Outlook Justin Wrobleski
Breakout lefty Justin Wrobleski remains a locked-in option for the first-place Dodgers.
The first-place Dodgers, sitting comfortably atop the NL West with a 43-25 record, have leaned heavily on Wrobleski, who has been sensational with a tiny 0.69 ERA and a 0.54 WHIP over his last 13 innings. With rotation mates like Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell sidelined on the injured list, his spot as a vital starter in the rotation is incredibly secure.
Wrobleski's current 2.64 ERA on the year is a massive step forward from last season's 4.21 mark, driven by a sharp 1.01 WHIP. While our rest-of-season model projects a more conservative 4.17 ERA, his improved control and analytical self-adjustments suggest he has permanently raised his floor.
Wrobleski is scheduled for a single start this week, taking the mound on the road today, June 11th, against the Pirates and Mitch Keller, who struggles with a 4.81 ERA. With the powerful Dodgers offense backing him and his own elite recent form, this is a prime matchup to exploit. Verdict: Start.

Outlook Brandon Young
Brandon Young's Hot Streak and Two-Start Week Make Him a Must-Start
Brandon Young is on a phenomenal run, posting a stellar 2.06 ERA and 0.84 WHIP over his last 14 days. The fourth-place Orioles (34-39) have leaned heavily on him due to a depleted rotation with Chris Bassitt, Zach Eflin, and Dean Kremer sidelined. Young has fully seized his opportunity, locking down a vital mid-rotation role.
Young's success has lowered his season ERA to 3.67, a massive improvement from last year's 6.45 mark. While our season projections of a 4.50 ERA and 1.32 WHIP warn of upcoming regression, his fastball dominance and splitter adjustments suggest these gains are real. Fantasy managers should confidently ride his hot hand.
Young is lined up for a highly valuable two-start week, facing Seattle's Logan Gilbert on June 16 and the Dodgers' Emmet Sheehan on June 21. Our models project him to toss 12.1 innings with a 2.99 ERA and 8.8 strikeouts across these matchups. He is a premier starting option for the week ahead.
