Phillies Reportedly Calling up Logan Morrison
Published:
Jeff Passan at ESPN:
Logan Morrison is being called up by the Philadelphia Phillies, sources tell ESPN. The veteran left-handed hitter has been a force this season at AAA, hitting .308/.369/.640 between stops with Yankees and Phillies. He’ll join a struggling Phillies offense looking for a spark.

Morrison signed a minor league deal with the Phils in July.
He’s likely a replacement for Corey Dickerson, who bruised his left hand last night, though we still don’t have official word on whether that would be the corresponding roster move.
Morrison played for the Twins last year and batted .186 with a .644 OPS.
