DOUBLE DIPPIN': August 17-23

This is a week where there aren't a lot of off days, and several double-headers, so the two-start list is pretty lengthy. However, the status of the Cincinnati games remains unclear, after they had Saturday and Sunday's contests cancelled due to a positive test from a player. There could be further cancellations, which would not only affect them, but could reduce the number of games for the Royals (early in week) and perhaps the Cardinals again (weekend).

Furthermore, there are a lot of shaky options this week who may end up doing more harm than good, and in this short season, a couple of bad starts can do irreparable damage in the ratio categories. Wins and strikeouts are at a premium, but rather than dig too deep into the starter...
