5 years agoThe New York Yankees are signing free-agent first baseman Logan Morrison to a minor league deal on Friday. The Yankees want some first base depth while Greg Bird (foot) recovers from a plantar fascia tear. Morrison, 31, had a career-high 38 home runs in 2017 with the Rays, but he was an extreme disappointment in 2018 with Minnesota, slashing a weak .186/.276/.368 with 15 homers and 39 RBI in just 95 games. He'll eventually report to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but it's not a guarantee that he'll make noise in the majors in the Bronx, let alone even get there.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
