Morris was diagnosed with a right groin strain and might only miss a few days, MLB.com's Joe Frisaro reports.
He left Tuesday's game with the injury, but it sounds like he'll be back by the start of next week. While Morris won't offer much for fantasy owners in the way of saves or wins, he has been excellent as the team's setup man since coming over from the Pirates in June, posting a 0.48 ERA in 37.2 innings.

Morris left the Marlins on Tuesday to get his right hip examined by team doctors back in South Florida, Juan C. Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
President of Baseball Operations Michael Hill said that while he didn't think Morris was dealing with a major concern, the Marlins didn't want to jump to any conclusions about his status until test results are received. Since coming over from the Pirates in June, Morris has been a godsend for the Marlins as the primary setup man for closer Steve Cishek, posting an 0.48 ERA during his tenure with Miami.

Marlins acquired RHP Bryan Morris from the Pirates in exchange for the Marlins' Competitive Balance Round A selection in the 2014 Draft.
The pick is the 39th overall selection. Morris holds a 3.46 ERA over 81 relief appearances since the beginning of the 2011 season, but he's also struck out just 57 over 93 2/3 frames and has a 5.01 FIP. Getting a top-40 draft pick for him looks like a wise move on the Pirates' part. Morris will join the Marlins and Monday and will be used in a setup role.
