Phillies' Adam Morgan: Could transition to relief role

Manager Pete Mackanin said Morgan could be an option for the Phillies' bullpen this season, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Morgan is currently being stretched out as a starter in camp, but the Phillies don't have a need for him as a starter in the majors, and their Triple-A rotation is expected to be filled by younger prospects. Morgan struggled as a starter last season, going 2-11 with a 6.04 ERA and a 95:29 K:BB in 113.1 innings. If he ends up in the pen it would likely be in middle or long relief.
