Fantasy managers typically have to wait five weeks for any given pitcher to have a two-start week. In points leagues, it’s almost a given that you’ll start most two-start pitchers, but in categories league matchups matter. What’s unfortunate is when you finally get a key starting pitcher’s two-start week and then that pitcher faces a couple of tough matchups. That’s the case this week for many pitchers and why we provide our weekly starting pitcher rankings to help fantasy managers strategically set their upcoming lineups.
