MLB Trends: Pitching Decline, Relievers to Starters
News summary

The recent seasons in MLB have seen a significant decline in the performance of 25-and-under starting pitchers, marking the worst for this age group in terms of fWAR. As the fantasy baseball season approaches its end, managers need to adopt a week-to-week strategy for starting pitchers, focusing on matchups to maximize their chances. The Washington Nationals may target veteran ace Blake Snell in free agency to bolster their young pitching staff. The Texas Rangers are struggling to replicate last year's success, having been swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks in a rematch of their World Series clash. Additionally, emerging trends in MLB see former relievers successfully transitioning to starting roles, exemplified by Reynaldo López's standout season for the Braves.
