With Opening Day behind us and the MLB season starting to ramp up into full gear, there have been no shortage of highlights and drama thus far. Not only that, fantasy managers are parsing through their squads each day, making sure they are optimized for maximum success. However, it could be hard to know which players to start on any given day, especially for managers looking to start the week strong.

Our MLB Season Tools can help make the decision-making process much easier. Featuring a vast array of helpful tools -- from Dynasty Rankings, Daily and Weekly Projections to the Trade Analyzer and many more -- we’re confident our 2022 season tools are the sharpest we have ever provided.

Today, we’re taking a look at the Start/Sit tool. The Start/Sit tool allows you to insert up to five players and examine either their Season or Daily projections, as seen below with two outfielders and two pitchers.

Have a look:

As you can see, San Francisco Giants OF Mike Yastrzemski and Los Angeles Angels OF Brandon Marsh are relatively close in terms of their daily projected points. Meanwhile, Angels pitcher Michael Lorenzen and Giants pitchers Alex Wood are set to start their first games of the season. Their daily projections are vastly different but this demonstrates how this tool can be helpful for managers.
