Rockieshome.com | Colorado Rockies News, rockies Scores, Game Recaps & Commentary - Top Two-Start Pitchers of the Week
Francisco Liriano, Minnesota: When he's right, he's one of the best pitchers in baseball. Because of that, there's no way you sit him at this point. He's throwing in important games, so he'll be on top of things. Throwing at Seattle and Oakland is about as sexy a schedule as you're gonna find, too.Justin Duchscherer, Oakland: The game's best pitcher the first half of the season hasn't been quite as dominant the past two months, but he certainly hasn't embarrassed himself, either. He's certainly worth a pair of starts this week.
Carlos Zambrano, Chicago Cubs: Has been prone to the poor game, but that won't happen against Pittsburgh, who the Cubs have dominated this season. Oh, if only his batting stats counted too!
Dan Haren, Arizona: I know he hasn't had a great month, but there's no better way to cure that than a game against the Padres! He gets the Dodgers in his second start, but at the very least, he should put up one monster game for you, if not two.
Jake Peavy, San Diego: A poor record doesn't faze me with Peavy. He has a beautiful sub-3.00 ERA and a ton of strikeouts. He gets the D-Backs and Rockies both at home in the cavernous Petco Park. That park never gets old for fantasy owners desperate for needed pitching stats.
Sleepers
Jeff Francis, Colorado: Games at both San Fran and San Diego will do wonders for any pitcher, even one who throws for the Rockies.
Armando Galarraga, Detroit: First of all, he has a great schedule in front of him, with Cleveland and Kansas City both coming to town. That's about as gorgeous as it gets. Then you look at the fact he's allowed just 11 ER in his last six starts, with the Tigers winning five of those. He'll get you some good numbers this week for sure.
