Michael Morse is expected to miss a couple of days due to a mild right calf strain.

It's a lingering issue for Morse, who originally injured his calf a few days ago. He was able to return to action earlier this week, but some additional rest will be required.

Michael Morse is currently nursing a sore right calf.

Morse said "it's nothing" when asked about the calf Sunday and then proceeded to job out of the clubhouse. He should be back in there in a day or two.

Giants signed OF Michael Morse to a one-year, $6 million contract.

Morse can also earn a bit more through performance-based incentives. He's a poor defensive outfielder, but the Giants are set with Brandon Belt at first base and will use Morse as their primary left fielder in 2014. The 31-year-old owns a .281/.334/.473 career slash line.

Michael Morse will have a base salary of $6 million in his one-year deal with the Giants, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.

Buster Olney of ESPN previously reported that the deal was worth around $5 million. It's believe that he could earn more with incentives. Morse isn't much of a defender, but the Giants plan to use him as their regular left fielder in 2014.

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that Michael Morse will make a base salary of $5 million in his new one-year deal with the Giants.

The deal also includes incentives. Morse is coming off an injury-plagued year, but the Giants are hoping he can provide some pop out of left field.

Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com reports that the Giants have signed Michael Morse to a one-year contract, pending a physical.

No word yet on the terms involved. Morse was also drawing heavy interest from the Astros, but he'll obviously have a better chance to contend with the Giants. The 31-year-old was limited to just 88 games this past season due to injury and is coming off wrist surgery, but he should share playing time with Gregor Blanco in left field in 2014.

The Astros are in "serious" discussions with Mike Morse, according to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal.

Morse is 31 years old and coming off an injury-plagued season, so the Astros would be buying low on the slugger. ESPN's Buster Olney previously reported Morse is looking for a one-year deal in the $7-8 million range. He'd likely serve as the team's designated hitter and first baseman. The Rockies have also been linked to the outfielder.

The Rockies are interested in free agent outfielder Michael Morse, reports ESPN's Jayson Stark.

Colorado has an open starting outfield slot, alongside Carlos Gonzalez and Michael Cuddyer, following the Dexter Fowler trade. Morse would be a nice fit. True, he suffered through an injury-plagued 2013, slashing a meager .215/.270/.381 with 13 homers and 27 RBI in 88 games between the Mariners and Orioles, but Morse is one of the top power hitters remaining on the open market. ESPN's Buster Olney reported earlier in the week that Morse is looking for a one-year contract worth $7-8 million, a deal that would offer his new team plenty of upside.

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that Michael Morse is looking for a one-year deal worth $7-8 million.

Morse might be able to get a two-year deal if he really wanted, but he probably prefers a one-year pact as he attempts to re-establish his value following a down 2013. The Astros, Rangers, Rockies, Giants and Marlins are all interested in the first baseman/outfielder.

Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports that the Astros are interested in Michael Morse.

Morse is coming off an injury-plagued season and would be a good fit for Houston as a buy-low candidate. For what it's worth, Morse has history with Astros manager Bo Porter from their time together in Washington. The Giants, Rangers, Rockies and Marlins have also reportedly expressed interest in the 31-year-old

Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com hears that the Giants are interested in Michael Morse and Corey Hart "but expect dollars/years to go beyond their appetite."

The Giants would be OK going into the season with Gregor Blanco as their left fielder but are exploring possible upgrades. However, it doesn't sound like they'll be willing to pay much to make something happen. Morse is coming off a disappointing, injury-shortened season, while Hart missed all of 2013 due to injury.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that the market for free agent outfielder has begun to heat up, with the Rangers, Rockies, Giants and Marlins all interested.

Morse struggled through an injury plagued campaign in 2013, slashing a meager .215/.270/.381 with 13 homers and 27 RBI in 88 games between the Mariners and Orioles. He's one of the top power hitters remaining on the open market and represents a nice buy-low option.

Michael Morse is on the Giants' radar in their search for a left fielder, reports Hank Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle.

Schulman also notes that the team would likely prefer to trade for a left fielder instead. Morse started quickly but cooled considerably last season, finishing with a .215/.270/.381 line. He hasn't garnered much attention, at least not publicly, to this point in the offseason.

Michael Morse will undergo surgery on his left wrist Wednesday to shave down a bone outgrowth.

Doctors believe the outgrowth occurred as a result of trauma from an injury back in May. It's a relatively minor procedure, as Morse will be able to resume some activities within four weeks and should be totally healed within 6-8 weeks. An impending free agent, Morse will enter spring training with a clean bill of health.

Michael Morse will undergo surgery on his left wrist.

The decision was made after Morse received a second opinion at the Mayo Clinic. The 31-year-old batted just .215/.270/.381 with 13 homers in 337 plate appearances this season between the Mariners and Orioles, but could make sense as a buy-low option in free agency.

Michael Morse will have his left wrist examined by Dr. Brian Schofield on Wednesday.

He'll also go to the Mayo Clinic next Monday to get checked out. Morse was finally shut down on Saturday after nursing the wrist injury for a while. It's not clear at this point whether he'll require surgery.

Mike Morse (wrist) has been shut down for the rest of the season by the Orioles.

Morse has been battling a wrist ailment for some time and finally succumbed to it. He'll be examined by a hand specialist in Florida and will get a second opinion at the Mayo Clinic before deciding whether to have surgery. Morse started the season like a house on fire but finishes with a disappointing .215/.270/.381 line.

Orioles manager Buck Showalter remained hopeful Friday that Mike Morse would make it to New York in time for Saturdays' afternoon tilt against the Yankees.

Morse, who was acquired from the Mariners on Friday, is expected to function as the O's primary DH for the remainder of the season. While he's hitting a disappointing .226/.283/.410 with 13 homers and 27 RBI on the year, he adds another element of right-handed power into the Orioles lineup.

Orioles acquired 1B/OF Michael Morse from the Mariners for OF Xavier Avery.

The O's are hoping Morse is more of the .296/.345/.516 hitter he was over the previous three season as opposed to the .226/.283/.410 batter of 2013. He's likely to give them more than what they've received out of the DH spot this season (.217 average, .672 OPS), and he didn't cost much, so it's worth a shot.

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that the Orioles have acquired Michael Morse in a trade with the Mariners.

There's no word yet on what they gave up, but multiple outlets are reporting that the deal is done. Morse is hitting just .226/.283/.410 with 13 homers over 76 games this season, but he batted .296/.345/.516 over the previous three campaigns and the O's hope he'll satisfy their need for a right-handed hitter.
