Pirates P Morton goes to DL with shoulder fatigue

Baseball Betting Lines

05/28/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Pirates placed pitcher Charlie Morton on the 15-day disabled list Friday with right shoulder fatigue.

The move comes one day after Morton gave up seven runs (five earned) in two innings against the Reds. He took the loss to fall to 1-9 this season, and has a 9.35 earned run average in 10 starts.

"Charlie has been battling mild shoulder discomfort and fatigue off and on for the majority of the season," said Pirates general manager Neal Huntington. "Charlie has not wanted to use it as an excuse and has worked to pitch through it. Until now, we felt we could work through the issue without risking additional damage. We now feel that the best way to get Charlie back on track is to give his shoulder appropriate rest and recovery time to allow him to get back to 100 percent."

Also Friday, the Pirates selected reliever Steven Jackson from Triple-A Indianapolis. Jackson made 17 appearances for Indianapolis this season and posted a 3.42 ERA. The right-hander had a 3.14 ERA in 40 games for the Pirates last season.

Pittsburgh's starter for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs has yet to be announced.
