Logan Morrison (knee) could return to the lineup as soon as Thursday after being diagnosed only with a bruised right patella and chronic patella tendinitis. The diagnosis doesn't sound all that great, but it could have been much worse. He might be available to pinch-hit in the series against the Braves and could be back as soon as Thursday. "(Dr. Lee Kaplan) took all the swelling out, so it feels 10 times better than what it did," said Morrison. "I thought I was done for the year, and they he took it out. It was kind of sore. It's nothing that wouldn't let me play soon."
