DOUBLE DIPPIN': May 28-Jun 4

Despite the Monday holiday, it's not a particularly bountiful week for two-steppers: most teams have a 6-game week, with only eight teams playing a 7-game slate (and St. Louis with the lone, dreaded 5-game week). While there are some must-start options in this week two-step pool, there are also a lot of spots that pose a decent amount of risk, and/or where one start rates significantly worse than the other. Let's take a closer look. (As always, all of this week's SP matchups can be found in our 8-day scan.)
