Tiering signals where the biggest drop-offs are at a position so that you can determine the most optimal time to draft said position. Players whose impact is essentially the same are bundled together, revealing at a glance how many alike choices remain. With every position’s tiers in hand, you can know during the heat of the draft which position to target next by identifying the one whose active tier is closest to depletion.
Below are the starting pitcher tiers for 2025, once again showing a position defined by a large mass of similarly impactful players. But while last year’s mass was unenticing for Fantasy purposes (coming to be known as “the glob”), this year’s is much more capable (coming to be known as … “the good glob”). The tiers have been renamed to match.
