Is·Brandon Morrow Legit? (1 Viewer)

BABIP of .217 and 79% strand rate aren't going to stay there. But his BB rate has improved a lot over the past two years which makes him a much better fantasy option than when he was walking 4.5 per nine.

 
He's made a conscious effort to pitch to contact in some scenarios which has led to almost 2.5 fewer pitches per inning. May not lead league in K/9 anymore but will pitch a career high IP and walk fewer batters.

 
He is definitely a legit AL starting pitcher

Beyond that depends on what your expectations are - I agree some ratios will go up but he can strike out a lot of guys and should have decent support

 
3rd shutout of the season tonight. gave up 2 hits, 2 walks (both walks in the 9th when he was clearly tiring).

In 8 of his 12 starts he's given up 0 or 1 earned runs in 6+ innings.
