I need to select my last keeper, and it has come down to Hughes and Morrow. While Hughes could very well win more games, our league uses K/IP instead of K's... where Morrow is obviously superior. Thoughts?
I think Morrow has more upside than Hughes and should outperform him in every category in 2011 except for wins. Run support is in Hughes favor, but that doesn't always guarantee more wins.

And Morrow wasn't? Morrow was the 5th pick in draft. Hughes was 23rd. Every NY prospect gets overrated. Jack Z made a mistake moving a high upside sp in Morrow for only League. Morrow makes hitters miss. When he cuts his W/9, he's a very good sp.
