Morrow will throw up to 70 pitches in his start Tuesday against Kansas City, the Union-Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Morrow will make his final start of spring training Tuesday. He missed his last start due to a blister on his throwing hand, which bothered him in his previous outing where he allowed five runs in 3.2 innings. As long as Morrow doesn't suffer a setback in Tuesday's start, he'll likely be awarded the fifth spot in the Padres' rotation.
