Andrew Morris: Breaking News

Morris struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Wednesday to record his first career save in a 4-1 win over the Astros. The rookie right-hander tossed his hat into the ring for the vacant Twins closing job with an impressive effort, as he needed just 10 pitches (eight strikes) to dispatch the heart of Houston's order, including Yordan Alvarez and Christian Walker. Morris topped out at 97.4 mph with his fastball, and through 9.2 innings in May he's posted a 1.86 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB while also collecting a win and two holds in eight appearances.

Morris tossed six pitches in a scoreless first inning during the Twins' 5-4 win over the Guardians on Sunday. It was a bullpen day for the Twins on Sunday, with Morris serving as the opener despite tossing 11 pitches in two-thirds of a frame during Saturday's 2-1 extra-innings win. He needed just six pitches to get through the first frame Sunday and was replaced by Kendry Rojas for the second inning. Morris sports a 4.67 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 15:5 K:BB across 17.1 innings this season.

Morris will serve as the Twins' starter for Sunday's series finale against the Guardians, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. Despite tossing two-thirds of an inning during the Twins' 2-1 extra-innings win over the Guardians on Saturday, Morris will operate as Minnesota's starter for Sunday's contest in what will be a bullpen game. Since making his major-league debut April 12, Morris has posted a 4.96 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 15:5 K:BB across 16.1 innings.
