ANOTHER NEW NO. 1 IN LATEST SP POWER RANKINGS

ANOTHER NEW NO. 1 IN LATEST SP POWER RANKINGS
June 20th, 2024
MLB.com
Share
share-square-2
There's been a flip-flop at the top of the newest Starting Pitcher Power
Rankings.
Ranger Suárez, in the middle of a career year for the Phillies, has leapfrogged
Tigers ace Tarik Skubal for the No. 1 spot this week.
Suárez and Skubal have emerged as Cy Young frontrunners in each league in the
first half, so it's no surprise they're jockeying at 1-2 here. Skubal claimed
the top spot for the first time in the last edition of these power rankings, and
now Suárez is the new leader.
Here are this week's Starting Pitcher Power Rankings.
1. Ranger Suárez, Phillies (Last poll: 2)
Suárez continues to lead the way for the first-place Phillies, who have the best
record in the National League. After another strong start on Wednesday, the
left-hander is 10-1 with a 1.75 ERA and 95 strikeouts this season. Suárez leads
the Majors in wins -- he was the first to 10 in 2024 -- and ranks second in ERA
(the Braves' Reynaldo López just took the lead in the ERA race on Wednesday).
This is the third time a Phillies pitcher has topped our Starting Pitcher Power
Rankings, but the first time it's been Suárez -- Zack Wheeler was No. 1 in two
of our earlier polls.
2. Tarik Skubal, Tigers (1)
Skubal had a tough start against the Braves on Wednesday, but he's still having
a monster year for Detroit. The power-pitching lefty is 8-3 with a 2.50 ERA and
105 strikeouts, fourth-most in the Majors and second-most in the American
League. Skubal and Suárez both look like they'll be first-time All-Stars soon
enough.
3. Luis Gil, Yankees (4)
Gerrit Cole is finally back for the Yankees, but Gil did an incredible job
holding down the fort in the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner's absence. Gil
has done his best Cole impression all year: The 26-year-old is 9-1 with a 2.03
ERA and 96 strikeouts, and is leading the American League ERA race in his
breakout season.
4. Corbin Burnes, Orioles (5)
The Orioles' ace is on a roll. Burnes is 5-0 with a 1.40 ERA and 42 strikeouts
over his last seven starts, bringing his season stats to an 8-2 record, 2.14 ERA
and 89 K's. He trails only Gil in the AL ERA race and is in good shape to make
his fourth consecutive All-Star team -- but first as an AL pitcher after his
three with the Brewers from 2021-23.
5. Shota Imanaga, Cubs (9)
Imanaga is back in the top five after falling from No. 1 to No. 9 in the last
power rankings. That's because after allowing 12 runs in two starts vs. the
Brewers and White Sox, the lefty bounced back to beat the Reds and Cardinals in
his last two starts while allowing only three runs in 13 2/3 innings. Imanaga is
now 7-1 with a 1.89 ERA and 78 strikeouts in his rookie season, making him one
of three qualified starters with an ERA under two along with López and Suárez.

6. Zack Wheeler, Phillies (3)
Wheeler drops a few spots after allowing a season-high eight runs in his last
start, but the Phillies' ace has been dominant aside from that one blip. In his
previous five outings, Wheeler was 4-0 with a 1.57 ERA and 30 strikeouts. He,
Suárez and Aaron Nola have given Philadelphia one of the best rotation trios in
baseball.
7. Paul Skenes, Pirates (8)
Skenes is starting to overpower every team he's facing. The Pirates' electric
rookie is now 4-0 with a 2.29 ERA and 53 strikeouts in 39 1/3 innings through
his first seven big league starts. That's 12.1 K's per nine innings. Skenes'
triple-digit heat and wipeout splitter and slider make him a must-watch every
time he takes the mound.
8. Garrett Crochet, White Sox (not ranked)
Crochet is leading the AL with 116 strikeouts entering his start Wednesday night
against the Astros, and that's earned him a spot in the top 10 of this week's
power rankings. The 24-year-old southpaw has recorded back-to-back
double-digit-strikeout performances and has four games with 10 or more K's in
his last seven starts. And over his last nine starts, Crochet is 5-1 with a 1.36
ERA and 76 K's in 53 innings.
9. Tyler Glasnow, Dodgers (7)
The Dodgers flamethrower is at the top of the MLB strikeout leaderboard, with
125 K's. Glasnow's five games with double-digit strikeouts are the most of any
National League pitcher, and tied with Crochet for the Major League lead. His
12.1 K/9 is also the best in the NL and second to only Crochet (12.6) in the
Majors.
10. Tanner Houck, Red Sox (6)
Houck has been a quality start machine this season. He's pitched at least six
innings and held his opponent to three earned runs or fewer in 12 of his 15
starts, tied with Burnes, Logan Webb and Logan Gilbert for the most quality
starts in the Majors. The right-hander is tied with Burnes for the second-lowest
ERA in the AL at 2.14.
Others receiving votes: Seth Lugo (Royals), Chris Sale (Braves), Ronel Blanco
(Astros), Cole Ragans (Royals), Matt Waldron (Padres)
