Marco Estrada has a tenuous hold on a rotation spot given his HR-fueled blowups. A closer look at his in-game skills suggests that nearly all of his problems have come the third time he goes through lineups.
Jake Odorizzi has a unique reverse LH/RH skill split; he owns some of the best skills of any SP against LH bats. Odorizzi could emerge quickly with a tweak against righties.
Collin McHugh has come out of nowhere to post a sub-3.50 ERA in the early-going. His strong skill support makes him an attractive pickup in deep leagues.
Brandon McCarthy's 5.00 ERA won't garner him much attention in most leagues. But his elite skills should, and they have been driven in part by a tweak in his pitch mix from last season.
