so i've struggled with my starting pitchers recently and need to perhaps drop and add some pitchers. Here's my starting pitcher rotation:
Weaver Ubaldo CJ Wilson Jaime Garcia (recently traded for) Nolasco (dropped De La Rosa for him) Masterson Chacin
Still available in the free agent pool. It's a shallow league, 7 teams, so some known names are still available: Matt Latos Bud Norris Gio Gonalez Brandon Morrow Daniel Hudson Ian Kennedy
The league awards 10pts for a win and favors pitchers with high K's ratings, so it's always beneficial to pick pitchers who play on a winning team.

After Morrow and Norris, I'd go Kennedy, Latos, Hudson, Go in that order.
I dropped De La Rosa on consideration that I didn't have to have 3 Rockies pitchers. I still like Chacin more for his lower ERA at home and obviously I have faith in Ubaldo. De La Rosa's points in our league is a less than Chacin eventhough he's been more solid all around.
I think Gio Gonzalez is a great pickup. I grabbed Morrow and he is high on K's, but his ERA is very high right now. Bud Norris is also great on K's. Daniel Hudson has been okay, but his ERA and WHIP are a little high. If I could grab 2, it would Gonzalez and Morrow.
