May 24 Morrison is back in the lineup Thursday against the Gaints, Juan C. Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

Recommendation: Morrison has been receiving regular rest with a lingering knee injury bothering him, but he started six of the last seven games. With Gaby Sanchez demoted, he's been playing more first base, and the lesser toll on his knee should allow him to play more often.

May 22 1B Logan Morrison made his first error at first base Monday night, misplaying a ground ball in the ninth inning. Manager Ozzie Guillen didn't hold back his thoughts when asked about Morrison's defensive skills. "He's better (there) than in left. And he's not that good either," Guillen said. "For some reason, people in this organization think LoMo is a Don Mattingly in first base. I ain't seen it yet and I hope to see it soon." Guillen's main concern is that Morrison's sore right knee doesn't get worse from playing first base. "Playing first base is not very easy," Guillen said. "You have to use your body. A lot of people say, 'Well, he don't have to move.' They're wrong. They're very wrong. That base you move the most of any position besides pitcher and catcher. Because the ground ball to third base, second base you move. Fly ball to left field, you're moving all the time. Everybody at their position stays and watches the play. That's why I kind of worry about it." Yahoo! Sports
