This is a real tough week to figure out pitching matchups with the trade deadline landing on Tuesday. Several trades will surely go down that will send pitchers to different teams with entirely different matchups, while adding or subtracting a starter will lead to teams shuffling their current rotations.
Examples of the first situation include Jack Flaherty (RHP, STL) and Zack Greinke (RHP, KC), who have both been the subject of trade rumors in recent weeks. Any deal that goes down involving them would almost certainly cost them a start this week. Someone like Ryne Nelson (RHP, ARI) could also be at risk of missing out on his two-step, as he could potentially be the odd man out if the Diamondbacks add pitching help.
For any team likely...
Almost!
