July has arrived, and MLB fans are in for an exciting week full of warm-weather baseball. With a ton of teams slated to play seven and eight games -- and, subsequently, a ton of pitchers slated for two starts -- there's an opportunity for fantasy baseball owners to take advantage while their leaguemates focus on hot dogs, beer, and fireworks.Every Friday, we get you ready for the fantasy week ahead, listing our favorite two-start SPs, sleepers, and streams. We also give you a full list of teams scheduled for seven or eight games, as well as the teams only slated to play five (this week, every team plays at least six). Finally, we highlight a few of our sleeper hitters to stream or target in trades. It's an embarra sment of fantasy riches! Good luck in Week 13, and have a happy and safe Fourth of July!As always, these lists are subject to change, especially if inclement weather rears its ugly head.

CHCCarlos Rodon, Giants@ ARI@ SDSandy Alcantara, Marlinsv. LAA@ NYMKyle Wright, Bravesv. STLv. WASNick Pivetta, Red Soxv. TBv. NYYLuis Garcia, Astros v. KC@ OAKJustin Verlandercannot be human. At 39, he's the No. 8overall player in Yahoo Brad Hand Jersey mixed leagues third overall in the past week. He's flirting with a 2.00 ERA and 0.80 WHIP on the season, and over his past two starts, he's 2-0 with an 0.60 ERA and 0.53 WHIP acro s 15 innings. Have mercy on the Cy Young voting, good sir! ...Max Scherzerjoins his fellow veteran Cy Young winner at the topthanks to solid play of late as well as a cake schedule ...You can't go wrong with Alek Manoah in his west-coast trip to Oakland and Seattle, either ...Kyle Wrightreturned to his early-season form against Philly Wednesday, with seven innings of one-run ball. He's got a 9-4 record and 3.03 ERA on the season, but he'll be celebrating 4th of July on the mound against the Cards ... I believe in Nick Pivettahe's looked solid in his past starts against St. Louis, Cleveland, and Toronto. I wouldn't shy away from him in weekly leagues just because he has the Yankees later in the week ...Luis Garciajoins the auto-start group for the first time he looked great against the Yankees Thursday, and he's quietly won three straight starts.

WASEric Lauer, Brewers v. CHCv. PITRanger Suarez, Phillies v. WAS@ STLCal Quantrill went eight strong against the Twins Wednesday, allowing just three runs. He' Allen Craig Jersey s not a strikeout guy, but he does have two sweet matchups and it gives you the opportunity to rename your squad 'Quantrill Physics' ...Taijuan Walkerhas had a roller coaster of a career, but he sure looked special in his 7.1 innings against the Astros Wednesday. Like Quantrill, his K numbers are up and down (along with his WHIP), but he hasa good shot and 2-0 against Cincy and Miami ... Zack Greinkerevenge game in Houston? Maybe just start him at home against Cleveland, if you're conservative ...Jameson Taillonfinds himself in the exact same table position as last week, how about that? He's a strong play against Pittsburgh and an iffy play at Fenway ... Alex Woodis a very consistent pitcher, If he can't mow down the Diamondbacks, cut him loose ... Beware ofIan Andersonand his recent struggles weekly-league managers might be better served benching him for now ...Eric Lauer can be trusted to stream against both the Cubs and the Pirates, butRanger Suarezprobably only merits San Diego Padres Jersey a start against Washington. St. Louis is too hot. Yusei Kikuchi, Blue Jays @ OAK@ SEACole Irvin, Athleticsv. TORv. HOUJohnny Cueto, White Sox v. MINv. DETKyle Hendricks, Cubs @ MIL@ LADTarik Skubal, Tigers v.

I start with Yusei Kikuchi because the bones of his pitching skillset are good, he has a good schedule for the week, and he has a great offense behind him ... Cole Irvinmatchups? Not very good. But he's looked pretty good lately, with a decent whiff rate and 1.13 WHIP over the past two weeks ...Johnny CuetoandMichael Kopechmight be worthy of streams against Detroit ...Hunter Greene andMichael Wachaconcern me against power-hitting offenses ...Dane Dunningoffers slight appeal in weekly leagues, if you're desperate and need high-reward plays to jump you up the pitching standings ...Mitch Whiteis not terrible he plays for the Dodgers and has home matchups against the Rockies and Cubs ... lower your stre s this holiday weekend and stay away from the rest of these guys.

Even without Bader heading to the IL, Yepezs red-hot bad needs to stay in the Cardinals lineup.
