Could also be spark plugs. I've had some pretty bad sputtering when my sparks plugs needed changing.

Fix both of the check engine codes. the o2 sensor if it is bad will f up your entire fuel curve that could make things sputter if is going rich or even lean. and the map sensor will usually make your car run like **** if its bad.. So try to fix that stuff first

Yes. Sounds like a problem with the MAP sensor or its wiring somewhere.
