MIKE MORSE RUMORS & GOSSIP

Apparently Michael Morse is on Twitter

Welcome to Twitter, Michael Morse? Even more important than the question "Will Mike Morse return to the Nationals lineup on Friday?" is the question "Is @MLBeastMode38 really Michale Morse?" Still trying to verify, but the pro-Heat Tweets seem to be a dead giveaway. (Image of Morse in a sombrero for Cinco de Mayo via Morse's Facebook page) Befriend the...

Video: Michael Morse talks after his rehab start

"If I felt bad, or if I felt like I wasn't ready, I would say something. But I feel ready. And I see these guys having fun and I gotta be a part of it."

Nats' Morse ready for rehab assignment

Although the Washington Nationals are a first-place club, they've done it thus far without the help of slugger Mike Morse, who hit .303 with 31 home runs last season. But the 30-year-old is set to begin his rehab stint and return to Washington.

"Morse eyes June return from disabled list"

June 2012, or June 2013? "I know I'm going to play. The main goal is to play when we start playing the AL teams -- DHing and stuff. June 1, I'm looking for my 2012 season to start." (Michael Morse, via Nationals.com, 5/1/2012) Okay, June 2012 it is, then. But can the Nats hang on without him until then? Above: Maybe Mike Morse can't hit or throw...

Keep it on the DL

The DL slot in many fantasy leagues is one of the most misused and misunderstood positions on fantasy baseball teams. For most people, it’s believed to be where the hopes and dreams of their teams like Mike Morse, Chris B. Young (or if you like your KFC version, it’s Krispie Young) and Jacoby Ellsbury go to die while you go stick your head in the proverbial oven&hellip...

Drafters Feeling Plenty Re: Morse

I hate guys that are injured before the season even starts.  I should’ve emphasized that more in the preseason.  I should’ve followed my gut on that with Stanton too.  At least Stanton can play through the nagging pain (hopefully), on the other hand, Mike Morse is shut down for 6 weeks and he has a history of injuries.  (Can you tell I’m still reeling a bit...

#44: Is Mike Morse a legit top 10 outfielder?

Michael Morse is one of the few players hyped over the last few years who actually has panned out. Jason Heyward must be very jealous. Morse was a big sleeper heading into last year, and rightfully so. He finished 2010 with 15 home runs, 41 RBI and a .289 batting average in 266 at bats. Even though he struggled out of the gate early in 2011, he put things together towards the end...

Player Profile #100: Mike Morse | 1B/OF | WAS

Last March I wrote this about Mike Morse: “Assuming 500 at-bats, which I think is reasonable, we could be looking at a 20-homer, 80-RBI season with a good batting average coming from a widely undrafted player.” Morse ended up getting 522 at-bats, put up a “good” .303 average (and a .288 xBA, which is more what I expected) but crushed my power projections....

The Cool Story of Michael Morse

Close your eyes if you will and picture Michael Morse in your head. Got it? Okay, does that look like a shortstop? No, right? But that's what he was drafted as way back in 2000 (third round by the White Sox) and that's where he played his first six years of his ten-year minor league career. The easiest thing to state in this entire piece will be that Michael Morse doesn...
