Analyzing Every Two-Start Pitcher For Week 9 (5/29 – 6/4)

Old roundup.

Every Friday I look at every projected two-start pitcher for the week ahead and detail my thoughts about rolling with them on your roster. There are four tiers: Definitely, Probably, Questionable, Bench. Definitely Start features starters that are no doubters for the week ahead followed by Probably Start with pitchers that look like good plays but may create a hesitation or two. Players labeled as Questionable are for deeper leagues or have one-of-two outings that should be skipped. Pitchers under Bench should be avoided despite their two starts in the week ahead.

Definitely Start

Carlos Carrasco (OAK, @KCR)

Jose Berrios (HOU, @LAA)

Chris Sale (@CHW, @BAL)

    Yahoo has Maeda pitching on the 30th and the 4th. If that’s true, is he a “probably” or a “questionable”?

    Harvey’s starting Sunday @ Pittsburgh…so he’s not a two-start pitcher next week.

    Any thoughts on Peacock?

      I know he had that 8 K night in 4.1 innings last time against Detroit and he’s worth a flier for a crippled starting rotation, but I really just don’t see him becoming a solid entity on your team. Not to mention, he’ll most likely have a good amount of shortened starts since he needs to get stretched out and all.
