The Tiger veteran sat out Saturday’s game against Iowa as a precaution after crashing into the left field wall on Friday and sustaining a minor wrist injury. He was back in the lineup on Sunday, producing two hits and two RBI in the LSU thrashing of Sam Houston. An above average defender at first base (some evaluate him as gold glove caliber, but I don’t have him that brilliant), Morgan is limited defensively anywhere on the diamond by a well below average arm. However, he is not so limited in the batter’s box. He was a key contributor in the LSU lineup throughout the 2022 season, showing impactful on-base ability and high level bat-to-ball skills, slashing .324/.414/.462. He also impressed at the USA CNT Trials last July (.308 AVG and .438 OBP). In the past I’ve seen a lot of noise and funk in a near violent-looking load, but it was much quieter in Round Rock during this latest look. His approach has always been selective aggressive and he excels at getting the barrel to the ball across all four quadrants, making him a threat to drive the ball to any part of the field. On the down side, his hard contact and over the fence power output is light for a corner profile at present. With that said, there is still plenty of time and at-bats to properly slot Morgan into a likely draft bucket, but at this point early Day Two is the likely landing spot.

USA CNT: Morgan was a key contributor in the LSU lineup throughout the 2022 season, showing impactful on-base ability and high level bat-to-ball skills over his 62 starts, slashing .324/.414/.462. Like Ahuna, there is a lot of noise in his load, but he excels at getting wood to horsehide across all four quadrants, making him a threat to drive the ball to any part of the field. The power output is light for a corner profile at present, but Morgan is capable of producing high-level exit velocity when he squares one up, and it's conceivable, given his contact skills and ability to produce hard contact, that he's only a few tweaks away from emerging as a more consistent home run threat. Defensively, Morgan has his moments — flashing soft hands — but he needs further reps to refine the finer points of the three-spot, from scoops to footwork. He moves well enough to shift to the grass, but would be limited to left field due to his below-average arm strength. There is still work to do in order to properly slot Tre' into a likely draft bucket, but through his impressive at bats at trials (.308 average and .438 on-base percentage along with several impressive drawn-out at bats fighting off good stuff) and solid production thus far at LSU, there's reason to be excited.

With superior bat to ball skills, even better than those of Tiger teammate Doughty, Morgan uses all fields and consistently produces hard contact from foul line to foul line. He's super twitchy with a funky, almost violent load, yet he somehow manages to sync it all up. Morgan will get into trouble from time to time when he loses his patience at the plate and looks to ambush any fastball when he would be better off just getting HIS fastball. On these occasions he gets big and pulls off the ball. But his bat to ball skill is so great, he puts the ball in play without the intended pop behind it. At 6-foot-1, 185 pounds he produces below average game power, especially for his position, but did produce some high level exit velocities last weekend. His top two were 105.1 and 104.7 mph. He showed plus range at first base on both ground balls and popups, along with high level instincts, but he can get wild with his decisions and did look a bit sloppy at times this weekend. He also tended to forehand everything instead of backhanding short hop picks. Morgan also has a well below average arm (30/35 grade on the pro scale) with below average accuracy. With all of that taken into account, he may profile better in left field at the pro level, but as a 2023 draft eligible there is still plenty of time to figure all of that out.
