Charlie Morton News: Shipped to Detroit

The Tigers acquired Morton from the Orioles on Thursday in exchange for left-hander Micah Ashman, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

The Orioles will unload Morton after he put up a 5.42 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 101.1 innings across 23 appearances (17 starts). Despite the overall struggles as a starter, the 41-year-old could stick in the rotation for Detroit since he has a 3.88 ERA in his past 11 outings.
