A pair of great starts on Friday to help recover from the awful John Lackey outing on Thursday. Both Humber and Stauffer went deep into the game and gave a handful of strikeouts. The ERA and WHIP were good, and both guys pitched well enough to get a win. Stauffer was fully in line for a win until Heath Bell blew the save in the ninth. Once again here Saturday, I'm eliminating players below the 50% line from my spot start choices here. Bud Norris is an obvious number one choice, but he is going to be owned in any league thats on top of things. Madison Bumgarner is also a solid spot starter choice, but he probably shouldn't have been cut anyways and was likely picked back up after his two good starts. Bartolo Colon should be owned in your league, but I'm not recommending him here at Texas anyways, so I'm also disqualifying him here. Now, onto a pair of starters who should be available in your league for Saturday...
