The Daily Chop: Notes for Game 3, Morton back in LA, Potential for WS, and more

Charlie Morton has one of the most unique careers in baseball history. His first nine seasons in the major leagues produced mixed results, but everything changed for the right-hander in 2017. Morton signed with the Houston Astros, who made some adjustments and helped the 33-year-old become one of the best pitchers in baseball. Those efforts culminated in a World Series victory that saw Morton pitch the final four innings of Game 7, allowing just one run to the vaulted Dodgers. This performance placed Morton in Astros lore, but also cemented his legacy in Chavez Ravine.
