As we gear up for the 2025 fantasy baseball season, the spotlight is on the St. Louis Cardinals' pitching rotation, particularly Sonny Gray and Erick Fedde. Both pitchers have intriguing projections, but they come with their own sets of questions and concerns.
Sonny Gray had a remarkable 2024 season, boasting a 30% strikeout rate and a solid ERA. However, can he maintain that level of performance? Many analysts are skeptical about his ability to replicate such a high strikeout rate, especially with hitters likely adjusting to his backdoor sinker. What do you think? Is Gray a safe bet as an SP #3/#4, or are you wary of potential regression?
On the other hand, Erick Fedde has been a consistent performer, but his projections for 2025 suggest a slight dip in performance. With a projected ERA of 4.15, is he still worth considering for your fantasy roster? How do you weigh consistency against potential upside when drafting pitchers like Fedde?
Let’s also talk about the broader implications of the Cardinals' rotation. With the addition of new talent and the expected stability from players like Nolan Arenado, how do you see the Cardinals' pitching staff shaping up this season? Are there any under-the-radar pitchers in their rotation that you believe could surprise us?
Share your thoughts, bold predictions, and any experiences you’ve had with these pitchers in past seasons. Let’s dive deep into the fantasy implications of the Cardinals' rotation for 2025!
