Fantasy Impact:

It's always a concern when a pitcher needs an MRI on their throwing elbow but Morejon has seemingly avoided any serious long-term issue. However, he's unlikely for the Opening Day roster and will begin a throwing progression once his soreness subsides. The southpaw turned in a 4.24 ERA across 26 relief outings last season but owns a 5.05 mark across 66 career innings pitched as he's dealt with injuries throughout his MLB tenure.
