Michael Morse is not in the Mariners' lineup Tuesday due to his nagging right quad injury.

Morse originally suffered the injury in late May, and he's been unable to totally shake it. The M's have admitted that they would have placed him on the DL earlier had they not been dealing with other injuries, and they're probably wishing they would have gone ahead and done it, anyway. Morse was out testing the quad prior to Tuesday's game and is hoping to be back in the lineup soon.

Michael Morse (quad) returned to the Mariners' lineup Friday.

Morse was scratched from Wednesday's lineup due to ongoing issues with his right quad, but was able to return following the Mariners' off-day. He finished 1-for-3 with a double and is batting just .154 (2-for-13) over his last seven games.

Michael Morse is not in the Mariners' lineup Wednesday due to ongoing issues with his right quad.

Morse returned to action just under a week ago after missing a week of action, but it appears he's not totally over his quad issue yet. He was spotted taking early batting practice and doesn't appear to need a DL stint, but it's not clear if he'll be back in the lineup Friday.

Michael Morse is back in the Mariners' lineup Thursday.

Morse hasn't played since May 28 due to a strained right quad, but he's ready to give it a go. He's in the DH spot Thursday, so it appears he's not quite ready to play the field just yet. Morse returns to a .254/.321/.468 batting line with 11 homers and 21 RBI.

Michael Morse (quad) hopes to rejoin the lineup in the next few days.

Morse is able to hit with no issues, but running is still problematic for his strained right quad. He could be available to pinch-hit Tuesday, though, before returning to the lineup before the end of the week.

Michael Morse (quad) hopes to return to the lineup by the middle of the week.

Morse missed his fifth straight start Monday due to a straight right quad, but he worked out in the pool and took batting practice prior to the game. As long as he doesn't have a setback, fantasy owners can count on having him in a few days.

Michael Morse (quad) is with the Mariners for Friday's series opener against the Twins, but isn't ready to return to the starting lineup.

Michael Morse - OF - Mariners

Mariners manager Eric Wedge is hopeful that Michael Morse's (quad) absence is "something minimal, in 3-5 day range."

Morse had tested on his strained left quad Wednesday, and evidently they didn't reveal anything too bad. The unfortunate thing is that the M's also have Justin Smoak (oblique) banged up, so Morse could be placed on the DL if his recovery drags on at all.

Michael Morse is day-to-day after being diagnosed with a strained right quad.

Morse suffered the injury while rounding third base during the fourth inning of Tuesday's game. It's good that they're calling him day-to-day for now, but we should know more about how long he might be out after he's re-evaluated.

Michael Morse left Tuesday's game against the Padres after four innings with an apparent injury.

Michael Morse - OF - Mariners

Michael Morse went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in Monday's win over the Padres.

The M's hit three over the boards against Clayton Richard, including Morse's blast in the first inning. "The Beast" has been streaky this season, and he's sporting a pretty uninspiring .250/.314/.465 batting line overall, but it's come along with 11 dingers and 21 RBI. He should continue to provide some pop for fantasy owners.

Morse was scratched from Friday's game with irritation in one of his eyes, but he'll be fine. The outfielder is batting .254/.316/.493 with 10 homers this season.
