Twins Decline Options On Ervin Santana, Logan Morrison
6 years agoThe Minnesota Twins declined their 2019 options on starting pitcher Ervin Santana and first baseman Logan Morrison on Tuesday, giving each $1 million buyouts and making them free agents. Both players had lost seasons in 2018 due to injuries. Santana only made five starts due to a finger injury that required surgery, and he wasn't good when he did pitch, posting an 8.03 ERA and 1.62 WHIP. The veteran right-hander won't be very attractive to fantasy owners no matter where he lands. Morrison hit a putrid .186/.276/.368 with 15 home runs and 39 RBI in 95 games after posting a career year in Tampa (38 home runs, 85 RBI) in 2017. Morrison isn't as bad as his 2018 season suggests, but he's highly unlikely to reach his high-water mark of 2017 ever again.
