I think it means he's totally dependent on his ability to make contact. Unless he is HoF type hitter, that is going to diminish over time. Historically, that will begin around 30.
When he's a free agent, Morse will be 30. He will walk for a big deal. It's his first, and probably only, shot at free agency type pay checks. We would be wise to get something of value for him if possible.
No, it means exactly the opposite of that. He has a high K-rate, so he hits well without making as much contact as low-K, low-BB guys. His high BABIP suggests he's not making that much contact, but when he does he either gets lucky or makes it count. I think it's the latter.
He's dependent on his ability to make direct contact so as to really crush the hell out of the baseball.
