Logan Morrison (knee) went 2-for-5 with a pair of singles Monday in his first rehab game with High-A Jupiter.

Morrison, who is coming back from knee surgery, served as the designated hitter. The 25-year-old is permitted to spend 20 days on his rehab assignment and will likely need most of it to shake the rust and get comfortable. However, assuming all goes well, he should join the Marlins' lineup in early June.

Logan Morrison (knee) is slated to begin a rehab assignment with High-A Jupiter on Monday.

Morrison has been playing in extended spring training games lately and hasn't had any setbacks with his surgically-repaired knee. With his 20-day rehab clock started on Monday, he'll be activated no later than early June as long as he doesn't have a setback.
May 19 - 1:03 PM

Marlins manager Mike Redmond said Tuesday that he's unsure when Logan Morrison (knee) will begin a rehab assignment.

Morrison is playing in extended spring training games, but the Marlins want him to get more at-bats. "He hasn’t had many at-bats so I don’t know how far out he is before he starts his 20-day rehab," Redmond said. Barring a setback, LoMo should return sometime next month.

Logan Morrison (knee) went 2-for-3 with a homer and a walk during an extended spring training game on Friday.

Morrison, who is coming back from surgery to repair a torn patellar tendon in his right knee, is expected to be ready for a minor league rehab assignment next week. While he'll likely need a lengthy rehab stint and quite a few at-bats before he's ready to return to the Marlins' lineup, he's worthy of stashing now in deeper mixed leagues. Look for him to return to action at the beginning of June.
May 10 - 8:27 PM

Logan Morrison (knee) will begin playing in extended spring training games Tuesday.

It will be his first game action since last July. Morrison, who is coming back from surgery to repair a torn patellar tendon on his right knee, could be ready for an official minor league rehab assignment in the next week or so if all goes well. He's likely looking at a return at the end of May or early June.
May 7 - 10:58 AM

Logan Morrison (knee) is shooting to begin a rehab assignment on May 10.

Morrison, who is coming off of surgery to repair a torn patella tendon, still isn't running the bases, but it sounds like that should be just around the corner. He would figure to need most, if not all, of the allotted 20 days for a rehab assignment, so we're still looking at a likely return in early June for the first baseman.
Apr 26 - 12:10 PM

Marlins placed 1B Logan Morrison on the 60-day disabled list with a right knee injury.

LoMo's recovery from last September's surgery to repair a torn patella tendon has gone slowly, and he'll spend the first couple months on the DL while Casey Kotchman fills in at first base. The 25-year-old has been limited to anti-gravity treadmill running.
Mar 31 - 10:25 AM

Logan Morrison (knee) is scheduled to begin running on the field next week.

Morrison underwent surgery in September to repair a torn patella tendon in his right knee and has been limited to anti-gravity treadmill running so far in Marlins camp. The first baseman is currently aiming to join the Marlins' starting lineup at some point in the middle of May.
Mar 28 - 10:55 AM

Logan Morrison (knee) will start running on a treadmill Thursday.

Morrison is currently working his way back from September surgery to repair a torn patella tendon in his right knee. The exact timetable for his return depends on how his knee responds in the coming weeks, but he's aiming for around mid-April.
Feb 21 - 10:25 AM

Logan Morrison (knee) has been cleared to begin running on a treadmill.

The 25-year-old is five months removed from surgery to repair a torn patella tendon. LoMo's agent told Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald that his client should be ready to join the Marlins' starting lineup around April 15.
Feb 19 - 4:43 PM

Logan Morrison hopes to be cleared to begin jogging after having his surgically-repaired right knee examined in Colorado on Tuesday.

It would be a step in the right direction, but Morrison's status for Opening Day remains in question. The Marlins signed Casey Kotchman to a minor league deal Friday in order to give them some protection at first base.
Feb 15 - 2:52 PM

Logan Morrison (knee) still hasn’t been cleared to run and said he "won’t know for awhile" if he'll be ready for Opening Day.

Morrison is five months removed from offseason knee surgery, and remains without a timetable to return. He isn't ready for spring training, and his availability for the start of the season is in question. With Morrison sidelined, the Marlins will give Joe Mahoney and Greg Dobbs an extended look at first base.
Feb 10 - 4:36 PM

Logan Morrison (knee) is not expected to be running at full strength at the start of camp.

Morrison is currently working his way back from his second knee surgery in as many offseasons. He may not be cleared to ramp up his rehab until the end of the month, so his readiness for the start of the season is an open question. "I think it's premature at this point to say exactly what that timetable is until he gets on the field," said Marlins president Larry Beinfest. Joe Mahoney is expected to get a look at first base in the meantime while Greg Dobbs and Austin Kearns will also get some work there.
Feb 5 - 12:29 PM

According to Juan C. Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Logan Morrison (knee) has yet to be cleared for his offseason training program.

Morrison was limited to just 93 games in 2012 and is coming off his second knee surgery in as many offseasons. He won't be ready for the start of spring training in February, and his availability for Opening Day is in question. The Marlins don't have any obvious in-house candidates to replace Morrison should he miss extended time going into the season. Greg Dobbs and Joe Mahoney are behind him at first base.
