    damn, Akeel Morris is a K machine with BB issues. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx...185&position=P

    dude averages 10+ K/9 if they can reign him in a bit, buy has future closer written all over him. makes trading Vizcaino a lot easier.

    Looks like a decent return on Johnson. Morris has been on the Mets' 40-man for the past two years.

    Actually saw Akeel Morris in Altoona on Sunday and he gave up a no doubter to Meadows. Seemed to have a funky delivery, I think he was sitting about 92.
