Follow AlApril 4, 2014 9:30 PM ET If you still have the same Fantasy rotation that you had when lineups locked on opening night, it might be time to pay the waiver wire a visit. In Fantasy Week 2 (April 7-13), it's largely the third and fourth starters for major league teams that are getting two starts. In other words, there are many more two-start pitchers up for grabs in the free agent pool, and though very few are close to ace quality, at least some of them are good enough to try in standard mixed leagues. Kyle Lohse, Charlie Morton, Jason Vargas and Felipe Paulino are all currently available in at least 35 percent of the leagues on CBSSports.com, and while you may be able to find better options for your final rotation slot, each is at least worth considering. Then again, you may not need to pick up a free agent to upgrade your rotation. In Week 1, both Scott Kazmir and John Lackey showed the form that made them useful Fantasy starters -- not to mention notable comeback stories last season -- yet both are being started in fewer than 70 percent of our leagues. If you own one or both of them and you don't help to raise that number, you'll likely regret it by the end of next week. Ervin Santana is another option to come off the bench, as he could get activated if he puts in sufficient innings in Friday's start at Triple-A Gwinnett. He could make his Braves debut anytime between Wednesday and Saturday. Mat Latos (knee) owners should monitor his situation this weekend as well, as he could come off the disabled list in time for next weekend. Should Latos be ready, he would be a must-start, while Santana would be a viable standard mixed league start, ranking between Zack Wheeler and R.A. Dickey. If these bench and DL options aren't available to you (or even if they are), then you might as well look into the pitchers featured below. And remember, sometimes the best two-start addition is no addition at all. You are probably better off with a solid one-start pitcher than with any of the two-start pitchers who made the "avoid" list further below. 1. 2. Michael Wacha vs. CIN, vs. 3. Tony Cingrani at STL, vs. 4. Gio Gonzalez vs. 5. C.J. Wilson at HOU, vs. 6. 7. 8. 9. John Lackey vs. 10. Dan Haren, LAD (vs. Things could have gone much worse for Haren in his first start of the season, given that he induced only six swinging strikes and seven ground balls. Those are numbers one wouldn't normally associate with six innings of scoreless ball, so Haren's 2014 debut may be a bit misleading. He's not a good bet to improve on his ground ball rate, but he's long been a control artist with average-to- above-average strikeout rates. That profile makes Haren sittable in some one-start weeks, but there should be few two-start weeks -- including this one -- where you should bench him. 11. Tyson Ross, SD (at CLE, vs. After having spent most of the season in the bullpen, Ross finished last year on a 13-start tear that produced a 2.93 ERA and 85 strikeouts in 80 innings, even though he got called strikes at a subpar rate. It's enticing to think what Ross could accomplish if only he could freeze more batters this season. In his first start of 2014, Ross showed his downside, when he walked four batters in a five-inning effort against the Dodgers. The potential for control issues keeps Ross off this week's "must-start" list, but the likelihood for strikeouts galore means it's only in very shallow leagues that owners should even think of benching him. 12. Ubaldo Jimenez, BAL (at NYY, vs. From late May forward, Jimenez was sensational last season for the Indians, as he posted his highest swinging strike rate in three seasons. He also improved his control but was still all too amenable to the flyball. Jimenez gave owners a scare against the Red Sox on Wednesday, as he yielded only one ground ball over six innings in his Orioles' debut. Two of the 15 airborne balls he allowed resulted in home runs, which in turn produced four runs. While Jimenez is flyball-leaning, he is certain to get more grounders in his starts this week. Benching a pitcher who was superb over his last 23 starts last year because of one start would be an overreaction in the vast majority of mixed leagues. 13. Ivan Nova, NYY (vs. BAL, vs. Nova got the Astros to hit 11 grounders on Thursday, but otherwise, it was a very atypical start for the 27-year-old. He got one lone swinging strike in 5 2/3 innings and threw only 53 percent of his pitches for strikes, resulting in one strikeout and five walks. We have seen our share of aberrant performances in this first week so far, and Nova's was about as bizarre as anyone's. Unless he strings a few of these together, look for him to rediscover his command, starting in Week 2. And as a groundball pitcher, Nova is not to be feared with two starts at Yankee Stadium, where he actually posted a 2.44 ERA last season. 14. Corey Kluber, CLE (vs. Kluber continues our run of pitchers who fell short of expectations in their season debut. The A's clobbered Kluber for eight hits and five runs in 3 1/3 innings, as hitters easily squared up on his sinker. According to BrooksBaseball.net, he limited himself to 12 sliders, which was his most effective pitch in 2013. These are trends worth watching, but as with Jimenez and Nova, Kluber's more extended track record should guide owners, rather than an uncharacteristic first start. Last season, Kluber established himself as a pitcher who can miss bats and minimize walks. 15. Kyle Lohse, MIL (at PHI, vs. If we shouldn't expect Jimenez and Kluber to be flyball dispensers going forward, then in all fairness, we shouldn't look to Lohse to be a strikeout machine. His eight-strikeout performance against the Braves was a pleasant surprise -- and also likely matchup-driven, as the Braves like to swing the bat. What Lohse has done exceedingly well and consistently since 2011 is throw strikes, and with ultra-low walk rates, he has been helping owners with ERA and WHIP, if not Ks. Lohse's matchups look good, as the Pirates have struggled to score and the Phillies don't have many on-base threats. It could be an especially good week for ERA and WHIP, and with two starts, strikeouts are less of a concern. I'd start Lohse over the following one-start pitchers: A.J. 16. 22. Mark Buehrle vs. 23. Trevor Cahill at SF, vs. 24. Felix Doubront vs. 25. 26. Tanner Scheppers at BOS, vs. 27. Kyle Kendrick vs. MIL, vs. 28. Zach McAllister vs. 29. Aaron Harang vs. NYM, vs. 30. Edwin Jackson vs. 31. 32. Jarred Cosart vs. 33. Kevin Correia vs. OAK, vs. Morton got 2014 started the right way, tossing six shutout innings against the Cubs. The North Siders appear to be one of the majors' friendlier matchups, and Morton gets them again in Week 2. Meanwhile, the Brewers have enough thump in their lineup that they will eventually shake their early-season doldrums, but Morton has been one of the majors' best pitchers at keeping the ball in the park. He's a poor bet to sustain the strikeout-per-inning pace of his first start, but Morton should lower your staff's ERA this coming week. That makes him a viable two-start pitcher in some mixed leagues, but because his control is nowhere as good as Lohse's, he's a less attractive waiver option. I'd start the following one-start pitchers over Morton: Lance Lynn, Clay Buchholz, A.J. 17. Tim Hudson, SF (vs. ARI, vs. If owners had concerns about Hudson's return from a fractured ankle, he assuaged them in his season debut against the Diamondbacks. Hudson tossed 7 2/3 scoreless innings in which he allowed only three hits and no walks and induced 12 swinging strikes. High whiff counts probably won't be the norm for Hudson, but sharp control and a lack of extra-base hits should be. As a sinkerballer with a below-average strikeout rate, Hudson has similar appeal to Morton, and like his Pirates' counterpart, he's fringy in standard mixed leagues, even with two starts. I'd start the following one-start pitchers over Hudson: A.J. 18. Jason Vargas, KC (vs. This is the sort of week in which I typically clear an active roster spot for Vargas. He has two starts against teams with generally mediocre lineups, and both of his venues are tough on home-run hitters. Because Vargas is prone to the long ball, he needs to be avoided outside of these scenarios, but because he is fairly stingy with walks and gets infield flies frequently, he usually registers low ERAs and WHIPs in pitchers' parks. Perhaps if the better hitters in the Rays' lineup weren't righties (plus switch-hitting Ben Zobrist), I would rank Vargas a little higher. Given his career .434 slugging percentage allowed against righties, there is enough risk involved with Vargas' one home start for owners to view the lefty as a last resort in standard mixed leagues. I'd start the following one-start pitchers over Vargas: R.A. 19. Heading into the weekend, Colon is owned in 70 percent of the leagues on CBSSports.com. As a two-start pitcher, that percentage could climb even higher, but his new and current owners could wind up disappointed with his Week 2 results. Colon is still notoriously contact-friendly, but in two seasons in Oakland, he was surprisingly effective due to low walk and home run rates. He showed against the Nationals this week that he still throws strikes, but he may have previewed a new proclivity for allowing homers, as Adam LaRoche and Jayson Werth took him out of the park. No longer protected by spacious O.co Coliseum, Colon could be due for a rude awakening, at least at homer-neutral Turner Field against a powerful Braves lineup. 20. Jose Quintana, CHW (at COL, vs. After a miserable Cactus League season in which Quintana allowed 20 earned runs in 11 innings with six strikeouts and seven walks, he bounced back with a decent effort against the Twins. Quintana emerged with improved command (64 percent strikes thrown) and a higher K/9 ratio (8.2) from July forward last season, and he looked more like that pitcher in his season debut. Though Quintana allowed five runs in six innings versus Minnesota, only two of them were earned, and he threw 69 of 109 pitches for strikes and finished with eight strikeouts. In a normal two-start week, that might be enough to embolden owners to start him, but with his first start coming at Coors Field, it's probably best to save Quintana for another two-start week in standard mixed leagues. 21. Felipe Paulino, CHW (at COL, vs. Paulino, like Quintana, turned in a mildly encouraging start against the Twins, and he, too, will have to tame Coors Field in a Week 2 start. In some ways, Paulino appears to be a better option than Quintana, as he throws harder and has been more of a strikeout pitcher over his career. With the harder cheese also comes more wildness, and he is just as much of a home run risk as his teammate. Though Paulino will likely allow less contact than Quintana, he's a bigger threat to your team's ERA, if not its WHIP.

