They polled 20 people in the game about the top 60 starting pitchers via Fangraphs WAR, plus Dallas Keuchel (who signed mid-season last year and thus didn’t make that top 60) and asked them to put each pitcher in a tier of Aces, Applicants (a player who may be capable of being an Ace, but isn’t quite there yet), Number 2/3 starters, and then everyone else.
The Cincinnati Reds have a deep rotation.
