Dispose of Morris immediately or sooner, but I wouldn't swap out Lolich. For Morris, there might be a decent 2-3M starter for pitchers parks (Sanderson, Sanford, or platooning a couple nickel guys like Rommel/Faber/Aguilera). I'd rather upgrade your offense. You have 2 lineup holes (Bowa and Schalk) and two other guys who are fairly light hitters (Evers and Collins). I'm not a big fan of Rickey in Candlestick, but your team OBP might be in the .300-.310 range even with him.
I'd look for some OBP at SS, 2b, 3b, or C. Or, if there is a solid pitchers park LF available (Musial, Cuyler, Shoeless Joe), downgrade Rickey, upgrade one of those other positions, and upgrade Morris.
