    Unless you've got a roster stacked with high-end pitchers you'll start against any matchup, you'll probably need to keep a close eye on the schedule as you get ready to set your lineup for the upcoming week. You'll need to know which of your starters have bad matchups, which are set for two starts in the upcoming week, and which fringe-y options might just be worth going out to grab on waivers. 

    Which is why you'll definitely want to check out SportsLine's weekly pitching Start 'Em & Sit 'Em chart from William Dubiel. A 15-year Fantasy veteran, Dubiel got his start in Fantasy baseball and has done work for Rotoballer, Metro US and multiple other outlets during his career. He was named the No. 4 MLB Ranker for the 2017 MLB season, so if there's anybody who can give you an edge in your Fantasy baseball league, it's him.

    Now, he's helping you set your pitching lineup each week. William goes through every starting pitcher matchup for the upcoming week, making start and sit picks for each game. And one pitcher you'll want to get into your lineup in Week 5 is Luke Weaver. 

    Coming off a disappointing season in 2018, Weaver is looking more like the guy with so much promise we saw in 2017. Through four starts, he has a 3.92 ERA and 2.91 FIP, with 24 strikeouts in 20.2 innings of work, excellent numbers all around. Weaver is still available in about half of CBS Fantasy leagues, and William has him as a start for his first matchup against the Pirates. Things might not go as well in his second start against the Cubs, but you'll still want him in your lineup as a two-start pitcher in weekly lineup lock leagues. 

    William also has the usually reliable Kyle Hendricks as a sit for his matchup against the Dodgers. Don't miss the rest of William's start and sit calls for Week 5 right here:
