MLB Starting Pitcher Rankings - 2007
1)  Johan Santana (Min)
Santana’s been the best pitcher for the last three seasons. Last season, he won the triple crown of pitching with 19 wins, a 2.77 ERA, and 245 strikeouts. The only pitcher worth drafting in the first round.
2)  Chris Carpenter (STL)
The Cardinals ace put up another good season. He faded in the last few starts, and that likely cost him another Cy Young award.
3)  Carlos Zambrano (CHC)
The animated Zambrano topped 200 strikeouts in 2006. Zambrano has a higher WHIP then desired. His contract year could land him and his fantasy owners a big payoff.
4)  Roy Oswalt (Hou)
With Andy Pettitte gone and Roger Clemens likely to follow, Oswalt is the only stabilizing force in the Houston rotation. Roy was able to post another sub-3.00 ERA. With better run support this year from new addition Carlos Lee and Lance Berkman, 20 wins is a reasonable goal.
5)  Roy Halladay (Tor)
A solid anchor of any fantasy rotation.
6)  Brandon Webb (Ari)
Finally realized his potential last season.
7)  Roger Clemens (FA)
Expecting him to join the Yankees and win 10+ games in the second half.
8)  John Smoltz (Atl)
Showing no signs of aging.
9)  Aaron Harang (Cin)
Strikeout machine.
10)  Jake Peavy (SD)
Hoping for a rebound season.
11)  Mike Mussina (NYY)
12)  Jason Schmidt (LAD)
13)  Barry Zito (SF)
Not worth $18 million for 7 years, but solid fantasy player.
14)  John Lackey (LAA)
15)  Justin Verlander (Det)
16)  Jered Weaver (LAA)
Young, promising pitcher with the stuff to dominate hitters.

18)  Curt Schilling (Bos)
19)  Brett Myers (Phi)
20)  Jeremy Bonderman (Det)
21)  Andy Pettitte (NYY)
22)  Daisuke Matsuzaka (Bos)
