Definitely grab Shaun Marcum, I am a believer in his stuff and he can be a very high-end No. 3 or even low-end No. 2 this year. The other SP slot is between Lewis, C.J. Wilson, and Jaime Garcia, imo. I'd go with the pedigree there and take Jaime Garcia. The Rangers pitching duo scares me a bit... balls tend to fly out of Arlington during the summer.

I would drop Slowey and Wilson for Garcia and Duch while keeping Marcum. Slowey does not have overpowering stuff which is why he will get torched on occasion if his command is off

Can you help here plz?

Disagree. Slowey becomes a man this year. Sure, he gets bombed sometimes, but that control is impeccable. After his next two starts (CLE and KC), people will be singing a different tune about Slowey.

Garcia & Marcum... keep an eye on Colby Lewis. I might even drop CJ Wilson for him (he's really not as good as what he's showing now). Don't drop Slowey, that's crazy talk.

I would definitely pick up Marcum and Lewis. DONT DROP SLOWEY! That is terrible advice. He has tons of potential and will rack up the wins. Have faith. ;-D
