DOUBLE DIPPIN': August 14-20

There are as many teams with five games this week as there are with seven, making this a somewhat light week in terms of two-start options. That presents an opportunity, in that fantasy managers who have several two-start SPs can make up ground in Wins and Strikeouts on those who don't. But there's still plenty of time for ratio categories to shift, so managers will want to choose their double-starters carefully. To that end, we'll examine a few of the more interesting and/or difficult options in detail below. As always, you can find all of this week's matchups and ratings in the frequently-updated 8-day view.
