Phillies' Adam Morgan: Increased velocity this season

Morgan averaged 90.8 mph with his fastball Friday according to PITCHf/x data, Matt Breen of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

Morgan threw in the low 90s before he underwent shoulder surgery in January of 2014, yet he averaged 89 mph last season with the Phillies. His strikeout rate was up significantly in his three starts at Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season, and that trend continued in his start Friday against the Indians. He could be worth a look in deeper leagues.
