There are many differing opinions on drafting pitchers in fantasy baseball.

Some find the position extremely important and concentrate on drafting top-of-the-line aces such as Clayton Kershaw and Felix Hernandez. The strategy here is since there are more starting spots for pitchers than any other position in fantasy, owners want to make sure they have at least one stud.

Other owners, however, would rather draft position players early on due to the fact they play every day rather than just a couple times per week like pitchers do.

Either way, pitchers can make or break any fantasy lineup and picking the ones who perform the best and stay the healthiest is very important.

Therefore, here are the top five fantasy pitchers in the American League Central for the 2015 season.
