In fantasy leagues with weekly lineup changes, selecting pitchers that are making two starts in a particular scoring period is a major advantage. Sports World News has you covered, as every Sunday we will let you know every pitcher scheduled to make two starts in the upcoming week.
As Brian mentioned last week, two-start pitchers become very difficult after Opening week when all the studs go twice. Week 2 of the MLB 2014 season is much muddier in terms of two-start guys, and there are only a handful of hurlers who you can plug in an check back at week's end.
