Weekly Pitcher Rankings: London Calling

Weekly Pitcher Rankings: London Calling

This article is part of our Weekly Pitcher Rankings series.

The Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets are heading across the pond for the 2024 London Series. They'll travel on Thursday and Friday, then play a "home and home" series on Saturday and Sunday.

Last season, the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs split the London Series. After playing extremely hitter friendly, London Stadium was renovated before last season's pair of games, with the venue still favorable for bats, but not to the same extreme. Great American Ballpark is a reasonable comp. Last season, the scores were 9-1 Cubs and 7-5 Cardinals. 

The rankings account for the venue.

I'm happy to answer rankings queries below.
