Hall of Fame second baseman Joe Morgan is set to receive a bone marrow transplant, according to Sports Illustrated.
Former Reds star Pete Rose revealed last weekend at his Reds Hall of Fame induction that his former teammate was in need of a bone marrow transplant because of an undisclosed medical condition.
Johnn Bench, Reds legend and former teammate of Morgan, confirmed that Morgan had a donor lined up and was preparing to receive the transplant.
“He’s getting his body prepared for that (the bone marrow transplant)," Bench said via SI Now.
