The Marlins have called up Logan Morrison with Chris Coghlan going on the DL with a knee injury. Morrison has been playing LF for the last few weeks down in AAA New Orleans. He was hitting .307/.427/.487 with 6hr 48bb and 35k in 238 at bats.

There were rumors for the last week that Morrison would be getting the call as soon as the Marlins unload 3b Jorge Cantu. Looks like the call came before any trades were made.

Here's the reason why...
Chris Coghlan has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his knee and will be placed on the disabled list Tuesday.
Coghlan suffered the unfortunate injury while trying to slam a pie into the face of teammate Wes Helms after Sunday’s late victory over the Braves. “When Wes hit the walk-off, I went to pie him in the face,” Coghlan said. “When I jumped I landed wrong on my knee.”

Chris, AJ Burnett has honed his pie tossing act over several years. You can’t just decide you’re gonna toss pies out of the blue one day.

Pies

The team has banned pie celebrations, no joke. Also, they better not platoon Morrison with Bonifacio, which has been reported.

can't wait

Later today on Project Prospect: Steve Carter breaks down Chris Coghlan’s pie-throwing mechanics to explain why we shouldn’t have been surprised that he suffered a serious injury

The problem is that the pie was shaped like an inverted O

Cool

Hopefully I’ll see him tomorrow night at Barry Bonds Stadium.

Actually...

I hope they don’t turn him into another Klesko by continuing to stick him in left…he needs to migrate back to first.

fantasy

Does anyone see him as a possible fantasy option, that is in a league that counts both SO and OBP?
Where do you stick this guy in the lineup, two hole I’m guessing?

I do

Especially in an OBP league. Though, it obviously depends on your league and how deep it goes.

LOVE him in an OBP league

And I agree that he would make a really good #2 hitter. You need your highest OBP guy hitting right in front of your best hitter.
