DOUBLE DIPPIN': April 26-May 2

This is an interesting week with plenty of two-start pitchers that are available on a lot of waiver wires. Some of these options looked at least somewhat trustworthy just a few weeks ago, but now carry a great deal of risk.

There are a few others off to slow starts that can mostly be chalked up to a small sample and/or some tough luck. This list includes José Urquidy, David Peterson, and Frankie Montas, the latter two carrying identical 6.75 ERA's into this week. Let's now go into more depth on many of these pitchers, and be sure to check out our 8-day scan for all of the week's matchups.
