Mike Morgan (baseball)
Michael Thomas Morgan (born October 8, 1959) is a former right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball. He played for twelve different teams over 25 years, and is one of 29 players in baseball history to appear in Major League baseball games in four decades (1978–2002).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Most Franchises Played For )〕 Upon his retirement, Morgan held the major league record for most major league teams played for (12), but this record was surpassed by Octavio Dotel in 2012. Because of this, Morgan was nicknamed "The Nomad" by his teammates due to his constant travel from team to team.
==Major League debut==
After attending Valley High School in Las Vegas, Nevada and pitching for the baseball team, Morgan was selected by the Oakland Athletics on June 6, 1978 in the 1st Round (fourth overall) of the Major League Draft. Morgan made his major league debut on June 11, throwing a complete game in a 3-0 loss to Scott McGregor and the Baltimore Orioles. After losing his first three starts in Oakland, Morgan was sent down to AAA Vancouver for the rest of the season, going 5-6 with a 5.58 earned run average (ERA) in 92 innings pitched. Although he had put up less than spectacular numbers as an 18-year-old, including an alarming strikeout-to-walk ratio of 0.5:1 (31 strikeouts and 62 walks), he was clearly on the fast track.
After starting the 1979 season with the AAA Ogden A's, Morgan was called up again to the big club after posting a 5-5 record with a 3.48 ERA in 101 innings. However, he again appeared overmatched, finishing the season 2-10 for the A's. Morgan then spent the next two seasons in the minor leagues. After finishing another unspectacular season in 1980, going 6-9 back at Ogden, Oakland traded Morgan on November 3 to the New York Yankees for 33-year-old infielder, Fred Stanley. Thus was the start of Morgan's vagabond career. The Yankees then demoted Morgan and assigned him to AA Nashville where he posted an 8-7 record with a 4.42 ERA in 169 innings.
