Sources: Yankees, 1B Morrison agree to deal

The New York Yankees have agreed to a minor league deal with first baseman Logan Morrison, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Friday.

The deal includes an opt-out date of July 1, and Morrison will make $1 million if he's added to the major league roster, sources told Passan.

Morrison hit .239 with 15 home runs and 39 RBIs in 95 games for the Minnesota Twins in 2018 before he was sidelined by a torn labrum. He had surgery in August that was expected to keep him out for eight months, and he used the rehab time to retool his swing to better resemble that of 2017, when he hit 38 home runs for the Tampa Bay Rays.
