| 5 | Ryan Pepiot | TBR at MIL | x | x | x | 28 | 3.77 | 0.98 | 19% | 3rd | Skills are strong and has been pretty sharp in both of his last 2 starts |
| 6 | Trevor Rogers | MIA v WSN | x | x | x | 26 | 4.10 | 1.52 | 13% | 25th | Gets a schedule repreieve after at ATL last wk w/this one then at OAK on the wknd |
| 7 | Cristopher Sánchez | PHI at LAA | x | x | x | 24 | 2.96 | 1.48 | 15% | 14th | Escaped too much heat w/4 UER at CIN, but even if he’d worn all 5 runs I’d still be riding w/him in most formats |
| 8 | Luis Severino | NYM v CHC | x | x | 27 | 2.67 | 1.26 | 15% | 13th | First 0 BB gm since his opener last time out is encouraging | |
| 9 | Bailey Falter | PIT at OAK | x | x | 27 | 3.33 | 0.89 | 11% | 26th | Pure matchup stream w/at OAK & v COL schedule | |
| 10 | Clarke Schmidt | NYY at BAL | x | x | 25 | 3.55 | 1.46 | 18% | 6th | Sitting this one out in daily lgs, but running w/him 2-steps to get v DET on the wknd | |
| 11 | Jameson Taillon | CHC at NYM | x | x | 10 | 1.69 | 1.12 | 14% | 12th | Starting in 15s, more of a toss-up in 12s | |
| 12 | Bryce Miller | SEA v ATL | x | x | 28 | 2.22 | 0.99 | 16% | 2nd | Rough slate w/HOU on the weekend so I understand skipping even w/the premium ratios thus far | |
| 13 | Garrett Crochet | CHW v MIN | x | x | 29 | 6.37 | 1.18 | 26% | 5th | Far from a must-start, but I can’t ignore the 26% K-BB so I’m running the 2-step to give one last shot | |
| 14 | Steven Matz | STL at DET | x | x | 24 | 5.55 | 1.60 | 6% | 24th | Poor man’s Falter w/v CHW this wknd | |
| 15 | Bryse Wilson | MIL v TBR | x | 18 | 3.50 | 1.00 | 14% | 17th | |||
| 16 | Griffin Canning | LAA v PHI | x | 24 | 7.50 | 1.54 | 12% | 11th | Just a relentless schedule w/5 AL East matchups and now PHI | ||
| 17 | Jake Irvin | WSN at MIA | x | 27 | 4.55 | 1.30 | 14% | 27th | Couldn’t tame LAD 2x, but I can still see running this in deeper formats | ||
| 18 | Kenta Maeda | DET v STL | x | 22 | 5.96 | 1.37 | 10% | 24th | Strong at TBR, buuuuttt NYY is looming on the weekend and I’m just not there right now | ||
| 19 | Jonathan Bowlan | KCR at TOR | #N/A | #N/A | #N/A | #N/A | 25th | ||||
| 20 | James Paxton | LAD at ARI | 20 | 2.61 | 1.55 | -7% | 1st | I’ve stuck w/him, but the walks are just crazy and I can’t do this or ATL on the wknd | |||
| 21 | Yariel Rodriguez | TOR v KCR | 11 | 3.86 | 1.54 | 19% | 14th | Unlikely to reach 5 IP and we don’t know if he’ll get the wknd start at WSH | |||
| 22 | Matt Waldron | SDP v CIN | 25 | 3.96 | 1.44 | 12% | 21st | ||||
| 23 | Joe Boyle | OAK v PIT | 21 | 7.06 | 1.80 | 8% | 23rd | ||||

Am I wrong in thinking that C Sanchez is a two start SP this week?
I think they’re running all 6 and eating up the 2-step. I’m starting Sanchez pretty much everywhere at LAA anyway so if it’s a 2-step, that’s a bonus
