2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Cubs called Morel up straight from the Double-A level in mid-May. Initially it looked like he might be an NL Rookie of the Year candidate as Morel slashed .273/.343/.503 with nine home runs and seven stolen bases in his first 47 big-league games. Now more than ever, the book is already out on a player by the time they get to the majors, but that may not have been the case with Morel given he skipped the highest level of the minors. The league eventually caught up and in the end Morel struck out in nearly one-third of his plate appearances. Rafael Ortega was non-tendered in the offseason, leaving Morel tentatively atop the depth chart in center field although he will likely jump around the field as he did last season. Morel is 2B and OF eligible in leagues with a 20-game minimum for eligibility and adds third base and shortstop in leagues with a 10-game minimum. Read Past Outlooks
Out of Sunday's lineup
Morel is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
ANALYSIS
Morel started the past five games and will receive a day off after he went 4-for-14 with two home runs, a double and five RBI during that span. Nelson Velazquez will man center field and bat ninth Sunday.
