Which 2 start pitcher should i pick up for next week?

Question

i am considering charlie morton and jason marquis. morton has looked solid in his first few starts for atlanta.marquis has won 4 in a row but could implode at any minute. both of morton's starts are in atlanta while marquis' starts are both one the road vs matt cain and tentatively todd wellemeyer. i also like the fact that he pitched with the flu and a fever and didn't get torn up. i am thinking about taking a shot on the kid. i like what i have read on him and his triple a numbers from the end of last year to now. i could use some help on either marquis or charlie. thanks

Answer 1

old pitchers are always good.

Answer 2

Charlie Morton was not really solid in his first three starts. and next week, he will be facing high-powered teams in Philly and Houston so it will be risky to start him next week.

as for Jason Marquis, he will have a good start in SF against a pathetic Giants line-up but he will have a hard time against the Cards, where he gave up 5 runs in less than 6 innings last month against Wellermeyer. but hopefully this time, without Pujols and starting at home, things will get better for Jason.

but I think you should take a shot on Marquis. and hope for the best.