(10:30 pm ET) White Sox infielder Gordon Beckham is on his rehab assignment for Double-A Birmingham as he recovered from a strained left oblique, but he isn't on the verge of returning to the majors yet. According to MLB.com, he is not expected to return until the team's current road trip ends next Wednesday in Colorado. Beckham was also scratched from the lineup Friday, though manager Robin Ventura was not sure why as of the end of the White Sox's game against the Royals. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (10:19 pm ET) Indians designated hitter Jason Giambi will sit down with manager Terry Francona in the coming days to discuss the team's plan for his recover from a broken rib, according to MLB.com Friday. There is a chance Giambi will not need a minor-league rehab assignment, despite opening the season on the 15-day disabled list. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (10:10 pm ET) Rockies reliever Boone Logan could return from the disabled list as early as Sunday according to MLB.com, as he has recovered from offseason elbow surgery. He is pitching his second straight day Friday for Triple-A Colorado Springs, and he could be back Sunday assuming he avoids any sort of setback. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (10:08 pm ET) Though Rockies manager Walt Weiss told MLB.com he is still planning on rotating his various outfield options in and out of the lineup, that was before Charlie Blackmon's huge performance Friday against the Diamondbacks. Blackmon made his third start in five chances and made the most of it, going 6 for 6 with five runs driven in and four scores in a 12-2 win. He had three doubles and a home run, his first of the season. Blackmon is now hitting .563 though five games, with nine hits, six RBI an four extra-base hits in 16 at-bats, while striking out just once. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (10:03 pm ET) Orioles third baseman Manny Machado continues to recover from a knee injury, and was able to do some baseball activities Thursday. Beyond running, it is not clear what these activities entailed, but MLB.com reports he felt good the following day. Machade remains without a concrete timetable for his return from knee surgery, but it is a good sign that he has been cleared to begin running. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (10:00 pm ET) Orioles pitcher Dylan Bundy continues to make progress in his recovery from Tommy John surgery, as he threw a 30-pitch side session Friday. Bundy is working out at the team's spring training complex in Sarasota, Fla., and remains out until at least June as he recovers. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (9:58 pm ET) Orioles pitcher Johan Santana threw 35 pitches in a side session Friday, and was able to mix in all of his pitches as he continues to recover from a shoulder injury. He is set to throw a situational bullpen session Monday according to MLB.com, and he remains on a timetable that could see him pitching in the majors by June. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (9:54 pm ET) Orioles outfielder Francisco Peguero is making progress in his recovery from a wrist injury. Just days after having his cast removed, MLB.com reports he is set to begin a hitting program next week, likely as soon as Monday. by Chris Towers | CBSSports. (9:25 pm ET) White Sox starting pitcher Erik Johnson couldn't do anything right in his first start of the season Friday, a 7-5 loss to the Royals. Johnson was tagged for seven runs in just four-plus innings of work, and he escaped just two of them without allowing any damage. He gave up 10 hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings, while striking out just two. Johnson acquitted himself well in a brief cup of coffee last season, but didn't do much to show it was sustainable in his first outing. His next start is set for Wednesday in Colorado. by Igor Mello | CBSSports. (9:25 pm ET) Rangers pitcher Joe Saunders was forced to leave his first start of the season against the Rays on Friday, after taking an Evan Longoria line drive off his left ankle, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Saunders suffered the injury in the fourth inning and was taken back for X-rays, which came back negative. He allowed five runs -- four earned -- on six hits and three walks while striking out four over 3 2/3 innings pitched. His status remains up in the air for his next start on Friday against Houston. 10J.J.
