Starting pitcher rankings for Saturday, May 13

Pitchers to stream

Reid Detmers, Los Angeles Angels — Detmers’ top-line numbers aren’t pretty, but he’s deserved better results than he’s gotten this year. The lefty has one of the best sliders of any starter in baseball, his 19.1% difference between his K rate and walk rate ranks among the highest in the league and his expected ERA is more than a full run lower than his actual number. He’ll get to go up against a Cleveland Guardians lineup that’s struggled all year, and if he fine-tunes his command just a little bit he offers big strikeout upside.

Hayden Wesneski, Chicago Cubs — Speaking of great sliders: Wesneski throws his over 30 percent of the time, and it’s helped him allow just one run in each of his last three outings. His fastball is still a bit of a problem, but Target Field (and a weak Minnesota Twins lineup) should help him suppress the long ball and turn in a quality start.

And now, without further ado, here are your full starting pitcher rankings for fantasy baseball on Saturday, May 13.
