Logan Morrison Elects Free Agency

By Connor Byrne | August 14, 2020 at 6:45pm CDT

The Brewers announced Friday that first baseman Logan Morrison cleared waivers, rejected an outright assignment and elected free agency. Milwaukee designated Morrison for assignment Aug. 10.

Morrison was an offseason minor league signing for the Brewers, who took a low-risk chance on him after a pair of rough, abbreviated seasons divided between the Twins and Phillies. The 32-year-old didn’t give the Brewers the results they were looking for this season, as he walked to the plate 28 times and only mustered a line of .120/.214/.280 (35 wRC+) with one home run.

While Morrison isn’t that far removed from a terrific 2017 Rays season in which he slashed .246/.353/.516 (131 wRC+) with 38 homers in 601 plate appearances, the 32-year-old has typically been an unspectacular contributor relative to his position. Since debuting with the Marlins in 2010, Morrison has batted .238/.323/.425 (105 wRC+) with 140 homers in 3,779 trips to the plate. That’s certainly a much better career than most MLB players could realistically hope for, but based on his recent output, it seems unlikely Morrison will reemerge as an impact player in the bigs if another organization gives him a chance.

    If Cron is out for a while, the Tigers now can choose between LoMo and Bird as possible additions to the training squad.

    They signed him to a minor league contract. What did you expect?

      Better than a .120 batting average with a 35wrc+? That’s not expecting much.

      A little more based on his spring/summer training performance. But yeah, with a minor league deal expectations shouldn’t really be that high.

    Got a feeling that LoMo will be a Tiger before end of weekend. Greg Bird also a possibility but one of them will almost certainly be signed. Can’t see the Tigers using Brandon Dixon for the remainder of this season.
