DOUBLE DIPPIN': August 28-September 3

With the season now 80% complete and the likelihood that many pitchers will have their innings limited, or be shut down entirely, in the coming weeks, now is the time to strike for fantasy managers hoping to make a move in the pitching categories. Fortunately, this looks to be a good week for pitching volume, with just over half of the 35 two-start options falling in the "strong" tier. Most of those strong options are universally rostered, but there a couple exceptions who should be available in many leagues. We'll take a closer look at those, as well as some intriguing two-start pitchers from the lower tiers as well. As always, you can find all of this week's matchups and ratings in the 8-day view.
