Adrian Morejon Reporting To Camp As A Reliever
31 seconds agoAccording to AJ Cassavell of MLB.com, left-handed pitcher Adrian Morejon will report to camp as a relief pitcher. Manager Mike Shildt noted that Morejon "has found a really nice niche in the bullpen." Last summer, Morejon operated primarily out of the bullpen and held a 2.83 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP. Across 63 2/3 innings of work, he struck out 71 batters while holding a 7.7 percent walk rate. Under the hood, he generated a stellar 32.4 percent hard-hit rate and a 51.4 percent ground-ball rate, placing him in the 93rd and 86th percentile, respectively. He tallied two saves and was deployed typically in the sixth and seventh innings. Fantasy managers should expect Morejon to operate in a similar role in 2025 as Robert Suarez, Jason Adam, and Jeremiah Estrada are viewed as the high-leverage arms in the bullpen.
