Cubs Moving On From Brandon Morrow
5 years agoThe Chicago Cubs declined the 2020 option on relief pitcher Brandon Morrow (elbow) on Monday, making him a free agent. Relief pitchers Tony Barnette and Kendall Graveman also had their options declined. Morrow pitched only half of the 2018 season before landing on the injured list with right biceps inflammation, and he didn't pitch at all in 2019 either after undergoing elbow surgery. His option was worth $12 million, but he'll instead receive a $3 million buyout. Morrow isn't guaranteed to be a productive option for a team's bullpen on the open market and is well off the fantasy radar for the time being.
