The Top Options
Today looks a lot different than yesterday on the mound. We have aces galore on this Sunday, and there is no shortage of top arms to choose from. Here’s a look at all the aces we have going this afternoon.
(NOTE – For now, all statistical references for pitchers are for 2022 full season data given that we still only have two starts for 2023 for most of them. I will probably switch to 2023 data in a week or two).
