Morse (oblique) was left off the Giants' NLDS roster, Mark Zuckerman of CSNWashington.com reports. Manager Bruce Bochy expressed optimism that Morse would be over his oblique injury by the start of the postseason, but that never materialized. With Morse unavailable, the Giants will likely have to make due with some combination of Travis Ishikawa and Juan Perez in left field, both of whom represent a big downgrade offensively. Gary Brown will assume his spot on the NLDS roster.
