DOUBLE DIPPIN': May 8-14
May 7 2023
Starting pitching remains a minefield, with Braxton Garrett, Jack Flaherty, Kevin Gausman, and Brandon Pfaadt (in his MLB debut) headlining the blow-ups this past week. Cumulative ERA for all starting pitchers stands at 4.56 through Saturday's games, more than a half-run higher than last season's 4.05. In this environment, choosing one's starting pitchers wisely is especially important - doubly so, when those pitchers have two-start weeks. Let's take a look at this week's options. As always, all of this week's SP matchups can be found in our 8-day scan.
Strong 2-start options
| SP | Rating1 | Opp1 | Rating2 | Opp2 | Week Rating | |
| Zac Gallen | 3.6 | vMIA | 3.1 | vSF | 3.3 | |
| Shane McClanahan | 1.7 | @BAL | 1.9 | @NYY | 1.8 | |
| Logan Gilbert | 1.7 | vTEX | 1.4 | @DET |
