Weekly Pitcher Rankings: Top Pitchers This Week

Weekly Pitcher Rankings

As the month draws to an end, let's take a look at the factors affecting scoring, hence how aggressive we should be with selecting pitchers:

Month	R/G	HR%	BABIP	wOBA	K%	BB%	SB%
Mar/Apr	4.51	2.8%	0.291	0.314	22.2%	9.6%	76.6%
May	4.30	2.8%	0.283	0.309	21.9%	8.8%	73.6%
Jun	4.68	3.5%	0.293	0.323	22.3%	8.6%	78.7%

As expected, warmer temperatures promoted more home runs, with scoring coming along for the ride. Pitchers must have a better grasp of the ABS system as walks are declining. May looks like an anomaly with such a low BABIP. It's also interesting to note that stolen base success rate is on the rise, perhaps because players thrown out earlier in the season aren't attempting as many swipes.

As always, these rankings will be refreshed Sunday night.
