level of volatility that can be really dangerous, espec. in tight ERA battles
58	Manny Banuelos	at BAL
59	Jake Peavy	MIL	Solid enough return vs. OAK on July 25th, but MIL's surging offense and his general medicority make this an easy pass
60	Kyle Lohse	at SF, CHC	Seeing some "I told you sos" on Lohse; can you call I told you so after four really strong seasons?
61	Raisel Iglesias	at STL, PIT	How badly do you need Ks?
62	Charlie Morton	at MIN, at CIN	He is about 2 swings-and-misses per game away from being really good; sounds simple, but it's the difference between a 6%, 9% rate
63	Doug Fister	at MIA	Name value might get you a nibble in some leagues, but if not, just cut him for flavor of the week
64	Adam Morgan	at TOR, ATL
65	Tim Hudson	at TEX	I feel like the second I bury him, he'll run off 8 straight gems or something, but I'm still gonna bury him
66	Odrisamer Despaigne	at MIA
67	David Buchanan	ATL
68	Dallas Beeler	COL, at MIL	Beeler was sent back down and Wada is rehabbing, so it's unclear exactly who will fill the fifth spot this week
69	Eddie Butler	at CHC
70	Jerome Williams	at TOR
71	Chris Rusin	at STL
72	Michael Lorenzen	PIT
73	Matt Garza	CHC
74	Kyle Kendrick	at STL

99	R.A. Dickey	PHI	Now has a 3.32 ERA in 65 IP since the start of June; skills are light in that time, but I'm still willing to give him a go vs. PHI
100	Phil Hughes	SEA	Has allowed four or fewer ER in each of his last nine starts, but hasn't topped 5 Ks in any of them so it's still just too much contact
