Charlie Morton blanked the Diamondbacks for seven innings to pick up a victory on Thursday night. It was a 2-0 game when Morton left, but the Braves scored four times in the top of the eighth. That ended up being a very good thing, as Mark Reynolds hit a three-run homer in a four-run bottom of the eighth before Mike Gonzalez quieted the Arizona offense. The Braves ended up winning 6-4. Morton’s best outing as a major leaguer still might be his last for a while. He’s likely to head back to Triple-A when Tom Glavine is activated. (Rotoworld) However, Morton may finally be getting into a groove at the major league level as he’s given up just two runs over 14 innings in his last two starts. He should stick in the rotation the rest of the season as the Braves look toward 2009.(Rotowire)
