With every team playing six or seven games, Fantasy Week 6 (May 9-16) offers more two-start options than most. The problem is you won't find many of them on the waiver wire.

At least not the ones you'd want.

One glaring exception is Adam Conley, who you'll see ranked ahead of some true aces here despite being available in more than one-fourth of CBSSports.com leagues. Giving up just two hits in his last two starts will do that for a player. So will a trip to Coors Field for said aces.

The must-starts end after No. 14, but Nos. 15-18 are advisable if you can get your hands on him, what with so few quality options available. Matt Wisler in particular stands out. He's owned in just 27 percent of CBSSports.com leagues.

Beyond that, any two start-pitcher is liable to do you more harm than good, especially if you're looking to protect ratios like ERA and WHIP in a categories league. The cutoff is a little lower in a points league, where even some bad starts will net positive points, but once you get down to No. 25, Tyler Chatwood with those two starts at Coors Field, I say no thanks.
