The workhorse starting pitchers are becoming harder to find, as just five pitchers hit the benchmark of 200 innings pitched last season. In 1983, that mark was 50 pitchers. As recently as 2013, 34 pitchers hit that magic number. Those starting pitchers who make 30-plus starts a year are incredibly valuable, and when they have a strikeout rate like Spencer Strider and they can be drafted in the range with power hitters like Matt Olson and Yordan Álvarez.
