ROTISSERIE: SANTANA Plan anchors for 2019—Part I
Mar 20 2019
The Santana Plan is a roster construction strategy that advocates buying one elite starting pitcher with high R$ over the past two seasons using a custom valuation based on strikeouts, IP, xERA and xWHIP. We also look for a high R$ using strikeouts, IP, actual ERA and actual WHIP during at least one of the prior two seasons.
Entering the 2019 season, our Santana Plan anchors are Max Scherzer (RHP, WAS), Jacob deGrom (RHP, NYM), Chris Sale (LHP, BOS), Corey Kluber (RHP, CLE), Luis Severino (RHP, NYY) and Zack Greinke (RHP, ARI). Carlos Carrasco (RHP, CLE) is an honorable mention because his actual results fell just below our Santana Plan filters, but he still made the skills portion of the filters for 2017 and 2018.
