DOUBLE DIPPIN': July 11-17

This is the final week leading up to the All-Star break and we are looking at a large number of marginal starters tentatively lined up for two starts. Just be aware that in addition to the performance risk associated with these pitchers, they will be at risk of getting pulled early in the weekend start as well. Teams will pull out all the stops with their bullpen arms, or even throw in another starting pitcher for an inning or two knowing there is an extended break coming up. 

Let's take a look at the pitchers projected for two turns this week. As always, check out our 8-day scan for updates on all of the matchups for the week.
