After last week’s ‘two-start-a-palooza’ with an overabundance of quality two-start pitchers, we’re back to slim pickings this week. In fact, there are only a few two-start options that we have ranked a 5 or higher for start confidence level in their starts. That means it’s back to hunting for quality single-start pitching options this week and key matchups will be vital. To assist your upcoming week pitching lineup decisions we’ve ranked every starting pitcher based on their matchup(s) and quality start confidence rating.
