Morse missed two months and had a slow start. He stll has 400 AB's and hit .290. What is everyone nagin' about? His HR's were down but it took him about a month to power up. I would be happy with him at first and would shut my eyes when a ball is hit into the corner with him in LF.

Morse was slightly above average with the stick last year. He managed a .291 average but only a .321 OBP due to a horrendous walk rate. Combine that with his decreased power and a solid Adam Dunn impression in the field and you have a player that's not that valuable.

This is the Morse that people are most recently associated with. Sure he was awesome in 2011 and I really think he has it in him to repeat that but only if he can stay healthy which is not something I'm sure he can manage.
