Sharp take

Sharp SixStartRight · +30.5 over the line

Adams put up 39.5 with Nacua out, and that's not a name-brand ceiling, that's a target-share windfall. Nacua's sharp rank of 4 and elite VORP say he's the alpha the second he's back, so don't get cute chasing this week's box score for your keeper strategy. Start Adams while Nacua sits, but the moment Nacua's active he reclaims the lead role. Stafford's clean-pocket 31.2 is nice, but he's a streamer, not a building block.
