Morton did not factor into the decision in a loss to the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, allowing four runs on five hits over 6.1 innings while striking out five.
Morton (3-3) took the loss Saturday against Washington, allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits over five innings. He struck out three.
Has an ideal pitchers' frame (6-5, 235 pounds) and the ability to go deep in games when he is in a groove. At his best, he pitches to contact effectively. Is a real battler. Has command issues from time to time that prevent him from being a consistent winner in the bigs. At times he nibbles around the plate. Injuries can also be an issue.
Long Range Potential: Veteran right-hander.
