    Chad Billingsley vs. AJ Burnett?

    Who should I get for my fantasy team? I'm looking for a decent #2 starter.

    I would take Billingsley but if these guys are available i'd take Gio Gonzalez, Brandon Morrow, Jake Peavey or Wandy Rodriguez. The reason I say this is if Billingsley or Burnett are still available these guys may be too.

    Those guys are definitely #4s or #5s. However, if I had to choose between the two, I would take Billingsley. He plays for a better team and is much younger than Burnett, so he has more of a chance to rebound.

    As for your post, Chigagowhitesox1173, what makes you think Gonzalez, Peavy, Morrow, or Rodriguez would be available if those guys are? I can almost guarantee that those guys are owned in 98% of all leagues. As a matter of fact, Gio Gonzalez is currently ranked among the top 5 pitchers right now, if I am not mistaken.
