David Morgan under consideration for rotation role

The Padres are evaluating David Morgan as a possible addition to their 2026 starting rotation, Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic report. While Mason Miller and Adrian Morejon are the more prominent bullpen arms being discussed for starting roles, Morgan is also in the mix. The 26-year-old converted infielder, who began pitching in 2022, recorded a 2.66 ERA with a 50:23 K:BB across 47.1 innings this season. He made two opener appearances for San Diego but last made a traditional start in 2022 at Hope International, an NAIA program. (Ken Rosenthal)
Fantasy Impact:
Morgan’s strong performance in limited action has earned him consideration for an expanded role next year. His lack of starting experience, however, means the Padres will likely evaluate his workload carefully during spring training.
