Catcher Jobduan Morales - acquired from Miami in the Justin Ruggiano trade - has been spending some time at 1B for Tri-City.
The Troy Record's Ed Weaver:
He could be in a higher league but the Astros wanted him to work on his throwing and play a little first base.
He started at first base for the first time this season two weeks ago and made two leaping catches of line drives.
“That felt good,” he said.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
