FACTS/FLUKES: Morton, Brantley, Canning, Gardner, Turnbull

Morton flashes ace-like skills... After posting a career-high $19 R$ in 2018, Charlie Morton (RHP, TAM) has provided even more R$ value in 2019. Through 182 IP, his 15 wins, 223 strikeouts, 3.16 ERA, and 1.10 WHIP have resulted in $23 worth of R$. Although he has an F Health Grade, the right-hander has not missed any time in 2019. Does he have the skills to be near the top of a fantasy rotation in 2020?
