Someone dropped Morrow after his 6 ER start, and I picked him up and have started him every game since and he has been awesome.

However, this is Tampa (where he gave up the 6 ER). I'm leaning towards benching him.

Thoughts?

I'm in a 12 team YAHOO standard yahoo 5x5 mixed rotisserrie league with the following stats:

Roster Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Util, Util, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL, DL
Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Batting Average (AVG)
Pitchers Stat Categories: Wins (W), Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP)

Here's my team:
C: Alex Avila
1B: Luke Scott
2B: Ian Kinsler
3B: Aramis Ramirez
SS: Jed Lowrie
OF: Ryan Braun
OF: Andrew McCuthen
OF: Jay Bruce
UT: Raul Ibanez
UT: Mike Trout
Bench: Howie Kendrick

DL: Stephen Drew
DL: Brett Gardner

Starting Pitchers:
Madison Bumgarber
Jordan Zimmerman
Anibal Sanchez
Max Scherzer
Colby Lewis
Neftali Feliz
Brandon Morrow

Closers:
Frank Francisco
Jason Motte
Brett Myers
Santiago Casilla
Brian Fuentes

I'd start him, but I could understand benching him...

If you want me to look at your team, post the team. Don't post a link to another site where the team is.
Have you given me all the info I need to judge your team? The number of teams in the league is a good start for the big overall questions.
Is your league H2H? Roto?
I don't know who's on your waivers. Don't just ask me who you should pick up. Give me names to choose from.
If you only have one team, post your team in your signature with the league parameters.
I don't know every single matchup for next week, so if you want me to choose a player for the following week and you think the matchups are important, tell me who they're facing.

I could start him. Just to note, I'm 45 innings over already. I'm thinking that maybe I should try to trade one of my starters (and a closer too?) for a good bat.

didnt Morrow strikeout 17 rays in one game in 2010? Rays without Longo and Jennings too if I'm not mistaken.

I'd start him

he'll be good consistently but will have TERRIBLE games every so often, kinda frequently at times, but usually WORTH it.
