The single biggest edge in weekly-lineup fantasy baseball: pitchers who start twice in the scoring period get roughly double the counting stats.
Weekly estimates use historical projection averages or season stats, with opponent and park adjustments. They are separate from the daily matchup forecast. The list includes probable starters and rotation guesses, which can change. Names are free; Pro members can see estimated points and rankings.
In weekly head-to-head fantasy baseball leagues (ESPN, Yahoo, Fantrax), you set a lineup for a Monday–Sunday scoring period. A pitcher scheduled to start twice in that window accumulates roughly double the innings, strikeouts, and win equity of a one-start pitcher — making two-start pitchers the highest-leverage streaming and start/sit decision of the week.
We don't just list who throws twice. Each projected start is run through a matchup adjustment (opponent offensive strength + park factor) and summed into a weekly total, so a two-start week against elite offenses in hitter parks is rated below an easier two-start slate. Projections firm up as MLB confirms probable starters, usually about five days out.
