Will retire after relief appearance
Morton will not make a start for Atlanta this week, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Morton reunited with Atlanta by signing a major-league deal Monday following his release from the Tigers. He is expected to pitch at some point this week as a send-off before retirement, but the appearance will come out of the bullpen. The 41-year-old Morton has posted a 5.89 ERA and 148:71 K:BB over 140.2 innings between the Orioles and Tigers in 2025.

Returning to Atlanta
Atlanta signed Morton to a one-year contract Monday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
Анализ
Morton is expected to officially report to the team Tuesday, and manager Brian Snitker said he's unsure whether the veteran right-hander will make a start this week. The 41-year-old has not announced whether he intends to call it a career after this season, but if he does it would allow him to retire as a member of the organization that drafted him and where he spent five major-league seasons. Morton holds a 5.89 ERA and 148:71 K:BB over 140.2 innings between the Orioles and Tigers in 2025.

Hit hard in loss
Morton (9-11) allowed six runs on five hits across just 1.1 innings to take the loss Friday against Atlanta. He walked two and struck out two.
Анализ
Morton struggled badly in his shortest start of the year. The veteran righty has turned in a few nice outings since joining the Tigers at the trade deadline, but he's mostly been underwhelming with a 7.09 ERA across 39.1 innings in nine appearances. Morton is slated to make one more regular-season start Thursday against the Guardians. The 41-year-old will likely shift to the bullpen in the playoffs given his struggles as a starter, if he makes the postseason roster at all.
