The 2026 MLB regular season is in full-swing. There’s another jam-packed slate on the books for Wednesday, so there is no better time to dive right into the Daily Fantasy action. Pitchers are already ranked by price, with the ones who are projected to perform better eating up more of your budget, but I am here to add my two cents. I have my own DFS rankings for the top 10 starting pitchers in the nine-game Wednesday night contest that locks at 7:05 p.m. ET.
